What an absolutely joyless process ordering through Deliveroo is. You spend 30 minutes scrolling and knowing you're being gamed & ripped off and then your food arrives cold (and covered in coriander).

Also: I have people already messaging with AI work. If I wanted that I could do it myself. Please link a portfolio that shows you are human (and that you've done this kind of _design_ work before - the illustration work I've been sent is great but neither of these are illustration projects!)

2) The game is a retro-futuristic vector racing game. You can find it in my timeline if you scroll far enough. Sorry if you do that. I'm looking for someone who can make support materials that embrace the game's aesthetic and wrap it in 1980s print design. Good fonts, good layout - not illustration.

Tempest flyer #1, showing the beautiful lines of the original annotated. I don't want an exact copy of this but you get it, probably.

Tempest flyer #2, this time with the cabinets. Good sloganeering. I actually don't love this flyer but again, you get it. Maybe.

Lots of DMs about this (thank you!) so will answer here: 1) Maraoke has strong logo, icon + elements that we like; we're looking to embrace those + better comms in a template for our regular shows that can be remixed & still stand out. I made this - your work needs to be (much!) better, obv.

Ste Curran (https://mindset.game 🟨🔺🔵) @stecurran.bsky.social · 25/09/2026

I need an artist for graphic design work: 1) For Maraoke: Poster design for now & future. Creating a template that we can rework + reuse, FUN 2) For a game: think future-retro aesthetics, old arcade cabinet flyers, COOL Budget is small but non-zero. DM / stemail at google's popular email service.

There's the feel of classic Twitter on BSky tonight. Everyone mining the seams, trying to find That One Post. All in it together. Reminds me of the day we found out about David Cameron fucking the pig

The problem with a custard cream is that the first bite is GREAT but it is tempered by a sadness that there will only be one more bite. And the second bite is as good as you'd hoped but you cannot enjoy it because your heart is heavy with loss.

I have found the secret Ste Curran-esque reasons for having the RAMIRAMIRAMI link and I hope people use this link so I can hear what absolute madness the Maraoke crew comes up with. Hopefully it's not literally in the vocal range of Sia's Chandelier again I can't hit those

True story. This song made its debut at @nordicgame.com, immediately after SOMEONE spilt a full glass of gin and tonic inside the Maraoke laptop. Rami came up on stage, fixed it* and we restarted with that NEW SONG. It was perfect. (*By turning the laptop upside down and shaking it a bit)
