I am neither engaged, nor monetized. This lounge could change everything!
Happy to provide a service. Pretty much every booth on the show floor is shilling AI, if that helps you get a sense of the vibes
It's like The Mask but instead of wacky cartoon violence you just start correcting everyone
I didn't hang around long enough to find out, lest I be engaged with.

I entered the swing arena a cynic, but I quickly gave in to the whimsy.
The swing set was there to draw you into their booth - where they were demoing AI videogames, of course!

Okay I'm actually gonna be at GDC. If any mutuals are going please let me know.
As IGF finalists we will mainly be there for the IGF Pavilion and the awards Ceremony but we'd also like to hang out / talk business and / or attend cool parties so please invite me thank you.

🎉 WE HIT 1,000 STEAM REVIEWS! 🎉
Thank you to everyone who has played Loco Motive, left a review, and supported us so far!
We're about to hit 1000 reviews on Steam for Loco Motive! If you haven't left a review for the game yet, you have the very real opportunity to be a hero and get us over the line. 😆
i like video games and think there should be a sustainable industry for me and my very cool and talented friends to keep making them :)
This person was the head of AI slop at Microsoft all of thirty minutes ago so I find this hard to believe, personally.
My contract with Rovio has come to an end a little shorter than anticipated, it's been an absolutely thrilling time working on Sonic Rumble for the past 1.5 years 💙
Am available for brand, creative, marketing and leadership roles
Nov-Jan have been Loco Motive's best consecutive sales months since launch. Long tail sales are never guaranteed, so this has been great to see in action.
We're also just 9 Steam reviews away from 1K - A huge milestone nearly reached! If you haven't left a review yet, you can really make it count!
After 9+ years at ustwo games I have unfortunately been made redundant.
If you are looking for a stylised 3D generalist with 10+ years experience to have on your team please give me a shout or let others know that I am available for work! I'd love to chat ✨
