Remain radicalized.
Remember why.
Protect your communities but never take advantage of them.
Respect those who take the time to respect you.
Respect others and yourself.
Give yourself grace to make mistakes.
Build your mind.
Protect your heart.
Do no harm but take no shit.
Love one another.
Be well.

"The Replicant", a promotional short film by french duo Milli (& Wizz studio) for Louis-Gabriel Nouchi clothing collection (LGN Spring/Summer '26).
Slightly inspired by Blade Runner ;-] (and it's really hot in France today).

If your game is worth making, it's worth promoting.

Option A: expend time and energy explaining myself to someone that has neither good intentions nor the an interest in understanding.

Option B: โ€œI love that for youโ€ and going on with my day.

Honestly it was mainly an issue of familiarity. I have years of Unity experience and I was trying to learn unreal. Between my family and work learning a new engine was a bit too much.

Iโ€™m building a hero based combat platformer. The original intention was to use it as a project to learn Unreal, that became a bit much so Iโ€™m going back to Unity.
