This may or may not make you feel better about … everything? But, just a reminder that in the universe, 275,000,000 (give or take) stars are going to die today.

I worked with a lot of these folks back when I was at Respawn, and I can't praise them enough. If I wasn't super happy where I am now, I'd be jumping on this myself. Go apply to this, tell your friends to apply!

Another tackling perf tip: - Show a big FPS counter on screen ALL the time. - Make it a little annoying to turn off. - Have it turn yellow and then red as the fps drop. Bonus points: smaller text showing gpu and cpu usage etc. to help easily pinpoint where the issue lies.

Really nice work, and sorry to hear about the layoffs (it’s all… just ugh). Anyway, since you were looking, I figured I’d drop this. I can vouch for these being really great people (to both work with and know). Good luck! job-boards.greenhouse.io/gravitywell/...

Oh to have witnessed that. I’ve never really been nostalgic for the good ‘ol days until now. Amazing

Wow. Did not expect. But also, when you’ve stuck gold, why change? Also alas never got the joy of experiencing a true E-ticket, though every time I fly I pull out my phone and pretend that I’m special…

Also reading the ‘approved alternative’ - how much off script were they good with?

That script is just great! Love the queue area stuff (I don’t remember ever hearing that - is that just not modern?)

Gamedev peeps! You should go give Soupy a follow! Fantastic designer from OG Infinity Ward/Respawn; he made Rust in COD MW2 (2009), he made Into the Abyss (the factory level) in Titanfall 2 (among other things), he's done a GDC talk (youtu.be/CkHGuHd9BgU), and he somehow has under 100 followers here

Ha! Wow. Yeah, that seems like a hard rule to reinforce… And oh gosh, I bet the ‘selling the jungle cruise’ was something special. Thanks for the (as always) delightful insight. :D
