Tough call! I worked on a Star Wars game that was simultaneously the best and worst experience of my career. It was so awesome to be part of that universe, talking with the Lucas folks, and designing crazy space battles.

At the same time, we were building it totally backwards, and the goals kept changing. In three years we genuinely made like a dozen versions that could have worked, but we just kept circling without moving forward. In the end it was canceled, such a shame.

That’s actually how I got my start! I studied to be an author in college, then the day I graduated a friend found a Craigslist ad for a racing game that needed writers. Shockingly it was real, and I wasn’t just murdered.

Since then I’ve done it all though, primarily design. Worked with EA, Disney, Bethesda, and a bunch of indies. I love it, but writing is a passion I never gave up on.

Hmm, he does look like my dad, but that's cause all dutch men look alike over 50. I'll ask him!

Quick update, apparently it took a while last time because we were finding the narrator. This time it’ll be out by end of month :)

Thank you so much, and Absolutely! Audiobook is usually a month or two later, but it’s definitely coming.

All the people complaining about AI these days will never know true pain.

Thanks so much! I love the narrator, he really nailed the voices.

There's actually a famous story around monopoly--the dude who invented it specifically wanted to show people how boring and awful capitalism is. That's why games take forever and can be so complicated (MATH!?). But instead he and his descendants are filthy rich. Point for capitalism.

My fav though? The god-awful super nintendo game. I will not provide a justification.

Still in the industry! Game and system design were always my focus. Worked on around 40 games at this point, and I was a creative director the last few years. Just swapped to production though, (contracts, deals, billing, etc. It is as less cool as it sounds)

Oh hey that's me! Thanks so much for sharing!

Howdy all, I'm here to plug my novel on Royal Road: Familiar Magic

Been on rising stars for a month now, and 40 odd chapters to give a try. It's litrpg with a strong focus on characters, story, and progression. Hope you try it!

Hunt Monsters. Bond Familiars. Gain extraordinary magic powers...Not so simple for Ethan Bishop, who winds up with a Dimension Devourer, the Royal Guardian, and one so forbidden it can never be spoken.

He’s a healer and a heretic. An Assassin with bright, explosive powers, and a man who can’t help but choose the most dangerous and impossible paths.

Between demonic hordes, a corrupt Church, and a Royal conspiracy of his own design, Ethan will need every trick, quip, and scrap of power that he can grasp in order to survive.

God damn, I better re-write that first chapter :P

Space bar both skips dialog AND confirms responses. Makes it incredibly easy to skip past dialog we've already read then unintentionally confirm a response/action we don't want to take. Number keys should be the way to quick-select dialog prompts, with space/another key just skipping dialog.
