For as many teams and games as I have worked with, making *the* game day in and day out has come with a whole new level of appreciation for all that entails. Loving the challenges, loving the little gains, and loving the seemingly endless need to adapt, learn, and do to make things happen.

Ah the fun of vowel sounds. I continue to work on ö, ä, och å here.

absolutely. It hits so strong and brings back so many of those good memories with it. Still getting the hang of the battle system.

You inspired me to get over my nostalgic hangup on FF7 and finally start Remake when you talked about getting the feels. Sure enough when that battle music hit I was all in immediately. Thanks 🙏

Super episode. Felt almost like I was in the room, albeit the wrong room since I imagined the old office. Miss all of you. Excellent final take on Ace Combat, Ridge Racer, and Namco having that special touch. Music by @prettypatterns.bsky.social for Kernel Hearts hits! youtu.be/K2fIO-lvF3w?...

As I get ready to start another trip around the sun I am so thankful to be in a time when my journey has taken me to an amazing country in Sweden making an awesome indie game with a fantastic team.

Had an incredible chat with an old friend today. Reminded me the lasting strong friendships we form over the years in the video game industry. Shared passion, strong bonds, great people. We always have each other’s back

These situations are some of the worst. Stealing creative, taking advantage of people. Makes the blood boil. Welp, never know when opportunity might knock

My while I don't have the $300K here is my unsolicited thought is, what would it take to do it in 6mo and how much could it make how fast? That could be the sort of thing an enthusiastic investor might take a flier on

127 indie games for $10 with the proceeds going to a fund supporting unemployed struggling game devs. I mean, if you’ve got ten bucks, get on this.

Today I came across Duran Duran at Austin City Limits 2022. We saw this tour in Stockholm. It defies time how good this is. Transported to the 80s in the best of ways. No idea how. Unreal

Ah shipboard watches. Thought you were talking about the way we tell time. That schedule sounds tough

30 minutes minus 5 minutes until the next hour. What’s not to like?

Game Development can be incredibly rewarding because you can always be learning. I could never have known that I would develop a working understanding for the architecture of a hybrid GameObject - ECS framework in Unity. Yet, here I am. Even cooler is that while not design, it helps to see function

Happy to be back home in Stockholm after a lovely holiday in Sicily. Now a week for home chores and topping up my recharge before getting back to it on our game. Excited

This figures to be a definitive guide that likely all we indie developers can learn from. Incredible contribution to our world.

I thought Stockholm was Aperol spritz crazy. It’s a whole other level here in Sicily. Though, for me, I prefer a Campari spritz. So many variations here, each with a unique twist on a refreshing summer drink.

Garnett Lee @garnettlee.bsky.social · 08/07/2026

Sicily is an absolutely amazing place

“Pretty cars go vroom” might well be written in a design doc somewhere, and it works

Fascinating to see the new changes announced for Arc Raiders and Fortnite Zero Bulld that seem tailored more to the hardcore than general player audience. Very interested to see how this plays out

Today’s unexpected thing I learned about as part of a team making games, wave function collapse algorithm.

Cracks me up seeing these sort of articles. Some odd sort of generational space guarding. Whatever. I’ll still be dancing when they’re headed to make an early beat the rush exit. It ain’t over till the house lights come up

The Capture season 3 finale delivered and then some. The story, dialog, acting, filming, the whole package has been excellent across three seasons. Hope Ben Chanan gets inspired to continue.

Highguard holds many lessons in its launch, shall we say, struggles (32% positive player reviews on +14000 reviews) A big one for producers, a critical function of the role is to be the person in the room who manages the "wouldn't it be cool if" conversations.

One of the many reasons I love Stockholm. Sunday night metal bingo.

Love the looks of this. Sets up a nice rhythm of play between the two play elements. Literal tracks for the run paths. Imaginative atmosphere. I’m in

Ah, my friend I would love to. It has been far too long. Surprise trip from the wife who found crazy cheap flights and room for awkward dates. At least a small getaway from the unemployed routine

One and a half days, so two nights, in Paris. What one place would you have as a must go - to eat, drink, or see?

How evolved is the combat in Halo 24 years after its original launch? This newly announced remake presents an intriguing opportunity to study design progress over that time. Even the 10th anniversary edition feels like a whole other era

If you have been using two or more Apple accounts on your iPhone to switch countries for app availability have your secondary accounts been locked recently? Appears that Apple may be cracking down on one phone number per account 2FA. This would be a real pain.
