Shocked and saddened to hear the awful news about Pat.
Back when I was doing podcasting, we'd do a couple of episodes together now and then. He hosted FG once. He welcomed me to each event when I'd go back to London and was incredible support when I knew nobody. A very passionate & lovely person.

Literally the funniest (and best) thing to ever come out of a game I've made... a fan Limp Bizkit combo AMV-like video. I can't stop laughing, amazing work.

Probably to no surprise 😅we've pushed TANUKI back a bit into 2026.
However, I recently finished one of my first (kinda full playthroughs) and wow, it's a nice way to end the year. To see all of the team's incredible hard work come so far and together. I'm so proud of how lil' Pon is shaping up 💌

Still some serious deadlines before the end of the year, but going to start hunkering down for winter and playing stuff that I haven't had time for.

Bruce is an absolute hero and has always inspired and supported me. It’s not a surprise as one of the top creatives this would be his response 🔥
If you need some catharsis today, I talked to Bruce Straley about generative AI in gaming:
"I don’t know who wants it, I don’t know who’s asking for it, I don’t know who’s pushing for it, but I don’t think it’s the way as a human species we need to be evolving.” www.polygon.com/bruce-strale...
