Also, I have a weird association with books and pizza. I grew up in the era of the pizza hut book club. And you bet your ass I always earned that personal pan pizza

Kidding aside, I found so much joy in games as a kid. And I want to bring that same joy to others.

Hey Unreal friends, if you're seeing TSR artifacts around objects in motion, such as foliage moving or while quickly rotating the camera around a character, give this flag a try! It's resolved a lot of the noisy issues I've seen with TSR in ue5 #unreal #ue5 #gamedev

You know that thing you do where you slide a butter knife on the side of the peanut butter jar to get the last bit off the knife? I just did that on my coffee cup. FU daylight savings time

Oh you want to hire me back? Fantastic, my salary requirements have tripled!

"I think you're missing some context" is the most boss way to say "you don't know what the fuck you're talking about" #justgamedevthings

I'm still surprised sometimes when I make a work decision and people are all "yeah that sounds solid, let's do that" as if I have any idea what I'm doing. #gamedev #gameart

Gary McKay is a coward. One that's unable to deliver bad news in a straightforward and concise way without spinny bullshit. Gary you have a bunch of colleagues who will wake up tomorrow wondering how they're going to pay their bills. Tell them in a way that respects them.

It's that time again where all us artists try to gobble up as many new followers as we can 😜 #portfolioday

My wife and I are watching Lost for the first time. Just wrapping season 5. And every few episodes it's like I can hear the collective internet of the past screaming "what the actual fuck?!?" In my ear

My wife and I leveled up our coffee game this year for Xmas. And I think it's an ideal time to enter my hipster artist era

It's that time of year where I house enough ferrero rochers to fill a semi truck. And I convince myself they're healthy because there's one hazelnut worth of protein in each thing

This may be horrifying to some, but I kinda miss when I was a kid and company would just show up at your door. Today, being social requires more coordination and red tape than it used to. And because of that I think we're all a little less social

Anyone else feel like streaming services are sniffing their own farts with this "#1 on Netflix!" business? You gathered the data, created a movie that matched your data, and then pushed a full screen banner for it. And now you celebrate that people clicked it?
