I’ll likely delete this account soon. I’m around on Bluesky a bit and very rarely on Mastodon. I still barely post, but come find me there if you want to connect again. Same username.
@laryssaokada Someday I want to share more thoughts than "Thanks for making awesome tunes!" but that's all I got for now.
Our critically acclaimed puzzle game Bonfire Peaks is now bigger than ever with a 🔥brand new DLC🔥 Out now, Part 1 of this DLC adds almost 50 dynamic new puzzles, new mechanics and many more belongings to burn. Please RT! Store links below ⇩
Glad to be able to work on this last year with Corey and Draknek. I can’t stress enough how clever the puzzles are and how satisfying it is to solve them. The DLC is familiar and yet challenging in new and creative ways and there’s more coming. Go get it!
🏝️ Bonfire Peaks: Lost Memories 🏝️ A trilogy of DLC - Part 1 is OUT NOW on PS4, PS5, Switch & PC! w/ @Draknek, @SyrenneMcN, @knosvoxel, @BuzzJive Some words about what this is and why it exists 👇
If you never played Bonfire Peaks, you really should. It's a stylish clever puzzle game that constantly creates satisfying "ah-ha" moments. If you DID play it, you should grab the DLC for even more of those moments. Grateful to work with Corey again to help on the PSX releases.
🏝️ Bonfire Peaks: Lost Memories 🏝️ is out March 2, 2023 on PS4/PS5, Switch & PC! w/ @Draknek, @SyrenneMcN , @knosvoxel, @BuzzJive Here's a lil sneak peak! 🫣
We're working on a new project as a follow-up to Manifold Garden. We are hiring for a number of positions, all of them remote: • Programmer • Graphics Programmer • Environment Artist • Graphic Designer • Illustrator More info here:workwithindies.com/work-with/will… #gamedev
Didn't I just tweet yesterday? Two days in a row?!? Is twitter broken? Not yet. But while we're all branching out, you can follow my game dev musings here: mastodon.gamedev.place/@buzzjive I like the hyperfocus on game dev there so far. I'm still watching the train wreck here though.
Exciting news! I've taken a full time position as Technical Director at William Chyr Studio. We're currently looking for a Producer and QA Tester to join as well. Reach out if that's you.
We're hiring for a VR project! ⭐️Producer (USA, Remote): workwithindies.com/careers/willia… ⭐️QA Tester (Chicago, Hybrid): workwithindies.com/careers/willia… ✅Full-time ✅100% Employer-covered Health Insurance ✅401(k) match ✅Flexible hours ✅Paid family leave options ✅Stipend for home office
@misterbigpants @dayofthedevs @DoubleFine @iam8bit Congrats! I've been to a couple Day of the Devs events and it's great fun. Very cool!!
@laryssaokada @HOOKcrew @atomx @FA1KFA1KFA1K Great stuff! My one complaint ... it was over before I wanted it to end. I listened twice in a row!

Never seen them and the lighting show looks interesting. Seems worth a drive down to Brooklyn. Four Tet + Squidsoup: Register for Presale Tickets & Win 4 GA Passes & Signed Vinyl: arep.co/pYdBh
@SyrenneMcN Hope your day was as amazing as you deserve! Congrats!
@sievish @Naughty_Dog Awesome. I knew you’d find a good place - but this is even better than I’d thought! Very happy for you.
@garretpolk Technically I think it's also okay if you've been on somebody else's podcast at some point.
Manifold Garden is now 50% off on @Steam as part of the Midweek Madness sale! We also released an update today that lets you use Steam Deck's gyroscope in photo mode. store.steampowered.com/app/473950/Man…
Game Devs - Any books you recommend for those new to the industry? I feel tech books become outdated - though biz, design, and art are constantly evolving too. After 17y in games I should have resources I would point to, but I don't. I'd love recent stuff, but old faves good too.
@willgoldstone @andytouch I appreciate your humble response. It FEELS like Unity said "there's nothing more we can learn from finishing Gigaya" and many Unity employees are nodding in agreement. Lots of us out here finishing and shipping games disagree.
I feel like they could raise the price and bundle in some games or store credit (Beat Saber is included for the next 4 months) - but a $100 increase when money is so tight does not seem like "moving the VR industry forward".
In order to continue investing in moving the VR industry forward for the long term, we are adjusting the price of Meta Quest 2 headsets to $399.99 (128GB) and $499.99 (256GB) starting on 8/1/22.
@willgoldstone @andytouch From fanfare announcement to cancellation in 4 months without achieving the stated goals. It’s frustrating to see many at Unity brush this off with “we work with external studios”. It’s not the same thing. You’re still not listening.
