Happy launch day!!! Sad to be missing the big day with players while out at GameSoundCon, but stoked for them to be experiencing Castora and all the new content. I'm hoping to post some BTS on the sound design I got to work on over the next few weeks, so keep an eye out :)

I've been unemployed since Feb 2025 when I got laid off from Unbroken Studios. I've applied to nearly 300 jobs. Got some interviews, loads of auto rejections, and no offers. I kept wondering what I was doing wrong.
Just this past Friday, I finally got my first offer letter.

2 years ago today, we closed on our house. April 1st remains the wildest day to wire $20,000 to some random place while at your bank, but uh, still have a house so...

All I have to (flippantly) add to the GenAI debate is the fact I wrote the Automatons theme on pencil and paper 😅

ALT Paper sketch of my automaton theme from Helldivers 2. Please note though that I'm just having a bit of fun with this irony, I understand it's a complex issue…!

Sadly I was impacted by todays layoffs at Epic. Still processing as I just found out like 20 minutes ago.
Probably going to jump straight into the job hunt... if anybody has any leads for Environment Art roles I would greatly appreciate it.

'Arc Raiders' has started replacing AI voices with human ones 🎮
The CEO admits they are 'better'
"There is a quality difference. A real professional actor is better than AI; that’s just how it is"

I've been impacted as well.
A disappointing end for Esports Insider, and especially tough knowing how many talented journalists poured their time and knowledge in it.
It’s been a privilege to contribute alongside them
Esports Insider (ESI), after nearly a decade as a cornerstone of professional esports business and consumer journalism, has effectively collapsed following a devastating manual penalty from Google.

Just gotta keep reminding myself that a 6am flight on the daylight savings switch was worth saving $150. 😂🤪

I've made a point to stay off this hellsite, but crossposting that I've been impacted by a layoff wave at Riot. If you need content operations, content/brand strategy, tooling/systems leadership, product/project management then hit me up. 13 years experience in games alone.
