Seems like a good time for an intro post.

I'm Jeff Webb, I'm a programmer in the games industry, where I mainly focus on systems, tools, and perf. I most recently shipped The Lampligthers League with Harebrained Schemes.

Shit shit shit.

Difficult realization that we're financially at our limit. I need work yesterday to support my wife and I. At this point, anything goes. Full time, part time, you pay and I code for you.

I'm a 20+ year pro software/gamedev in "Fake London" Canada

Something I don't think I've ever seen anyone talk about is this wonderful fourth wall breaking piece of tutorial dialog from Bangai-o Spirits for the DS. Putting known issues in your tutorial is certainly something:

I spend a lot of time thinking about (and when employed, working on) various performance related things. Seeing as I am *not* employed right now, I have nowhere for these thoughts to go so here's a thread on "how to" from my perspective.

Apparently my response to our studio shutdown is "learn more computer."

*Become more computer than ever before*

A great thread on project leadership. I think all of this goes doubly for prototype environments where progress can be entirely halted simply because no one wants to make a decision.

Lack of direction will kill all momentum and motivation on the team, leaving them frustrated and meandering.
A team can get really paralyzed waiting for things to be Decided™

One of the most valuable things a senior can do on a team during production is make quick decisions to "put stakes in the ground" even on topics that are not yet 100% confirmed or aligned, and then document/broadcast those decisions.

I got promoted to customer from Amazon Games. Can't say I didn't see this coming and I'm relieved that it's out there and official.

If anybody needs a content design wizard to make fun game loops or tell fun stories, hit me up! Think I'm gonna chill during my severance period though.

My studio Boss Fight was hit with an 'event' today, so if you're looking for some supremely smart and talented people to help make your game, let me know, I can hook you up.

Unfortunately the studio I was working at was closed this morning.

If anyone has a need for an engineer with a passion for performance and a pretty deep knowledge of Unity, you can find me on

Every next fest I have to relearn the lesson that no one supports inverting the camera y-axis in these demos.

Been lucky to have a part-time freelance gig that's ending soon & I'm looking for the next opportunity, hopefully f/t.

If you need a Technical Animator/Artist who loves being the bridge between animation, design, and engineers, give me a look / shout! Links in profile. Reposts appreciated. Thx!

Hey friends! I did a TEDx talk and it's now up on the TED Conferences YouTube. It's possibly the best and most important talk I've ever done.

I would ask that you watch it, and please SHARE it broadly and widely. Thank you! youtu.be/dVG8W-0p6vg #AI #Tech #TED
