Do one about the *insert instrument you don't like here* and maybe things will go back to normal 😅

one thing you learn from making a lot of things is that the nitty gritty details, the millions of tiny invisible decisions, ARE the art. The "higher level ideas" are not nearly as important or interesting

"Fuck you tracy" became a catchphrase in our house for this exact reason haha! I left my Netflix logged in in a hotel once and a random woman called Tracy made a profile :D

How did we implement the ambiences for Big Walk? @nicholaszhangaudio.bsky.social manually drew poly lines for all the different biomes and rivers, and built tools to detect shorelines and scatter positions. Most of it is done before the game even runs, and then we just blend between stored values!

Production I can understand but post yeah it's crazy. I came to games after working as a chef and then a TV sound editor so my games crunch experiences have been relatively chill by comparison. These days it's only ever self crunch which is worse in some ways! Hope you recover ok! <3

When I worked in a TV post house for a year the entire audio department was like this, wildly inefficient and doing 25hrs worth of work in 60+ hours a week all because of a culture of extremely poor management mandating overtime constantly. Genuinely baffling to me why anyone thinks it's good!

Imagine being talented and beautiful and rich and famous and still the most noteworthy thing about you is how good a person you are.

When a menu has a neat little tween. Or a character has a funny little animation. Somebody out there spent days making that little detail perfect. And when you’re playing a game you’re blasted with like 50 of these little things per minute. Games are so rich with human life! It’s awesome!!!
