Last week was my last week at Iron Gate - After three years working on Valheim, it's time to start looking for new adventures elsewhere. If you know someone looking for a kickass Tech Artist/Programmer, hit me up. Happy to work either remote, or on-site in Stockholm. Portfolio's at dahnberg.se

🔮Finished up this 'Crystal Ball' shader project yesterday. ✨ What started off as a quick weekend project quickly expanded (as usual), but I'm very happy with it! More vids are on my art station here: www.artstation.com/artwork/kN3GPK 😊

Shouting about time drop workouts as they've made working out soooo much easier for me!!! I always struggled with the next set (can I do this again?!?!?), but knowing the time has dropped makes it so much easier. ✨

When I had a violent stalker who would graphically describe how he would have me gang raped, puncture my organs and and break all my bones, I was told the police "couldn't do anything". Consider this a reminder that they absolutely ✨can✨ do something. They just don't care about YOU.
A screenshot of a social media post that states a Florida woman was arrested this week after allegedly threatening a health insurance provider. Lakeland Police said the woman became increasingly upset during the call which she ended with delay denied depose you people are next.

2024 currently has more known games industry layoffs than 2023+2022 combined. 2024 is roughly 600 layoffs away from doubling 2023. There is still plenty of business days left in the month. I can't emphasize enough how extreme these last few years have been. So far.

As Palestinian history and culture is being buried art becomes more important to preservation efforts. Rasheed felt this was important, which is why I think his game about the 1948 Nakba is so interesting. Please consider supporting the crowdfunding effort for Dreams on a Pillow.

How do I stop that panicked feeling whenever I look read tech art forums or look at people's project breakdowns that screams 'You don't know what you're doing, you don't understand any of this, this is too hard for you, there's too much more to learn'?? Asking for a friend. 🥲
