Hahahaha I'm sorry!! But yeah if I start feeling like I do't want to write I just make myself do it anyway... the trick is having the unearned confidence that at least some of your stuff will be interesting to someone even if you write it while cringing and crying hahaha

I wrote for Young Suns! Today, KO-OP announced their next game, Young Suns, which is out on the Xbox Game Pass "Game Preview" program right now. I did contract writing for this game...

Wrote briefly about my work on Young Suns on my blog (where I have posted every day for over a year) blog.lauramichet.com/i-wrote-for-...

Possessors has released! I've spent the last two years working on <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/2132890/Possessors/">Possessors,</a> the new metroidvania from Heart Mac...

Just realizing I COMPLETELY forgot to post about this on Bluesky - Possessors came out this Tuesday, and I wrote for the game! It's been great to see people speaking positively about our story. I wrote about it here: blog.lauramichet.com/possessors-h...

The layoffs have come for me and time at Heart Machine will be wrapping up at the end of the month.

If you're looking for a Technical Artist with experience in Houdini, Unreal, Unity, Python, VEX and C++, lets chat. 🫑

My time at Heart Machine has sadly come to a rather abrupt end. I was there for almost 6 years, & had been working on Breaker since summer 2020. It was a pleasure working with them!

Now, a new chapter begins.

The Terrible Layoff Beast has come for me and I no longer work for Heart Machine. It was a good team, I'm sad I won't get to work with them anymore.

If you're looking for a game designer, I'm available for full time gigs and consulting. I'm pretty OK at it.

I'll have more info to share in a bit.

Worked closely with Frank on Ruined King and he is an extremely fun, reliable, selfless coworker. You'd do great to snag him!!!

I've reposted many posts made by folks who were recently laid off from Heart Machine, but here is a thread that highlights them all.

I am also including folks who were previously laid off & are still looking for work. I will be linking their Bsky posts, as well as LinkedIn.

Please, share this. πŸ–€

Hi friends. Unfortunately, my time at Heart Machine is coming to an end. I’m seeking a new role and would appreciate your support. Saying goodbye to such a talented team is difficult, but I am excited for the next adventure. <3

I'll have more info soon.

Thanks everyone. Stay strong out there.
