I'm so thankful to have had the chance to come back on the @switchheadz.bsky.social podcast and talk about Monochrome Heights. Without that community I wouldn't have been able to make and finish this game. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtiW...

Sadly, my contract with Blizzard ended in September. That means I'm looking for fulltime or contract work as a senior writer or narrative designer. If you need someone who can write sharp characters, poetic prose, and emotional stories, I'm available! www.hazelmonforton.com

It's #portfolioday! I'm presently a senior narrative designer at Blizzard, but before that I was at Bungie and Arkane. I wrote for the Writer's Guild award-nominated Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, and a bunch of critically acclaimed seasons and expansions in Destiny 2.

Shoutout to Elemental Gimmick Gear. Beautiful, offbeat and (a bit) janky, it quickly became one of my favourite Dreamcast games. 🙂‍↕️

Despite being a Jared Leto hater I saw this because Tron and unemployed and can confirm opening night 7:30PM the theater was half empty.

‘Tron: Ares’ grossed $14.3M in the film’s domestic opening day

That’s less than ‘Morbius’
