I love it when Roboto shows up in expensive AAA game trailer shows

This art features 100 bees of various colors and shapes. These bees are designed in a cartoonish style, based on real species. The common name or species is written below the animals. Some bees are moving leaves, scraping plant hair, or sticking out their tongues. Some male bees have hairy faces and unusually shaped legs. There are also baby bees that have just hatched from their petal nests. Cute and colorful atmosphere. There are over 20,000 species of bees, so I only depicted a very small fraction of them!

The "Always Has Been" astronaut meme template with no text.

Preproduction isn't over until the game ships.

Basically my same reaction 😅 I took a month off and came back to a whole new game

If you’re not yelling 🎬💥 CUT!! WHO LET THIS GUY ON SET?? Eyyy why you lookin at me like that WHATSTHEMATTA WITHYOUUU 📣‼️ while capturing trailer footage then you are not a true Game Director

Presentation slide: "Tana is (slowing learning to be) a Studio Director"

It's been 6 months since I struck out on my own to be come a studio director and it's about time I did a talk about it! 🫖

This was an awesome event - we had way more people than computers so we will definitely try run something like this again!

Thanks so much to everyone that turned up ⭐️🟡🟧

I should update this image to say ""films"" but that's more effort than ol' Daro is worth (and more than he's willing to put into his own damn work, lmao)

I love working in games bc I learn something new every day 😊

fall back into place

My birthday wish is for YOU to wishlist Night Plane (and maybe the captain will announce it over the intercom to everyone 🎙️🧑‍✈️🤩)

so true bestie

I’ve just been told you can actually do this now?? And I didn’t know because I’m still using my iPhone 8 🫠 when she explodes is it gonna feel like teleporting into the future? What else am I totally unwary of that you all take for granted? And how many years behind the curve is my UX instinct?

The new Katamari game is SO GOOD 😭💗 you can CUSTOMISE the cousins COLOURS. There’s an ONLINE MULTIPLAYER MODE. We were WAVING AT EACH OTHER IN THE LOBBY and then I got ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED (but not before rolling one of my opponents up) 🌈🪅✨

$960,000 boost for game developers in CODE’s third national funding round 13 studios from across Aotearoa received prototype and production funding in the third NZ CODE national funding round.

It's already an exciting week in the regional game industry but we couldn't resist making it more exciting. 🥝🕹️🎮

Congrats!!! 👏🎉

Slightly embarrassed to admit that I am well and truly in the throes of a “novelty supermarket products” phase. Funny flavours abound and I am acting under the influence of no one but myself (and a ton of work stress). Turns out who I am when I am not my best self is a Grape Powerade fan

Two drawings and two small photos of the cat, Pyaari. The drawing on the left is wearing a blue dupatta. The drawing on the right is in a gold sari with a dupatta on the head.

Pyaari is so decent 🥺

Kiwis 'can be proud' NZ isn't recognising Palestine yet - PM Christopher Luxon New Zealand was among only a handful of countries - including the US, Japan and South Korea - which had not formally recognised Palestinian statehood.

I'm ashamed to be a New Zealander today, it's embarrassing to be on the wrong side of history :( https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/world/574427/kiwis-can-be-proud-nz-isn-t-recognising-palestine-yet-pm-christopher-luxon #nzpol

The best time to post this was about 96 hours ago. The second best time is… now? (Probably not, but I’m too late to change that as well lmao)

For real tho - HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who came by and said hi and played the game and listened to my dumb joke about my NORMAL SIZED HAT 🧑‍✈️🫶

i wish i could throw my body in the washing machine

Obvi it’s a big F.U. to sp*tify since aaaages ago, but sometimes I’m reminded just how dogshit their app/UX/general usability is. Like - wdym you CAN’T send a song to a friend directly in-app? I have to go into a menu, then a submenu, copy a link, open a COMPLETELY SEPARATE APP and send it there????

Best thing I did today was eat a really good sandwich for lunch. Second best thing was recording this blood curdling scream for Night Plane

Image one description: Picture of the following text: “NO FBI COPS. NO USA TROOPS. Stand against militarism and authoritarianism. Join the march against the increased presence of the USA military and law enforcement in Aotearoa. Date and time: 1pm, Saturday the 6th of September. Location: MIDLAND PARK. MARCHING TO USA EMBASSY.”

Image two description: Picture of the following text: “The FBI in Aotearoa? The Trump-appointed Director of the USA Federal Bureau of Investigation recently visited Aotearoa, welcomed by New Zealand’s far-right government, with plans to establish an FBI office here.”

Image three description: Picture of the following text: “USA TROOPS ON KIWI SOIL At the same time, the New Zealand Army is talking with its United States counterparts about having American troops train regularly in Aotearoa. This disturbing news means strengthening of authoritarianism of both governments, and a threat to safety and community for all of us.”

Image four description: Picture of the following text: “Why protest? The director of the FBI has stated that opening an office in Aotearoa will “counter China’s influence in the Pacific”. Law enforcement agencies in the USA are repressing the American people, cracking down on protest and resistance at the command of Trump’s authoritarian government. By welcoming the USA military and the FBI into Aotearoa, the New Zealand government is siding with the USA in an imperialist rivalry that threatens the sovereignty and safety of peoples in the Pacific and beyond.”

Join us and our comrades @ponekeantifa.bsky.social, International Socialist Organisation Aotearoa, @peacewellington.bsky.social and Te Tai Tētēkura on Saturday 6 September at Midland Park from 1PM as we march in opposition to the new FBI base and US troops here. www.facebook.com/events/65778...
