AI generated content in games just ruins the fun of making games. Do you know how many people love to make generic items like crates and boxes? Tons! Ask any asset creator and they will tell you all about the tiny little details they lovingly create for those assets. Don't take jobs away from them!

If you love locally made TTRPGs from Canada and science fiction go check out Traverse! They just recently dropped their Itch page and it looks amazing. verisaria-studios.itch.io/traverse

Alberta’s game industry is about building a future where local creators can thrive. Events like GDX aren’t just showcases, they’re infrastructure that connects real talent with real opportunities. We’re here to build lasting impact, not chase quick wins.

After almost 14 years at BioWare, I am devastated to learn today that myself and others must seek new opportunities. I am so grateful for all of the learning, challenges, and most importantly the team. I will remember my time here with joy. Tomorrow we'll move forward. For today I will just be sad.

So, my time at BioWare has ended. It was a wild ride with some fantastic people, but it’s time to look for new challenges. I’m an Editor / Writer with 26+ years of experience across video games, novels, short stories, newspapers, and marketing comms. If you know of a good fit, please let me know.

Here's the little game I helped make last weekend at the Global Game Jam. I made many of the sfx, in case you're curious, and the amazing Catherine Bevan did the programming.

If you are interested in a YEG local TTRPG check out Traverse. It is quite the rich and complex scifi game. If you like crunchy numbers and lots of character customization give it a spin. Sign up for the closed Beta and give the developers some feedback. www.traverserpg.com

Trump's "Restoring Sanity" Agenda is dangerous. Just cause we're in Canada doesn't mean it won't deeply effect us here. Gender Identity freedom and diversity, equity, and inclusion programs are essential for everyone to feel safer and respected. Fight hard for them.
