Laura is one of the smartest, most incisive people I know, and a fantastic writer and narrative designer. Hire Laura, please. Or fund my game so I can hire Laura.

Learned that I am being laid off from Heart Machine, and will be leaving the studio later this month.

Do you need a contractor? I've got a track record of leading scope-friendly script revisions late in dev. I have also done a lot of consulting on new IPs and pitches/demos. Feel free to DM me!

w/o downloading anything new, where are you mentally?

A screenshot from The Ring, but instead of the ghost exiting the TV, a white cat has been photoshopped to look like it has crawled halfway out of the screen.

aesthetic != quality

there's lots of stuff out there that makes me madder than a wet hen, that I still don't consider to be "bad." my fury has its roots in my very specific aesthetic sensibilities!!

〽️ax krieger does the damn thing @maxkriegervg.bsky.social · 5d

as a lifelong critic, my best advice on this topic:

practice thinking from the perspective of other ppl. consider where they're coming from, why a piece might resonate w them.

this will help you differentiate between "not for me" and "it isn't good". be kind with the former, don't fear the latter!

Carolyn Petit @carolynmichelle.bsky.social · 5d

respectfully: no. develop your own taste, absolutely, but own it. it's fine to think that popular thing is bad. it's fine to not have an opinion too, but i see statements like this one all the time and i just want to push back a bit: there's nothing wrong with having the courage of your convictions.
