Hi new followers! I’m Rob - been in the games industry since 2002. I’m a game and level designer with a love and passion for environment art which I’m working on during my spare time. Don’t have much to show off currently but here’s my published games from the last 22ish years.❤️👍

I've signed this - it is completely pointless, open to abuse, an unnecessary expense, and probably more importantly another attempt to move us in a more authoritarian direction.

Not that I would probably be asked to go to GDC, but if I was I would politely refuse - I just have no desire to go the US these days... for reasons too numerous to go into but I'm sure you can work it out.

“In Nazi Germany, satirical content was seen as an existential threat to the regime's authority and was systematically censored, controlled, or co-opted for its own propagandistic ends. This suppression was a key component of the Nazi effort to control all forms of communication and public thought.”

This is an utterly fantastic watch and proof that you can change peoples opinions and mindset.
This is exactly what is going on in the UK right now. Labour has for the most part abandoned the working class - they will come back if politicians listen to them and fight on their behalf.

Not content with Level Designing the absolute bollocks off stuff as my day job, I think I might also take part in #blocktober this year…
Love an Uncharted game so might have a go at something to do with that…

Hate to say it but the beserker fights in god of war ragnarok are some of the most unnecessarily hard rage baiting encounters I’ve ever had in a game. The game is otherwise fantastic but these are not fun in the slightest 😩

Yes you’re right, after a long work day I could do some personal art stuff… buuuuut, and hear me out here, I could instead play a few hours of God of War Ragnarok before some much needed shuteye. 🤔

You know what, fly the flag if you want to - but also I'd encourage all different nationalities and heritages here to do the same. Turn our streets into a sea of different flags with all the different colours of the rainbow that indicate how diverse and brilliant this small island can be.

America, what the fuck is going on? If it wasn’t evident before you are now firmly under the thumb of a fascist dictator. Free elections will be next on Trumps hit list. You fuckers need to get in the streets en mass like yesterday.

Started trying to watch Broadchurch on ITVX last night - adverts every 10 minutes. totally pulls the viewer out of the experience. Had to give up - It’s no wonder people sail the high seas.

Trump sending in the National Guard in LA due to ICE protests - what a fucking, and I cannot stress this enough, cunt.
Anyone associated with him, this administration, or carrying out his orders in any way shape or form is the complete opposite of a patriot. All devoid of any humanity.

When set dressing for a smashed up area I like to first place the props as they would have been found initially. I then move them into a place that feels natural and tells a micro story of how it got to where it is now - e.g. was it nudged as people fled, or did it get blasted out the way etc

Bit late to the party but have to say Vampire Survivors is the best “oh go on just one more go before bed” type game I’ve played in a long long time. So fucking adictive.

Once in a while you get a game idea that just has to be worked on - I have 2 of those at the moment, 1 of which would be much easier for to prototype (I think), the other idea I've had on the back burner for a while but this new idea... something about it just sings to me...
