Realized I haven’t even made an intro post yet 😆
I’m Kat, a Game Dev with a focus on 3D Characters, currently implementing Destiny 2 armors! Can’t show anything related to that just yet, but I’ll be sharing my past work on Pokémon GO, Star Wars, and FNAF. 💜 Hope to find more Game Devs like me here!

In two weeks, on November 7th, we are finally getting married! ❤️🤍🖤
We are doing courthouse style, and will follow up with a proper reception; if next year permits given the state of things. Been pretty heads down planning this all recently!

Sign our petition urging the US FTC to watch this deal closely. If left unchecked, this deal spells disaster for EA's workers and players alike, but there's still time to do something about it!

Make EA Better for Workers and Gamers - Not Billionaires
A group of investors - including the sovereign wealth fund of Saudi Arabia and Jared Kushner’s Affinity Partners - wants to buy Electronic Arts, concentrating even more power and wealth into the hands...

I’m really tired y’all
on the one hand, it has felt really reassuring to have a community of game people to navigate these brutal industry days.
on the other, it would be great if we could stop needing to collectively mourn the collapse of our livelihoods, health, and futures every other day of the week.

Project management for personal works means having a hard time forgiving oneself for not having enough energy or not being inspired while chipping away at what's left to do.
And still hoping for the best anyway

This is what happened with Clair Obscur - Expedition 33, and it’s just really disappointing to see outsourcers and contractors treated this way
Contractors don't get counted as "real devs" in the articles just so they can have a sensational headline.

I was trying to add shifty eye animations onto a character once, and instead of it being applied to just the eyes, it was their whole head. Just imagine someone’s head just spinning, darting around looking super possessed and twitchy
Games need to have an outtakes reel like DVDs used to back in the day.
Devs, quote this with some of the wacky things that have happened during development.
We could all use the laughs.

I had no idea this was coming out, saw it on Steam and took a chance on my first Story of Seasons game! I’ve been completely hyper fixated ever sense! Seriously, if you guys need a new cozy, relationship building game I can’t recommend this enough.

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
