I didn't make a 2024 videogame visual reel because of the strike, so...here, have both 2024 *and* 2025!

For any new folks: hi there! I'm Jett, a British-American voice actor based in California.

Signs it's a "solo-written by Jett" script:

- "Cozy" game with a romance route? Yeah, sure, but you're also getting (mild) emotional damage
- Area nerd jokes about medical complexity (same, bud)
- One schnorf, as a treat
A snippet of a script written in black pseudo-code on a white field reading as follows: "My mom was working a night shift, emergency services hadn't arrived yet, our neighbors were busy with Priya, and I was trying to go back to my dad when.." "The silence is thick for a few moments." "It only grazed me, really." "[REDACTED] almost laughs through the comment, to which you angle your head a little quizzically at his dull-looking left eye. He lets out a soft snort." "Fair point."

"Hey, kid. You're a classical pianist. I think you'd be good at dubbing."

Lifelong "would get horrific secondhand anxiety/embarrassment on behalf of actors whilst seeing theatre/watching films/etc" nerd, suddenly experiencing how actors *aren't* getting bludgeoned by either of those whilst working:

These two being littermates = both are wholly unbothered about getting lightly chewed on by their brother.
Two kittens half-standing in a cat tree. Teddy, a fluffy grey tabby, is lightly gnawing on Ben (his brother, a white cat with grey tabby markings and greenish-orange eyes) whilst Ben has one hand and his tail dangling out of the tree.

If I had a nickel for every time J played a horrible fox-man in a game made at least in part by @seraten04.bsky.social, I'd have 2 nickels.

Doctor D's awful, but dangit—J makes him so fun to go "Euuugh" at. 😂

Fantastical medical malpractice! Flirting feat. a side of threatened violence! Wahoo(?)!

You can totally trust Dwight! Yeah. Let's go with that.
I'm honored to have been trusted with his voice for the new game The Masterpiece by Hyakuten Games:

Thrilled to announce that I voice the definitely-not-stabby doctor(?) Remy in Hyakuten Games' "The Masterpiece!"

Working with this team's always a joy, and I'm so grateful to have gotten to pop back into the world of "Royal Duality"/"The Deity Machine!" 🐊

A role announcement graphic for Remy in Hyakuten Games' "The Masterpiece" (part of their "The Deity Machine" series) including their sprite, a link to the Hyakuten Games itch.io page, and the information that Remy's voice actor is Jett Barker. Remy's a crocodilian humanoid with greenish-grey skin, green and yellow hair, green eyes, and dressed in an off-the-shoulder green, black, and yellow outfit. There's text with a quote from them reading "Nice to meet ya - hope I don't eat ya!" alongside the Hyakuten Games logo and the URL hyakuten-games.itch.io.

If you like Studio Ghibli, Knives Out, The Owl House, or Frankenstein, here’s what the creators are saying about A/I.

🚫 SAY NO TO GEN A/I 🚫
"Whoever creates this stuff has no idea what pain is. [...] I never wish to incorporate this technology into my work at all. I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself. - Hayao Miyazaki, co-founder of Studio Ghibli was "utterly disgusted" when he was shown an A/I demo in 2016 Yeah, f*** A/I. It's something that's making everything worse in every single way - I don't get it. I mean, I get it in a 'This makes sense to save money by not paying artists' way? But then, what the f*** are we doing? Is this where we want to be?" RIAN JOHNSON ON THE USE OF A/I Hollywood Dana Terrace Unsubscribe from Disney+, Pirate Owl House. I don't care.

Patron Saint of Hating ChatGPT
An anthropomorphic coyote in peasant’s garb stabs a massive pencil into a shattered, sparking ChatGPT logo. The coyote is grinning, with patchwork wings splayed behind them, and their pose is reminiscent of St Michael Slaying the Devil. Behind them is a marble archway, bursting with pencils, paints, and creative implements. Same image but with a black background behind the marble arch.

Yes, you *can* use "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" in order to include all 26 English letters, but why would you when "Sphinx of the black quartz, judge my vow" exists?

Hey folks, I often do posts calling for indie developers to link me their games so I can signal boost them. Today I want to do something similar for all trans creatives.

If you are a trans game dev, artist, writer, streamer or YouTuber, reply here with a link to your work. Only one rule: no GenAI.💜

*Please* keep an eye on "Rigmarole!"

The plot's bananas (and reduced me to multiple bouts of horrific wheeze-laughter when Rose first broke down the story beats for me), it pulls from a slew of real-life shenanigans, the cast's super compelling, and it's VERY 🏳️‍🌈!

Announcing my new project, Rigmarole! 💙🐈✨

A point-and-click adventure visual novel about a NY-Italian gyaru and her fruity mahjong buddies driving across the country to go snatch back her Nonna's cat from her gay homophobe rock star cousin!

priro.itch.io/rigmarole
This one's gonna be a wild ride.
a classical lolita (pale, redhead with hime cut, greek jewish) , a gyaru (sicilian, fake blonde hair, medium tan), and a visual kei goth (dark-skinned, textured hair in a sujimori style, black) in a paper-scrap art style looking up at a little cat jumping over them. they are surrounded by a collage of italian cookies and the title "rigmarole!" is placed in an arch above them.

Writing something a little silly in a modern setting has given me too much power, because it means I can reasonably justify banter like this:
Screenshot of text written in pseudo-code intended for use in a facsimile of a text conversation between two people (identified here as "vi" and "la"). It reads as follows: vi "Might as well add another quarter to the Undiagnosed But We're Pretty Sure jar." la "for which one of us?" vi "Yes."

"No one is angry about games not containing gen AI" is such a hell of a good point. It is incredibly off-putting to many customers, an absolute deal-breaker, yet there is no flip side to that, no consumer base clamouring for it, no demand. They can only try to wear people down into accepting it.

I saw this and had two thoughts,
No one is angry about games not containing gen AI, so if you wanna avoid being a part of the conversation it's easy.
But, since you have decided to weigh in on the conversation I guess we'll see gen AI made cosmetics in helldivers soon then

I voice Kian in Enough With Living As A Hero, an upcoming romance visual novel! I love this silly little necromancer so much, and it's a huge honor to be voicing him!

(Also, huge shoutout to Lee and Astelus, who created this graphic and drew me as Kian respectively. I appreciate it so much!)

Area child oblivious to the fact that creepily staring down at the fully-grown catling visiting him + his brother (who wedged herself onto a middle shelf in a bid to prevent him from following her) will not help her feel less disturbed by his smallness:
Ben, a white and grey tabby kitten with brownish-amber eyes, sitting on an elevated closet shelf next to a spare HEPA filter and a table lamp. A 4-year-old calico is on the shelf below him, softly growling.
