As a UI/UX Designer, Game UI Database is a unique and valuable resource that has helped me and many, many other game devs. I've said it before, and I'll say it again: it's disgusting that all the hard work Edd puts into it is treated as fuel for the garbage machines.

There's always someone out there. It's important to stand with survivors in our industry, because everything else is already too fucked up for them to feel safe anymore.

While we've been hard at work on Project Lexa, we've also been trying to answer a very important question: what's the final name of this game going to be? Well, now we have an answer — Project Lexa is now just Lexa! ward-games.com/post/project...

Project Lexa is Now Lexa!

We're excited to announce the new name of Project Lexa!

It’s HHM! As the industry falters, I’m lucky to have a role in games. As a Latino, even more fortunate as simply put, not many of us exist in games. If you’re reading this, I’m asking you to be an ally. Whether at an event or in a boardroom, please support and speak up for your Latino colleagues 🫶🏼

IGN Creators Guild @ignunion.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

We are tired of posting statements like these.

Today was an awful day at IGN. We were blindsided by the layoff of four union members and many more people across the organization who contributed years of their careers to making IGN an unparalleled voice in games and entertainment.

With each successive layoff, core parts of IGN’s operation continue to be stripped away. Today, IGN has decided to do away with many of our talented producers, editors, hosts, and other crucial roles, both within and out of the union. How many layoffs will occur before we no longer recognize the company we work for and the content that we make?

While we recognize the challenges the media industry is facing as a whole, it is difficult to understand how laying off valuable employees better positions us to meet those challenges. In turn, remaining employees bear additional workloads worsened by anxiety over the ever-looming threat of another layoff.

We are devastated, angry, and heartbroken for our colleagues.

Hi #portfolioday I'm Jo, a UI/UX Designer working in video games with 17 years of experience. I love fantasy, sci-fi and everything in between. I'm currently freelancing on some exciting indie projects while on the lookout for my next full time gig. ✨ #gamedev

A screenshot from The Land Forgotten, an upcoming 2D puzzle game with a watercolor art style. Several stone tiles are shown on the left hand side with various symbols on them. On the right side are a list of notes and hints written on paper.

A screenshot from Sol Mates by Daruma Games, showing a top down view of a space ship interior with weapons stations and shields. Enemy ships surround the player ship, each with their own health bars and attack timers. A HUD shows the player ship's health and shields, as well as a mission progression timeline and credits earned.

A mockup from a cancelled game developed at Cryptic Studios, a stylized fantastical ARPG and Soulslike. The Inventory UI is shown, with the player viewing details for their equipped weapon.

An overview of the UI for the updated launcher that I designed for Star Trek Online at Cryptic Studios. An events carousel, news overview, shard selection, patch download progress, and the main "Play" button are shown on the left, while the options menu with various settings is shown on the right.
