I loved Lily‘s garden! And I specifically loved it for the story. Best of luck finding your next opportunity.

Maybe she could get them telling decent stories again. :/

Wish I had the cash to buy HerInteractive, hire you, and rescue the Nancy Drew game franchise from its recent mediocrity. Hope you find a great gig!

antlervel.vet•104 days ago

God I’d love to write Nancy Drew anything

sammcastic.bsky.social•104 days ago

Commenting to boost, would share but I'm only a consumer of games, not in the industry. Good luck!

YOU WROTE LILY'S GARDEN? OMG

antlervel.vet•104 days ago

If that means you liked it, I’m glad!

dilettante-oji.bsky.social•104 days ago

yes! also i really hope that you've seen the ways people talk about it in the wild. that game has evocative evangelists, lowercase g gamers telling uppercase G gamers and non gamers alike that is so special and riveting&to give it a chance, and I don't think they mean the unique mechanics

antlervel.vet•104 days ago

That’s so kind of you to say, thank you

dilettante-oji.bsky.social•104 days ago

everyone should be finding to hire you on this basis alone

antlervel.vet•104 days ago

It doesn’t specify if remote is an option here, do you know one way or the other?

jasonxbergman.bsky.social•104 days ago

it should be. As a rule, we're a remote friendly studio (I'm remote!).

braziliananarchy.bsky.social•104 days ago

Lily's Garden ads are a blessing to the world.

stephenflorida.bsky.social•104 days ago

i didn't realize you were behind lily's garden! lily's relationship with her late aunt really sets the game apart in the early levels ♥️

i'm in mobile but most of my folks are on the product/adtech side - adding you on linkedin though in case i can intro you to someone in my network for a referral

soundaholism.bsky.social•104 days ago

I couldn't find anything relevant on my internal referral portal unfortunately 😔. Hope something comes your way soon!

weslynonwheels.bsky.social•104 days ago

I still play lily’s garden! It’s the only match 3 game where I truly enjoy the story and it keeps me coming back

frailoldwoman.bsky.social•104 days ago

I have no connections or leads for you but I do think you should include in your cover letters that you invented “ahh I’m cryin about _____”

antlervel.vet•104 days ago

That’s true. It’s very funny that I was sad my pet died

frailoldwoman.bsky.social•104 days ago

I thought that was you making fun of someone about something else. Hmm

antlervel.vet•104 days ago

No. It was others aping it to make fun of me for being sad that my pet rat died.

cherylbluewave.bsky.social•104 days ago

Of course, you're sad your pet rat died.

Some people are such jerks.

frailoldwoman.bsky.social•104 days ago

Well that’s stupid. Never mind.

jeffhamilton.bsky.social•104 days ago
