I will be at Develop Brighton with @ga5p0d3 and I am excite!

If that sounds like you, say hello 👋

Looking at data from VGInsights (supposedly accurate +/- 5%), 2024 is looking REALLY good for total Steam revenue.

Like 28% increase on 2023 so far this year...

Loving my journey of learning more about Procedural Generation. Did some more playing about with Apparance last night. Even the simple things are SO satisfying 😁 #GameDev #IndieDev #ProcGen #ProceduralGeneration
Working with the talented folks at Salix Games, Apparance was used to create this STUNNING walled garden prototype: 🧵 4/5
Some other cool things you might not know about is this awesome procedurally generated New York City built from OpenStreetmap data. Once the NY demo was done, amazingly, in just one afternoon the same procedures were used to create a London version. 🧵 3/5
I’ve known Sam for about 10 years now and have watched him pour so much into Apparance. I feel it’s really something pretty special and have been blown away by what I’ve seen it do. You may know it from Gloomhaven… 🧵 2/5

Thread: New gig alert!

I’ve realised what I find most fulfilling is helping games businesses (and people) grow. With that heading, I’m stoked to share that I’m now a fractional COO for https://apparance.uk, a #gamesindustry #procgen #startup founded by @ga5p0d3

Home for Apparance, tools and technology for building games fully procedurally.

After a month spent at home, I'm back on the road. I love living/working from a van. It makes no sense as I have a fraction of the room, but it just works for me🤷

Started a rewatch of The Mandalorian. S1E1 is just class right out the gate 🤌
A tour of Brussels, via the medium of vegan food. A good way to spend a weekend...
