Alwa’s Legacy is one of my favourite games. Something about the visual style makes it feel like a lost classic from the SNES. It’s not perfect but I love playing it so much.

I have a catchy dance vocal track on Spotify. Would love if you had a listen 😎

Ergh. The UK is very hot. Trains have been very disrupted. And our houses aren’t well equipped for the heat so we are just sitting melting 🫠

🤩🥳

It’s 10:40pm and it’s 20 degrees C. This is not fun.

Shiny Zacian! 😎

I stopped posting for a bit because nobody seemed to reply.

So … let’s try again. Hello!

If there was a new professional networking tool (think LinkedIn adjacent) what do you think would make it worth using?

So ... Substack or Beehiiv ?

I did this:
- blog
- substack
- blog + mailerlite
- new blog
- beehiiv
- ??

I can't sit still! I don't have many subscribers on Beehiiv so I'm pondering whether to start over ... again ...

Looks like the #doctorwho rumour mill is in full swing.

This is just the bookies putting Tennant at 5-1.

I think the most likely outcome at the moment is a year or two off the air while they wait and figure out what’s next. No idea if Ncuti will stay but he probably won’t wait forever.

Finished Ozark! That was a good watch 🙌

I haven’t listened to Big Finish before, but I might pick this up. The 2005 series is “fantastic”!

I need to know … have you ever had these? They’re the best 🤩

Oh yeah, I did another newsletter post today.

Very cute cat! 🐈

@cianducrot.bsky.social congrats on your Grammy 😎

Uh oh - LinkedIn what did I miss?

It turns out, nothing. I’m not surprised - but that icon gets me every time.

Ah those levels are tricky! Keep trying 😅

Sundays in January: the hardest time to get up in the morning. In the Northern Hemisphere, anyway.

😅

Having a blast with Blast Brigade. Great Metroidvania 🙌

Blast Brigade is a great game!

I think I need to go back and make a definitive list of every Metroidvania I’ve played. There are so many. The Switch got me started.

Started playing Blast Brigade. Awesome Metroidvania!

Error flows: help me understand what I did wrong Otherwise I'm going to get it wrong again.

Latest post on my newsletter is about error flows, and a confusing experience I had with Soundcloud for Artists. #ux #productmanagement @soundcloud.bsky.social
