I've been mostly inactive on social media lately, largely due to the fact that any time I open any of them I take extensive psychic damage from the news & things my eyeballs have to experience

I spoke to Double Fine boss Tim Schafer about getting kicked out of Xbox and rediscovering the thrills of being independent. This week's column is a real good one: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Really excited to finally release FPOM! 🥳 It's a Parallax Occlusion Mapping shader I made with the goal of having an alternative for Nanite Displacement that looks good for a fraction of the cost. Works with Landscape, Mesh Terrain, Meshes, Decals etc. fab.com/listings/f56... #gamedev

Our production company @secrettape.bsky.social has been working on a set of videos uncovering the design & development of Crossfire. Which has a far more fascinating game design challenge than I was anticipating from a third person shooter. Watch Episode One now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=TU8e...

Hey! Unfortunately, with my first job in the games industry, I have been hit with layoffs at That's No Moon. Hit me up if there's any environment art positions open remotely or in LA! I'm gonna go back to personal projects and playing cyberpunk probably 👍

Seeing The Odyssey in IMAX 70mm was pure fucking magic. I am in utter awe of the entire medium of film. What a privilege it is to be alive and be able to experience it that way

Can finally share some of the photos I took in Morocco during one of our scan trips for Crossfire. One of the most stunningly beautiful places I've ever visited, and filled with the kindest, most welcoming people I've ever met.

Please enjoy the trailer for our first game, Crossfire!! It’s surreal to have people be able to see what I’ve been working on for the past three years.

I'm craving a New Good Snowboarding game pretty bad lately. We've kinda hit the clock on a new one, right? Last one I played was Shredders a couple years ago, had a lot of promise but felt a little rough around the edges

Been kind of hitting a motivation wall with personal work when it comes to 3D art, so I've instead pivoted to creating things in visual mediums I've literally never practiced before, without caring about achieving anything at all and just having fun. Turns out having fun is a lot more enjoyable!!!

I know all the grass touching I'm doing is working, because every other day I log on this website and I see a half-dozen cryptic posts saying something to the effect of like 'Not retweeting but this whole discourse is problematic' and I genuinely don't know what the damn fuck you're all referring to

Finished this project a year ago, since then I moved to Paris, now live in a Haussmann building, and every day I take ref pictures that would have been extremely useful to actually apply to this project. 😅

"Dev costs have skyrocketed." What does that actually mean? By how much? Since when? The bigger the scope, the higher the rise: x2.5 for solodevs, x3 for AAA in 10 years ($100M ➡️ $300M). @hushcrasher.bsky.social full analysis: newsletter.hushcrasher.com/p/did-games-...

Did games really get more costly to make?

By how much, since when, and for whom? We have the receipts.

This bit in the From Russia With Love game made me laugh out loud. You've got a fairly grounded, low key fight based on the one in the movie, then the most video game looking fucker of all time slides into frame.

Working on this during my free time to learn Blender. Might not show it for a while, lots to do

A work-in-progress picture of a 3D Environment in Unreal Engine 5 in an early blockout stage. It looks like the artist's own take on an area in the Hollow Bastion level in Kingdom Hearts (2003).

Gandalf really is heroic when you consider that there were originally five wizards and one of them turned evil, two of them fucked off and went out east to have orgies, and one is just super into talking to gophers. The one last hope of free peoples was the stoner and that crazy mfer did it.
