Ending the work year feeling very thankful and unbelievably privileged to have worked with so many great people and talented teams who've trusted me with their games as a freelancer.
Shoutout to all of the press and creator pals who've believed in those titles and have shown them some love, too 💛

Our upcoming game The Hearth and Harbour is fully 2D, but with some neat tricks we’ve made it look 3D. Ethan, our environment artist, did this with a special type of texture called a Normal Map. (Thread! 1/7)

NEW: After my last piece about what's slowing down game development, folks wrote in to ask "why didn't you talk about bad leadership?"
It uhhhh never came up. So I returned to the well and asked devs to explain why better leadership—not AI or any other tool—is vital to efficient game development.

No tool—AI or otherwise—can speed up game development if leaders don't rise to the occasion.

Just heard Drew Struzan passed away 😞 His incredible work has given me and countless others so much awe, joy and inspiration!
I had posters of his work as a teen, I began using color pencils because I thought he used them too. Always inspired by him. Just utterly heart broken.
RIP Drew Struzan.
