Last week, I finished a class at the Irish Writers Centre called “Writing for Video Games”. I got a lot of out it and I’m sorta sad I won’t have another class this week! (Thank you @alphachar.bsky.social for being a great teacher!)

Another game jam completed! This time its a retro Tempest-like shooter. If you can make it far enough, there are some unique innovations, such as a bowling level and a butt level. padraigk.itch.io/armageddon

Here's an easter egg in the new Lego Batman that I think all of you will REALLY appreciate. It's so good, I had to make a video.

I wish I knew this in my younger years. I regret chasing specificity and perfection over self-discovery. Inconsistency when you're learning is not something to fear or to be ashamed of. It's your inner voice trying to get out. Listen to it and nurture it instead of fighting it.

Today, we celebrate the achievements of transgender, Two-Spirit and non-binary people. Today is also a reminder that not everyone is free to live their lives safely. Many still face hate and discrimination, and struggle to access the life-saving health care and supports. (1/3)

I worked on this for my Colour Theory class at Emily Carr. Pretty happy with how it came out. Maybe these characters will make it into my next #gamejam #art

I hate when I press "1" in #Blender to go to Vertex select mode, but I'm not in Edit mode, so it hides a collection instead. Do you hate the too? I made this to fix it: github.com/PadraigK/Edi...

in slightly-early honour of St Patricks Day, I will once again remind the world of the time Amazon united Ireland (and apologized for the Troubles), still one of my favourite moments on twitter

A Twitter thread. Amazon Help replies to a (not visible) tweet saying "Autumn Nations Cup coverage is available to Prime Video customers
based in UK only. Prime Video doesn't support streaming content through Virtual Private Network (VPN) or proxy
connections. Are you using either of these?"

Chris Jones says "No."

Amazon Help says "Thank you for that information. We
apologize but upon reviewing your
location you're in Northern Ireland.
Rugby Autumn Nations Cup coverage is
exclusively available to Prime members
based in the UK. We don't have the rights
to other territories."

The thread continues. Chris Jones says "Northern Ireland is part of the UK."

Amazon Help says "Many apologies, but we don't have the broadcast rights for Ireland or other territories." Another twitter user says "Northern Ireland *IS* the UK, "UK" is
short for The United Kingdom of Great
Britain and Northern Ireland.
(This tweet does not reflect my opinions
on the matter of a united island of
Ireland)"

Amazon Help replies "Thank you for reaching out to us. We'll be sure to pass your feedback along to the appropriate team."

Amazon Help replies to a different tweet, and leads with "Hi there! We apologize for the troubles."

I'm considering applying for #blender's google summer of code this year — anyone out there have ideas of small-medium things you'd like to see implemented in Blender? (tagging #godotengine #godot because I'm interested in the games pipeline too.)

Maybe the moral of the boy who cried wolf isn't the individual "don't lie or no one will believe you when it matters", maybe it's something more collective like "societies that tolerate liars will get everyone killed"

bsky.app/profile/migu... Absolute same. I can't believe how much of my time used to be burned up at Apple each week. By the end I was writing off 2-3 out of 5 days to just meetings and useless ~30 min gaps between. Same for everyone on the team.
