Graphic Design Contest. $500 prize!
The Brooklyn Seltzer Museum needs a graphic to represent the upcoming National Egg Cream Invitational.
We can't afford to pay all submitters, so we're ONLY asking for rough concepts / mock-ups NOT expecting to get any fully fleshed out usable designs for free.

It was a great time working with such passionate and talented individuals on this team and i'm wishing everybody a whole lot of luck and perseverance with job hunting in these hard times

Even if im no longer a part of the company i hope that folks still play Possessor(s) because we, the devs, put a lot of hard work and love into it. We want to see it be enjoyed by folks~

My time at Heart Machine has sadly come to a rather abrupt end. I was there for almost 6 years, & had been working on Breaker since summer 2020. It was a pleasure working with them!
Now, a new chapter begins.

There's no more valuable hire than Myriame. Seriously
My heart is heavy & I might have more to say on that later, but I've got news today that my time at Heart Machine will come to an end after POSSESSOR(S) ships.
I'm honestly too busy... literally shipping the game to start actively looking for work, but I'll be looking for my next gig in December. 🥲

100%. The @videogameworkers.bsky.social Freelancing Committee has union insurance ranked as our #1 priority. The process of securing affordable insurance for all union members will admittedly be a long road, but it’s one we MUST take. So often health insurance is the “carrot on a stick.”
I'd love to see game dev unions focus on advocacy for policy changes so groups like @gumbonyc.bsky.social can purchase group health insurance for members. A lot of game devs are freelancers / contract workers, esp. these days where w2 jobs are scarce. For some, it's literally life and death.
