Happy 23rd anniversary yo GORE which is another game I worked with @jonjones.bsky.social on. #gamedev

Why did they kill me in Project Warlock 2? Haven't I been through enough?! :D #GRAVEN

Hey, it's the 18th anniversary of the Dungeon Runners release. I worked with @jonjones.bsky.social on this one and made a few dozen weapons.

Happy 13th anniversary to Nexuiz. Had a blast working on this and got to travel a ton for it.

Played it. Short and sweet. Great job!

I still have that disc!

Happy one year anniversary to GRAVEN! Wish it met a better fate, but still nice it got some recent love.

GTA3 has a ton of fun codes. I used to run a "Zombie Apocalypse" set starting by inputting "Destroy All Cars" code (which explodes every vehicle), "Angry Pedestrians" and maybe "Rioting Pedestrians". It's pure chaos and a lot of fun. include "Armed Pedestrians" to greatly reduce survival.

Meat Mania Horror Jam WIP #gamedev
I've chose chaos and meat cleavers!

Meat Mania Horror Jam #gamedev
Blocking out the basics; movement, attack, enemy spawning and hud. Planning visual inspiration Blaster Master and Contra (NES), meaty and biomechanical but we'll see what I end up with.

The Meat Mania Horror Jam this week looks fun, and I have an idea. @horrorvisuals.com @cr-games.bsky.social #gamedev

It's my one year anniversary at @apogeeent.com . Lots of cool projects here and more coming DOWN the pipe. #gamedev

While I love the colors and lighting of Still Wakes the Deep, the "Silver Screen" update feels like an old film sometimes. The Lighthouse vibes. @thechineseroom.co.uk

Am I still in the credits for that one building I did the first version high detail mesh for? It's only one thing, but I like to pad my resume when possible. /s :D

Today is 26th anniversary of Quake 2: Extremities (signed by the id devs at the time). Zaero was also released in November, but I don't know the release date. My first two game boxes in stores. #quake #gamedev

I trained as a pro wrestler in 2007. It was a blast, and I got to learn from top talent.
In 2016 I had my last match on late notice to replace a friend.
We destroyed our foes in front of 1400 people.

To capture authentic river meandering for the GRAVEN boat ride intro I referenced maps of the Amazon river.
The trees are from Wakulla Springs, Florida where they filmed Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954)

Last week was the 21st anniversary of Goblin Commander. I moved to Boulder, Colorado to work on this in 2002. I had made some PC games and my next career goal was console games. Released on Game Cube, Xbox and PS2 knocked that goal out of the park! #gamedev

Planning on posting a tutorial / tips series maybe in December. It'll be a variety of #gamedev stuff learned over the past years from #leveldesign, #UE5 materials and blueprints. Stay tuned!
