I've spent the morning optimising postmode.org to run better on desktop and mobile. I'm a writer, not a developer, but it's been a fun challenge building the site from scratch. I have to keep it cheap to afford the monthly hosting fees, so it's all DIY, which I'm proud of! postmode.org

I went to the Evangelion 30th Anniversary exhibit today and they let me direct a fight scene using the Virtual Camera Studio tech developed for 3.0 + 1.0. It was soooo cool. Here’s my footage:

Death Stranding 2 is an unforgettable odyssey across Australia and a meticulously polished open-world game. Crucially, better onboarding and combat make for a confident sequel to a divisive game. Here's my review for @postmode.bsky.social postmode.org/death-strand...

Got my first kickback from Postmode’s YouTube channel today too. Incredibly modest & not something I can rely on, but feels more vital than ever. Budgets are in a real bad spot rn. So, LMK if anyone needs a good copy/script/edits guy!

I reviewed Doom: The Dark Ages for @postmode.bsky.social. It's a mixed bag! 'Stand and Fight' ripping and tearing is still reliable fun, but I was expecting more intensity and challenge as the game wore on. Beyond that, there's too much focus on a forgettable narrative. postmode.org/doom-the-dar...
