Technical stuff: I started with some guitar and a looper pedal (hence the picture) and recorded it coming out of the amp on my phone then emailed it to myself and started playing around with it in Ableton using their pre-made sounds/samples. I also converted the guitar stuff into MIDI to play with.

The song title is about the grief of losing my youth and the world that surrounded it, but it’s in a major key because I’m still holding on to a grain of hope. It feels good to make stuff for me again!

we're doing an additional interview podcast every week now. For my first, I talked to @jasonschreier.bsky.social about how and why the video game business has changed so much in recent years www.404media.co/the-video-ga...

Video games are more popular than ever, but many of the biggest companies in the business seem like they are struggling to adapt and convert that popularity into stability and sustainability.

This is so disappointing. Some poor decisions at Microsoft.

I’m worried about what the purchase of EA will mean for the Sims and the future of the game industry in the U.S. in general. I think @lilsimsie.bsky.social really sums it up well…

Full timelapse of the abandoned warehouse level design block out is up on youtube! This time I did the music for it too. I kind of rushed myself with the music so it loops a lot, but it’s nice to use all my own content this time :)

Part 3 of the abandoned warehouse level blockout I’m working on. Its finally a warehouse! I’m also starting to improve how I record these videos to reduce my time editing out jerky camera moves. This one is also a bit longer than previous versions, so zone in and enjoy!
