Hi, you can just call me tuglaw.

I'm a portuguese game designer, and I've worked on a bunch of them in the past 14 years; almost all different genres too.

The latest one was Avakin Life, in which I made new features and events for 4 years, and I'm now looking for new opportunities.

The East LA level in Tony Hawk's American Sk8land has an elaborate secret involving an invisible rail that clips you through geometry to an out-of-bounds section of the map, revealing a message telling you to hide in the bushes in the Beverly Hills map.

When you do so, the game plays a fart noise.

I’m really excited to share that I won the Frank R. Paul Award for Best Magazine Cover Art! My painting Stasis, a self-portrait about invisible illness, was featured on the cover of Uncanny Magazine Issue 58 🖤

let it be said: you cannot make an entire cultural ecosystem out of friendships and connections. the more money enters into the picture, the more things have to become formalized. a lot of people refuse to accept this idea and still think of themselves as small. this has caused a lot of problems

The orchard in the Mother & Baby Home where I was born has been abandoned since the 90s but still bears fruit, which, abandoned, falls to the ground and rots. The nuns' beloved greenhouse is wrecked but still has dessicated grapes hanging there. If I was a novelist I would find a metaphor here.

😈 Maleficent, the evil queen, had her goblins searching for Sleeping Beauty for 16 years.

🛑 BUT…. they were looking for a baby the whole time. Acceptance criteria fail!

🧠 This is why it’s so important for villains to leverage AGILE practices. Don’t let this become your team. My new ecourse will

Forget calling in sick. As an artist, we should be allowed to call in creative.

Sorry boss. Can't come in today. The muse has called me and I must listen.
