For any folks who may not know me from the other place, I’m Will 👋 I’ve been making games since I was a teen, most notably being a big part of Cult of the Lamb. Now I’m in Scotland working in AAA for a while. I post a lot of silly stuff tbh.

No but mine insists on sleeping under the blanket and worming her way up and out of it when she gets too hot and laying her head next to mine like a person 😂

The first time I recieved money for working on any kind of game I was 15, nearly 20 years ago. Absolutely wild to think I've been making and releasing games commercially for that long.

I really think it should be illegal to put up job postings and not give a general figure or range of what the pay would be.

We stand in solidarity with employees and ex-employees at Build a Rocket Boy as they file legal claims through our union and publish an open letter, condemning the way in which they’ve been mistreated and discarded by the studio’s millionaire executives.

factually correct. It’s so much better than it had any right being.

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."
