Apparently these jobs are open internationally. Possibly perceived as "anti-NYC" to hire outsiders, but his job is to excel for his clients (the ppl of NYC). IME you get the best work from people who are excited about your values, & casting a wide net w/ the int'l appeal he's garnered is brilliant.

Have fun at GSC everyone. This was meant to be my first; was really looking forward to it but stuff's just gotten to weird down there for me.

I'll start with Renate Noel-Tagoe (@insertcat.bsky.social) our VFX artist.
I believe Mythmatch was Renate's first paid VFX work, but her talent was obvious in her portfolio. She started out making this building upgrade effect, which is a centerpiece in videos / trailers.

the moral of the story is don't test your game with the sound off ANISA 😤😤😤😤
Well since this is doing numbers on TikTok, might as well share it here. Watch me crash out over a bug found on steam next fest launch day 🫠

After attending MIGW I don't think I'm the only Canadian returning with unbridled jealousy over what Aus has going on in the indie space.
The AGDAs were the best awards show I've ever attended. The gov't support (& more importantly, understanding) of the games scene was unreal.
