We announced our debut game: BALLGAME. I'm feeling all sorts of things. I've been wanting to make video games since I was 7 years old so this is a dream come true no matter how it goes. We're going to be at Day of the Devs. Come and play demo and meet the team.

Every time a new AI tool drops, someone says something like “musicians are in trouble.” We keep acting like the only thing between us and a masterpiece is access to better tools. It isn’t. Anyone can write but not everyone can write a poem worth reading. So let’s calm the fuck down.

Never wanted a business to succeed like Dropout. Feels like everyone is having fun and doing great work.

Leap Year will either infuriate you or delight you. Only way to find out is to spend $5 and play it. #videogames

So, it’s my favorite game of all time and yet I get that it can be hard to get into. The game is really about getting to fully understand the story of the places you visit and by the end it was a really profound experience (for me). I would always recommend to push through.

He’s right. Superman is going to be so hard to get right. Especially for modern audiences.

I was 13 when Shadow of the Beast came out. It’s hard to articulate how revolutionary this looked and sounded at the time. I knew I wanted to work in graphics the second I saw it and I think about it to this day.

feels like a Fast and Furious movie where they keep adding members to the team. Except everyone is awful and none of them care about family.

Free will always lead to a dark place. Incentive to monetize your behavior and attention doesn’t lead to a good product.

If The Brutalist teaches us anything it’s that every +3h movie should have an intermission.
