I've had my first book feature this summer! - Video Game Design for Dummies.
It's a super introductory book to the world of #gamedesign.
It contains a small snapshot of my career, alongside other talented game designers.
what a fun surprise.

A LONG THREAD‼️

Okay, gather around everyone. Let’s talk strike cards & what WE need to do to prepare for a long term sustained strike.

For some this information might be redundant, but we think it’s important enough to bare repeating, & hopefully this can create a discussion in the comments.

No stream today in support of the National General Strike in solidarity with Minneapolis and others.

If you’re able, today’s a great day to disconnect from the system: stopping/leaving work, not engaging in commerce, staying offline, etc.

Kelly Hayes(@mskellymhayes.bsky.social), speaking tonight, recalls a Minneapolan today telling at federal agents, "you can't kill us all."

"I am grateful to the people of Minneapolis tonight," she says. "Their courage in the wake of this violence is a bright light for us to rally around."

Adding Tokyo Godfather's to my annual Christmas movie list. Forgot how great that film is. Just perfect

Thinking about how mumble rap is basically the junk food of hip-hop.😩
It's fun for a moment, has very little nutritional value, and ultimately is bad for your (mental) health if you intake a lot of it.

But shoutout to the artists getting bread off of it tho. Can't knock the hustle. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Absolutely!
We as creators must continue to fight for a just and equitable future we believe in.
"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future."

- @tressiemcphd.bsky.social with an absolute mic drop moment about AI bullshit.

Incredible words.
Listen to all of it!

Things I cared about at the Game Awards today.

Congrats to the friends who worked on South Of Midnight!

Will definitely be tuning in to this tonight! Happening the day before The Game Awards too? absolutely.
The Avarice Awards holds a mirror to the hollow glamour of The Game Awards, as workers continue to have their livelihoods upended by mass layoffs. We are speaking truth to the powers ruining the game industry with their greed!

Stream begins on December 10th at 7pm PT / 10pm ET on twitch.tv/UVW_CWA
