For my limit break mentees, I made a presentation and homework to use in-game photography into a task. I didn't want to go too complicated and overwhelm them, so I made mockups for a new feature for Spirit City to give them an example. www.behance.net/gallery/2543... #gameui #uiart #figma

Windows 9k5 An exercise in creating a futuristc OS design with windows 95 color palette restriction #UI #FUI #y2k

Windows 9k5 - a desktop of a fake Y2K looking OS, based on Windows 95 color palette. The opened notepad window says:

"microsoft lays off 9000 workers
9000 lives thrown into turmoil

families having to scramble while phil is still getting his bonus and satya is getting even more

the spreadsheets show that all this brings value to the shareholders, the investors, the important people

and spreadsheets never lie, do they?"

Pleasantly surprised to learn that this video is actually about cool game UI (among a dozen other topics, it's a chaotic watch) The most important point here is that the primary reason we're getting less varied and experimental interfaces in games is... the economy youtu.be/Zc3D-5ZyQpI

Some UI I've been loving since it came out in recent memory is @duneawakening.bsky.social's survival game. Adore this sandworm threat bar: such a great idea and really does create a sense of fear when you're just about to get eaten! #uidesign #ux #dune #duneawakening #gamedesign

I put int a lot of effort into the alt text so that even the shit memes I saved into my phone is accessible to you all you’re welcome

Screen shot of Yuna from Final Fantasy X-2 holding up a gun, captioned “We need to kill them with kindness, but instead of kindness we’re going to use guns.”

Old Greek illustration of Sisyphus pushing up a boulder with the words “the fucking dishes and the fucking laundry” added on to the boulder

A picture of a billboard of the the words “YOU MATTER” in a left column and “DONT GIVE UP” in the right column but when read left to right line by line it says “YOU DONT” above and “MATTER GIVE UP” at the bottom. Caption says “why did I read this wrong”

Screenshot of a tweet where the caption says “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of…” followed by an image of a photographed food menu item titled “Ass. Kebab”
