Had some really cool things I got to work on since the end of May up to now, but my contracts are wrapping up this week, which means I'm jobless again! I'd love a full time W-2 job with benefits, but I think those don't exist? Anyway, my portfolio is here: jjsignal.com

I wrote a long article about Rieko Kodama, her career at Sega, the evolution of her company, the games she worked on (including some canceled games and/or games for which she is not credited), the status of women and working conditions in the video game industry, etc.

Illustration: a portrait of Rieko Kodama with some of the games she has worked on. The dominant colors are yellow, purple and red. Counterclockwise from top left: Rieko Kodama, Alis and Lutz from Phantasy Star, Sonic in a maze, Alex Kidd and his motorbike next to Flicky on a waterfront pier, Joe Musashi and his dog near the Statue of Liberty facing a skyline, the three playable characters from Golden Axe seen from behind on the edge of a cliff, and one of the flying ships from Skies of Arcadia.

Outside of some post release help for NEURODIVER, I've since left MidBoss. I've worked at a liquor store for a bit last year after 4 months of job searching, and then did some cool contract work with White Owls from spring to now. Looking for work again! Hopefully full time.

Happy 10th anniversary, Read Only Memories. I haven't made an anniversary illustration yet to celebrate, but it's crazy that it's already been 10 years since the original release. I have a lot of complex feelings, but I'm still proud of it. #ReadOnlyMemories #2064ROM

Silent Hill f rules so hard. I've been really enjoying drinking up all of its atmosphere.

Choice paralysis. I kind of just want to zone out finally and do nothing for a bit, but also I want to draw something, but also I want to work on experimenting with Hypercard stuff again, but also after doing some 3D work on my last contract job, I kinda want to do more of that.

Because it was popping up for me so often, I made Messiah of Evil my first horror movie of October. Incredible. Gorgeous movie. Stunningly framed.
