My toddler successfully negotiated 3 chocolates for 7 am tomorrow. I wish I was as good as he is at striking deals.

Silently throwing dirty looks at my husband who is playing Classic WoW instead of the raid that I worked on.

Turns out always wearing Kirby shirts will make your child adore the character enough to beg you to play Kirby games while he cheers your own and takes credit for all the victories.

oh, ok. That might be the longest line for a book I've seen. I hope everyone is doing ok.

I don't know who out there needs to hear this. But if you're a #gamedev mom (inc mom-to-be, ttc) and feeling like you have no community and could really use support? DM me, I'm in a wonderfully supportive gamedev mom community and we'd love to have you

*All moms are welcome, including trans moms

I hope there will be a bookmarking solution because it is very frustrating to open reply section just to see a bunch of 📌 instead of people asking questions/elaborating on techniques

Started setting up a starter pack for technical and vfx artists here!

It's not conclusive yet, I'll update it as I go, but it should be a great start to find some awesome artists ✨

Hello world!
I'm Valentina, VFX Artist games, currently on the WoW team. My favourite effects to make are either pink or sparkly or both.
I am also a mom navigating work/life/hobbies with recent ADHD diagnosis.
Excited to connect with other game devs/artists!
