Hello! I'm David Koster, a junior Producer most recently in the role of Production Coordinator at Jim Gray Productions. Looking to connect with fellow game devs! In addition to game dev, I'm a hobby photographer, travel enthusiast, collect vinyl records.

Oh absolutely, I just love the novelty 😆 I don't even want to think of lugging it around or bringing it out in public

While I whole heatedly agree with you, as someone who uses a 32:9 monitor I think that thing is awesome lol

At this point in the job search I'm trying to shift priority to finding work outside of games, but the problem is I have spent my entire life raised around the games industry and everything else doesn't make sense to me 🫠 How to even start looking?

I don't have the proper words to say more than this now but

I was just laid off. My role at Giant Squid is being eliminated.

If your studio is looking for an environment artist, please let me know ASAP. I have 5+ years of experience.

thank you

the juxtaposition of these emails...

I've owned them all for years since they're always super cheap on sale on Steam, but haven't played them. The new Lego Batman announcement is sucking me in 😆

Trying to figure out what to play next:
Metal Gear Solid series
Death Stranding
Batman Arkham series
🤔

August shaping up to be such a good month for new music for me. New Chance the Rapper is actually good and new Joey Valence & Brae is awesome. Laufey and Sabrina Carpenter later this month too 👀

Have been waiting for this!

Just a reminder I am still looking for full-time work as an Associate Producer! If you know anyone hiring or can connect me with anyone I would appreciate it!
