"Running" 😂😅 #hollerballer #indiegamedev #gamedev #94interactive

I really enjoyed my time in Aveiro, Portugal. I’ve lived in Portugal for years and been back once or twice a year since and have never been to the “Venice of Portugal” A nearby beach has these painted, striped houses with a ton of character 🇵🇹 #portugal #travel

Some A.M. hockey today

My fiancé’s a chef and bought a new sharpener for the house. It came with bandaids in case you cut yourself after sharpening your knives Just chefs kiss marketing and branding, love it! #cheflife #branding #marketing #tormek

Getting development updates on unannounced games is a delight.

This was a very tough year finding the time for Global Game Jam but, I had a blast building this super quirky figging game all from 🇵🇹! Truly out the global in global game jam this year, and can’t wait for a proper weekend full of game dev next year! #globalgamejam #gamedev #indiedev

If anyone in Lisbon would like to meet up, I’ll be in town until the 3rd! #gamedevlisbon #lisbon #gamedevs

So pumped to be back to outdoor ice hockey! Great reprieve from the desk

Feels good going into the new year with a cleaned up desk and new peripherals locked into the setup #gamedev

Here’s to 2025! 🎉

Still looking for any musicians interested in collaborating for my upcoming game! #freelancers #musicians #music #gamedev #indiedev

My holiday gamer buyer guide recommendation is just this

Anyone know of musicians interested in making original music for games?(or have a catalogue I can license directly) I have a project which needs some “Drum & Bass” music in the form of menu background loops and or in game songs. Think rocket league style. #gamemusic #musicians #gamedev #freelancer

Successful work trip down to Austin this past week! Always a pleasure and exciting to see the growth and presence of games in the city #Austin #gamedev #holidayparties

Am I crazy? or does this Aldi in East Liberty, Pittsburgh look straight out of Europe. It even has a parking garage upstairs like many in Portugal/EU

Our first original title, DISPATCH, a superhero workplace comedy where choices matter. Starring Aaron Paul, Laura Bailey and Jeffrey Wright. Watch the Extended Trailer & Wishlist at dispatchgame.com

This is so cool, I worked on the early POC for this project and get to see it announced during the #videogameawards ign.com/articles/dis... #gamedev @adhocstudio.com

📢 EEEP!!! MYTHWRECKED is OUT NOW After *3 years* my next indie game (following Röki) is OUT NOW on Steam, Xbox and Nintendo Switch... 🏝️ Explore a secret island ⚡️ Meet the gods of legend 🔎 Uncover the truth, behind the myth

Had some “fun” with the 3D Printer this week Note the Benchy making a guest appearance because I thought my printer exploded, sanity restored I discovered it was the result of some flipped normals and ended up with a solid print 👍

Quite the PR for HollerBaller! #indiegamedev #gamedev #unity #hollerballer

I've spent my extra day off post holidays cleaning up my archives and stumbled upon this hand painted Corn Stalk I made and I'm surprised to say it still holds up! #gamedev

Got to love some warm Polygon Soup in the morning #gamedev #rigging #Maya #indiegamedev

The Headroom on this thing! #hollerballer #gamedev

If you can use some translucent(blurred) backgrounds on Unity Canvas elements This asset has worked wonders for me and is simple to use. It’s 50% off atm assetstore.unity.com/packages/too... #gamedev #unity #unityassets

Sometimes I forget the limitations of height, a note from my girlfriend this AM 😆

Guarańa 🇵🇹 🇧🇷 a treat from back “home” in Portugal

ARKit Facial Mocap is amazing! Awesome to work with inside Unity's Facial Capture feature Here is the new Female character for HollerBaller rigged and in engine for the first time! #madewithunity #indiegamedev #gamedev #facialmocap #hollerballer @94interactive.bsky.social

Turns out I’m not the only one keep tracking of trash night around here, raccoon jumped right out from behind my trash cans #trashpanda #holycrapinearlyshitmyself

We’ve got the female character in engine! The rigged model is in review and we should be clear to start blocking out cinematics soon! #hollerballer #madewithunity

Been a while since I’ve done some early weekend morning gaming, feels good!

Tried updating to #unity6 today, ran into a major problem with rendering. Seemed to be shadows at first but, even when disabled the artifacts still occur. Does anyone have any suggestions for fixes? #unity #unitysupport #unity6

In the spirit of #Blocktober I wanted to share this cyberpunk scene I found cleaning out my hard drive...this is circa 2018 while I was working at Schell Games and #madewithunity I'm a full time engineer these days so I don't have as many opportunities to make and share art as I used to
