A few thoughts on the 2026 triptych of game-literate movies: Resident Evil, Backrooms, and Exit 8. It seems to me that a new cohort of filmmakers raised on video games has finally figured out what elements of the interactive medium work on the big screen. 🎁link: giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/...

How gaming is changing the movies

Directors raised on video games have finally cracked how to translate them to the big screen — by focusing on their logic rather than their stories

I made animations for a Vice Documentary about Gooners. It’s also a good opportunity to talk about my process a bit. Please do not make me regret the JO part of this.

Jolene is, without hyperbole, one of the greatest songs ever written. Also so rare for a country artist to stay Cool all the way to the end. Truly lost a real one.

Since the spring of 2023, I have been creating a non-violent art museum in Doom. My goal was to find art that engaged with the themes that informed Doom's creation, while also exploring the possibilities of virtual museum spaces. Please enjoy this museum. Download link below

I submitted a game to SMILE JAM in the final minute. It's an aesthetic experiment in exploring ASCII art in RPG Maker, and unfortunately I ran out of time to add much in the way of narrative or mechanics, but I want to revisit this in the future. chariot-rider.itch.io/ascii-dungeon

Forgive me for engaging in Mixtape discourse but it’s not just a problem in games that critics are afraid of being negative. This happens in the art world, it happens in cinema, even music to some extent. When art is precarious it’s scary to burn bridges, but it ultimately stagnates mediums.

Trying to go beyond the #PSX style look by using a post processing effect which desaturated and pixelates shadows only, creating a mixed resolution with off color combos #gamedev #UE5

This would be way more interesting if you gave a class of 8 year olds access to the same AI tools and tasked them with each generating a scene for the film based on their ideas of the American Revolution rather than having Darren Aranofsky being paid to be lazy.

copying BOTW 1:1 isn't interesting. Show me a game where each action you take, regardless of what it is, fundamentally alters the design of the world. Show me a game that leans into endless digital material colliding. Show me a game that turns on my webcam, takes a photo, and it becomes a map.
