A small three carriage train crosses a grassy meadow, there are mountaims behind it and huge clouds tower above every else. Warm tones indicate it’s either sunrise or sunset. In this case its sunrise.

Here's what I worked on:

these are like, all my favourite games 🥺I hope you find something soon!

Portfolio — Hazel Monforton Senior Narrative Designer (2021—2024)

It's been one year since I was laid off, and my contract with Blizzard ends in two months. I'm still looking for my next role as a senior writer or narrative designer!

I have over 8 years of experience working in AAA games from live service MMOs to single player. You can find my work on my website.

using this meme to show off more of my WIPs for this piece I did recently 😎(also I think about this circle all the time when I make art now and it makes it so much easier to make things!)

👀gonna save this for later, thanks for the vis!

Always happy to recommend running a Plex.tv server to listen to/watch your own media files anywhere. I stream to my phone in the car, to a laptop or set-top device while traveling, etc.

Once again, Newgrounds remains one of the only good places left on the internet to share and look at art.

#MakeRoom is releasing in 1 week! I'm so excited to see what you'll create 🎉 Have you wishlisted yet? That way you will be notified on release;

I'm so happy to share that the stairs update is liiiiiive. This is by far our biggest update that we've been cooking since *checks calendar* omg, since March x_x Huge thanks to everyone who helped us test it while in beta <3

Now lemme walk you through some of the new shinies 🧵

fr, I've been meaning to cancel spotify for ages and this really feels like the last nail in the coffin for me.

An image of a huge jackboot crushing a comic artist and a bunch of comic pages. The boot is marked by the logos for MasterCard, Visa, Paypal, and Stripe. Below the image there is text which reads: Don't let Payment Processors tell YOU what you can buy! It is not a payment processor's role to decide what kind of content you can or cannot spend money on, so long as it is a legal transaction. Fight back against the unjust policies hurting artists and creators online! https://yellat.money/ https://stop-paypros.neocities.org/

Let's Keep Calling!

Bsky asking me to age verify yesterday to access dms just rubs me the wrong way and I dont feel comfortable with my face being used for data (I've never used face ID for signing into my phone or anything). I dont trust any of whats happening rn and its all v much giving black mirror vibes

Honestly the schnanigans with the UK government ID systems + google and spotify and every other company now jumping on this trend just makes me really sad. Growing up around the internet when it was fun and seeing it decline this way feels exhausting and I also dont know how to quit at the same time

anyone else just really *really* craving going back to physical media? No ads, no montetisation, no government survellience, just burning CD files onto your phone and enjoying it in its purest form

We are incredibly disappointed by the Labour government's decision to seek advice from such a narrow segment of our industry. You can find our open letter here: www.gameworkers.co.uk/open-letter-...

do not get distracted and waste precious time and energy getting mad at Itch. regardless of how well or not theyve handled the situation, fundamentally, the blame and ire NEEDS to be directed at the people holding the gun to Itch's head

direct your anger in a PRODUCTIVE direction

Progress on my #doom mod, which features my cat. When he hears the sounds of the Dreamies' tub being shaken, he will wake and run as fast as possible towards you.

Cats do love them some Dreamies
