34) finishing creative projects is a skill in and of itself. if you want to be able to finish large, complex projects, you have to _practice finishing things_. which usually means doing smaller projects.

Autism is: fine, common, normal
The problem is a world where only some brains are valuable/able to succeed.
If we are concerned about Autism as a "problem," there are real tangible things we could be doing to make the world better for everyone instead of pretending we can prevent neurodiversity.

The ROM for the unreleased Virtual Boy game Virtual League Baseball 2 has surfaced online. It was planned to be released in 1996 but was ultimately shelved.
About 3 decades later and we can now play this once lost game. Play ball!

Itโs not exposed as a public API, but I figured out a way to read it and make it sound like an old wooden door.

Expectation: Being ridiculed (I'm not super good at C++)
Reality: Super kind and chill contributors pointing out some mistakes and having constructive feedback. I even got my first PR merged :>!

Post from Matt Turnbull:
These are really challenging times, and if youโre navigating a layoff or even quietly preparing for one, youโre not alone and you donโt have to go it alone.
I know these types of tools engender strong feelings in people, but I'd be remiss in not trying to offer the best advice I can under the circumstances. Iโve been experimenting with ways to use LLM AI tools (like ChatGPT or Copilot) to help reduce the emotional and cognitive load that comes with job loss.
Here are some prompt ideas and use cases that might help if you're feeling overwhelmed:
Career Planning Prompts:
โAct as a career coach. Iโve been laid off from a [role] in the game industry. Help me build a 30-day plan to regroup, research new roles, and start applying without burning out.โ
โWhat kinds of game industry jobs could I pivot to with experience in [Production/Narrative/LiveOps/etc.]?โ
Resume & LinkedIn Help
โHereโs my current resume. Give me three tailored versions: one for AAA, one for platform/publishing roles, and one for startup/small studio leadership.โ
โRewrite this resume bullet to highlight impact and metrics.โ
โDraft a new LinkedIn โAbout Meโ section that focuses on my leadership style, shipped titles, and vision for game development.โ
Networking & Outreach
โDraft a friendly message I can send to old coworkers letting them know Iโm exploring new opportunities.โ
โWrite a warm intro message for reaching out to someone at [studio name] about a job posting.โ
Emotional Clarity & Confidence
โIโm struggling with imposter syndrome after being laid off. Can you help me reframe this experience in a way that reminds me what Iโm good at?โ
No AI tool is a replacement for your voice or your lived experience. But at a time when mental energy is scarce, these tools can help get you unstuck faster, calmer, and with more clarity.
If this helps, feel free to share with others in your network.
Stay kind, stay smart, stay connected.
Matt Turnbull, Executive Producer at Xbox Game Studios Publishing - after the Microsoft layoffs - suggesting on Linkedin that may maybe people who have been let go should turn to AI for help. He seriously thought posting this would be a good idea.
