A neat quote from a GDC talk of a project manager from Duolingo once said โ€œA hole in your team is better than a-hole.โ€

As someone whoโ€™s been sim racing since 2017 on multiple games, youโ€™re going to love it. Thereโ€™s no wrong choices and the communities are great!

Do you want the $2 bill or another $1 bill? If youโ€™re at Gamescom next year, I can help out with your dream ๐Ÿ˜‚

So happy to see all the announcements and news coming from devcom and gamescom! I, on the other hand, went and touched grass

Watching #n24 #nurburgring as much as I can during the closing hours! One of the best events on the year

Oh the textures and models from MGS and Vagrant Story would be a nice touch. Would still fit with the style

Art of Rally and NFS Heat are also really good ones for handling variations

Watching the first half then getting on an 8 hour flight was not good for my health. But arriving in Germany to amazing news was worth it. Go birds

The challenges this time around were getting more involved with pixel art and terrain sculpting. As well as following a process of sketch, quick whitebox, test, blockout, test, etc. Might make a video on what this looks like for track development

so during the holidays, I did the responsible thing and relaxed...sike! Made another track for @walaber.com #PGRC game. This latest track is inspired by High Velocity (SEGA), Initial D, and Touge

welp, new year, new me bs. I'm playing Quake 2 now. Are all the mods only for Quake 1? Feel like all tutorials and Slipgate are only for Quake 1

Yeah not sure either itโ€™s live service vs other games. From non-industry friends, theyโ€™ll play 1-2 live service games and play 2-3 new AAA titles per year. Indies arenโ€™t even on the radar for them.

so just completed #GT7 campaign again (since release) after completing #GT4. These are 2 wildly different games tackling different goals. #GT4 focused on how amateurs can progress to professional racing. #GT7 focused on the cars, their history, brand, prestige, and celebrating them

One of the very first people Iโ€™ve worked with at King Art was Bart. And let me tell you, he moves worlds and somehow has time to help lil Level Designers like myself. He performs miracles and has cat pics to back it up!
