I realized I’ve had my focus on the wrong things lately, & I’m grateful for God’s mercy & His ability to realign me. I’m thankful that I don’t have to carry tomorrow. He’s already gone ahead of me. Today is enough, and tomorrow will take care of itself. Thank You, Lord. 🙏🏾

No point in trying to convince anyone to stay in your life who doesn’t wanna be there.. What’s funny is some folks just stick around cause they wanna see your story and how it plays out, but guess what I don’t have time for all that 😂 enjoy the show.. just don’t get in my way.

Hello #GDC25 friends! There’s a lot of folks around and at least some of y’all are diseased, so if anyone needs spare masks, tests, lozenges, ibuprofen, vitamin C or stickers, hit me up! Stay safe and healthy this week! ✨

A pile of Covid tests, masks, ibuprofen, lozenges, emergency-C, and salonpas. There is also a pile of stickers that say Game Workers Unite

Finally learned how to use #UnrealEngine ‘s biome features on a custom landscape 😮‍💨. And that: - multilayering saves time by making randomness controllable - it’s super easy to switch out assets to prototype visuals - much more performant than expected Some unoptimized in-game footage:

The Games Industry, a 2024 year in review 😊

Four images of a life size Hello Kitty in an office having a difficult time with work life. In the top left image, Hello Kitty is pointing a gun at a computer screen while wearing blue headphones. The top right corner shows Hello Kitty swinging a mallet in an office and breaking furniture. The bottom left image has Hello Kitty waving a shovel threateningly. Finally, the bottom right image is Hello Kitty pouring a liquid onto a computer. It is not clear if it is water or gasoline.

The year is almost over and I haven’t felt this ready to shift into something new in a while… sometimes people’s hearts need to be exposed for us to cut ties and do a new thing! #imready
