Sometimes it's tough to focus on things like work when there's just an avalanche of anxiety-inducing things happening

The family black sheep. I post a mix-tape of gaming, UX / UI, and random thoughts, sprinkled with memes and hot takes.

Had fun with this one. Made in Figma.
I used line shapes but rotated them and resized some to 0.5px size to get them to not be as blocky, because Figma let me do it. The full thing is still only 8x8

Save directly to your brain!
#Figbruary 4 - Radial Menu for a game
Mocked this up fairly quickly in Figma. Timeboxed myself because I realized that each radial menu can spur more radials and didn't want to go down that rabbit hole right now ๐
Doing the @figma.com #figbruary prompts when they call to me this year. Here's my day 2 prompt - minimal music player
Bluesky was not great for the video format on this one (too tall), so I've just included some images for now.

So, we still all doing daily Wordles or has that trend passed? I've gone from pandemic level of daily solving to like twice a week if I remember.

Excited for the bigger screen and improved controllers.
