That's my last day in the bag at UploadVR. You'll see a couple more pieces go up with my name on in the next few days, but that's otherwise a wrap. Still feels strange saying goodbye. Three years on the team as staff, two years freelancing prior. I'll miss it, but it's the right move for me.
I've now beaten Age of Imprisonment and while I still enjoyed it, my thoughts haven't really changed. Metroid Prime 4 is next on the list
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is a very easy game to jump into when you wanna just "switch off." About 15 hours in now, nothing spectacular on the whole but does what I need it to

Hey game devs - don’t forget to add your Bluesky link to your Steam pages.

Woke up to see this absolutely horrifying news in Venezuela, do not forget this as Trump's allies try to deflect these crimes
Three million people live in Caracas, five million in the metro area. It's one of the densest cities in South America. Remember this in the morning when they try to spin this as anything other than a cold-blooded attack on a major civilian center.

Cancel the LA Olympics, scrap the World Cup, the United States cannot be a trusted part of the international community so long as the White House operates this violently and with impunity.

I had a good few of the VR games here on Quest already, but rebuying them in preparation for Steam Frame

Stop making excuses and get off Twitter
There have been no good reasons for staying on Twitter for years now, but at this point you will have to follow up any of your remaining excuses with “…and I don’t care about the child pornography.”
This does seem just a little bit bad! Idk the sort of thing you’d think politicians might distance themselves from or something!

Grok's new "feature" that allows users to undress women in photos posted to X is a new low for the platform. If you're somehow still active over there, I urge you to let this be your final straw.

2025 has been odd for me. Became UploadVR's Senior Editor, started my own site, and now I'm saying bye to both. Needed the change, thrilled to get that while staying in games. But after six years, the shift was always gonna feel strange.

You can't go wrong with a jea_rum commission, will always recommend
As 2025 end, I want to say a heart felt thank you for the people that impacted me this year. A kiss on the cheeks to the crew of @giantbomb.bsky.social that made this year worth remembering. These guys got me through a tough year by believing in my capabilities. (continued in the comments)

i think what gets overlooked is that part of the humor and charm of edits like these is that you're perfectly aware that someone sat down and spent their own time making it. they chose to do something cool or silly or stupid or genius, regardless of the results

that human element elevates the work
Who needs AI when we had stuff like this? I’ll take photoshop edits over the slop any day

Been playing Ambrosia SkyL Act One for the last hour and I'm really enjoying this so far. Great story with a strong emotional pull, lovely visuals, definitely invested. This is 100% screaming for a VR port

There is something unmistakably missing that should be here in Metroid Prime 4: Beyond.

This is awkward, but as of yesterday I'm no longer employed with Nightdive Studios. I'm currently looking for full-time work and would be happy to share more info via DMs. I'm also open to freelance work!
