Ah, I'm just coming to the end of season 2. Enjoy the ride!

#Reboot was a major inspiration as I headed to university to study computer animation, so it is great to see this preservation effort. My VHS tapes are long gone.

Louis Theroux mid interview

A change from my usual game-related events at @bafta.org , previewing the excellent new 'Louis Theroux: Inside the Manosphere' documentary. Brilliant as always, with sometimes a look doing far more than a thousand words.

After today's dataslate changes, I ended up with a 50pt gap. Time to deal with the finecast...

I've been volunteering as a mentor for Limit Break for many years now, and it is always a joy to see when one of my mentees gets into the industry and thrives.

I do hope that more studios can give what they can to this program, because the value it puts back into the industry is immense.

Let the queuing begin. I have coffee.

I will be at the guildford.games festival tomorrow, probably nursing a coffee from the early start to get there. Happy to have a chinwag about tech art and game dev in general. #GameDev #GuildfordGamesFest26

Reading through the Matthew Ball & Epyllion "The State of Video Gaming in 2026"

I'm reminded of a conversation back when I started in the industry, that the vast majority of players only have a handful of titles. 20 years later it is ROBLOX.

Looking forward to the podcast and just more random fun stuff.

The end of an era. Dear Vanguard,  We are heartbroken to say that Volante Design is closing. It's never an easy decision to end something. In fact we have been at this crossroads many times before and have found a way f...

Oh, this sucks. My wife and I both bought coats from @volantedesign.us when we were last over at DragonCon, and they have been fantastic coats to wear.

Asset Validator with Blueprints in Unreal Engine A simple way to automate catching simple bugs before they are even introduced.

Validators are loved by QA and Production.

It's not hard to make them and for simple cases you can make and test a BP Validator in 10 minutes.

If you use the SubmitTool for #UnrealEngine I added an example of how to do dependent validators and a use case for why you might want to do that.

Made a change to UGS to make it clearer that UGS can generate a P4Config file. Unless you had that set you wouldn't even know this was a feature of UGS. Hoping more devs can learn about it this way. Super useful to have for IDEs.

Damnit, understand my ones and twos.

Honestly I must seem like a lost German roadie without a stage, just frustratingly shouting eins, zwei, eins, zwei, into the ether.

The industry is tumultuous. We build on the bleeding edge of technology, embrace new interfaces pursuing innovation. That always carries a risk. A title never finds it's audience, or collapses under the weight of ambition. But we gain knowledge and learn from those failures and strive to try again.

As the year closes out with the uncertainty of what the next year year will bring in my career, taking the time to connect with my peers at BAFTA has remained a constant highlight.

The conversations are always engaging and inciteful, and keep me focused on moving forwards.

This one has tickled my interest since popping up on my radar. The gameplay loops and art style very much my thing. The Gunk via Powerwash Simulator & Blue Prince?

Three Hive Guard models in various stages of construction

Sad to read this. The energy and enthusiasm you brought to BAFTA events will be very much missed. Wishing the best for your next adventure, and hope our paths continue to cross.
