Spent some time rewiring my setup today for the monitor arms I got recently, longer DP & HDMI cables so I can actually use the cable routing on the arms, ordered in some power cord extensions to do the same.

Also, picked up a mic arm- feels way nicer to use than I thought it would :D

Had a blast with the team I was in making PorcuRoll! for the theme ‘Bubble’.

I’ll have to hop on this for games!
For me, in no particular order;

- Quantum Break: Petri Alanko

- Ocarina of Time: Koji Kondo

- Gran Turismo 3: Masahiro Andoh, Daiki Kasho & Isamu Ohira

(And interestingly with GT3 I’m more talking about the music of the menu screens than the in-game music.)
Hey BlueSky folks… what are your top three favorite scores for film, TV, or games?

I’ll start! These are the three I’m feeling tonight…

- Conan the Barbarian by Basil Poledouris
- Star Trek The Motion Picture by Jerry Goldsmith
- Close Encounters of the Third Kind by John Williams

Back on Godot and slowly trying to figure out the equivalent of a Unity spring joint. No matter. I only look forward to being able to bring back my absolute favourite free-temp-art-stand-in-model, the best boi, Banjofrog :D

Hi @gameengines.bsky.social! Mind if I get the Godot, Unity and Unreal labels?

I have a joke about game development, but we failed to meet our Kickstarter goal so the joke has been cancelled and our backers refunded. We promise to come up with a new joke soon, funded by several simultaneously released quips about game development.
I have a joke about game development, but we're committed to making the best joke possible for our followers. To achieve this, we're delaying the joke until early 2025.
I have a joke about game development, but since the reorg it’s no longer strategically aligned with our vision. It was a hard choice, but the joke’s position had to be eliminated.
