We’re hiring designers at naughty dog. If you love the kind of games we make and want to help us keep making them please apply. Im looking for folks that have a keen sense for level design, get the fundamentals but also feel passionate about pushing the discipline forward. Cheers

Going a little overboard with greyboxing. #leveldesign #source2 #HalfLifeAlyx

About to make a huge life change, will announce when it's official 😎

Me, after frantically trying to find some important paperwork all night and sending emails to my old local authority and the embassy at 5 in the morning ... Might as well get ready for work now.

Finally got around to updating my portfolio with some of the work I did on Far Cry 6 and Incursion, a collab with Nate Grove (who's now at Valve) on a wave based arena level for Half-Life Alyx. maartenfrooninckx.mystrikingly.com

Welcome to #Alpine, a luxurious resort nestled in one of the world's premier mountain ranges. A haven for skiing, climbing, relaxing, and taking hostages. From @lukyvald.bsky.social, @twinnienl.bsky.social, g3om, and myself comes a new map for @counter-strike.net.

ATTENTION INDIEDEVS Show off your art style

Politics affects everyone.

Museum of Asian art in the Humboldt Forum.

Alte Nationalgalerie.

Neues muzeum.

Another weekend, another museum, found these cocky little fellas.

This is fucked up on so many levels. Same with the 10y old recovering from cancer, who is a us citizen, being dropped off in Mexico. If you are in the US, being silent is being complicit. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_T...

Imagine what a badass you gotta be to have an armor made from shark teeth.

Froggo got cheeks

Some more pics I snapped today as I visited the Bode-Museum.

Went to a bookstore, but it was closed due to International Women's Day. So I decided to go for a walk instead and took some pics.

Since I enjoyed Sprawl and Prodeus a lot, recommend me some more modern boomer shooters?

Took me a while to get around to playing it, but Prodeus is a very enjoyable "retro-styled" fps. The arc rail rifle is a beast, probably one of the most fun weapons in games. store.steampowered.com/app/964800/P...

Damn, textures.com dropped the free monthly credits -_-

More work on Shelter. Trying to wrap up the initial art pass of the adoption center. #cs2 #counterstrike #leveldesign #source2

Seeing a work calendar devoid of meetings for the next couple months is .... scary.

Mod makers rejoice: The Team Fortress 2 SDK has arrived! We've updated the Source SDK with all of TF2's client and server game code. Change, extend, or rewrite TF2, and publish them as mods on Steam. www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=...

Wish me luck. Sussy meeting titled, "project name project update" appeared on my calendar after months of uncertainty, and the leads had an impromptu meeting 30 minutes prior .... >_>

Disco Elysium blowing up the way it did should be evidence that there’s no predicting the games market. Imagine trying to tell a money guy that game of the year was gonna be an Estonian visual novel by communists where you can pet the mailbox and say “I want to make fuck with you”

Nothing is lovelier than waking up to the soothing sound of German roommates verbally fighting each other at 8 a.m. on a Saturday ... /s

As a level designer Gears 5’s absolutely gigantic bogs inspire me. The sheer commitment to the metrics. The respect shown to the camera. The sheer vastness of these lavvys. Like havin a jobby in an art gallery.

My deepest sympathy to the 65 people affected by layoffs in Dusseldorf, and the 50- ish people in Ubisoft Leamington due to the studios closure. I haven't heard about the other affected studios yet. It is starting to hit very close to home ... 🥲 www.eurogamer.net/ubisoft-anno... #gamedev #ubisoft

The US is on an incredibly dangerous path to autocracy. www.axios.com/2025/01/24/t...
