with bloom & rage out in the world, it’s finally time to start sharing some of my art ✨ one of my first tasks on the project was to explore the idea of our girls bonding together in the forest. we considered a number of settings and moments early on - happy this log crossing scene stuck around!

People are asking for writing advice again, so here is my perennial guidance for writing in video games 🔽

The fun thing about Montreal game dev is sometimes you’ll play another mtl made game and spot actors you’ve worked with in the cast 😂

It’s here!! It’s out!!! What a labor of love this game has been from every single person on the team. Now off to the world to enjoy youtu.be/j6zZcnjjXHA

I've worked with amazing tools and I've worked with "eh" tools and I can tell you, the "eh" tools are 100% false economy in the end. The time you put into improving your narrative tools is repaid exponentially across the game. (And builds trust and capacity with your narrative teams.)

The Internet Archive has to date downloaded 500 terabytes of US government websites, which it crawls at the end of every presidential term. The whole archive is fully searchable. This effort's housed by a donation-funded nonprofit, not a branch of the US government. blog.archive.org/2024/05/08/e...

Broke out the Tumblr to write some thoughts on the BioWare situation, and how despite it being divisive, The Veilguard may have just become one of the most important games in the studio's catalog. It's the final word from a team that wanted the world (both ours and Thedas) to be better.

Big recommend Ece Temelkuran’s books “How to Lose a Country” and “Together: A Manifesto Against the Heartless World” in these trying times. Her writing doesn’t mince words, but is also not fatalistic

The administration took down the reproductive rights website that women need access to. So The Skimm bought a url and brought the content back. Pass this on! Go to reproductiverightsdotgov.com

When I was working on a cyberpunk noir title I read the first couple pages of How to Blow Up a Pipeline for research. Now I’m reading it in my free time and devouring every page - highly recommend it (and the movie though the movie is fiction while the book is non-fiction) Stay informed!

But what if I figure out how the record player I have works today…what if I do that

SoCal friends: Many animal shelters are overwhelmed from people dropping off beloved pets they can't take with them as they flee. Please consider donating and fostering. Pasadena Humane is one such org. Contact your local animal orgs to see if they need help. pasadenahumane.org/eaton-canyon...

a thing you should probably *always* ask yourself when hearing about a strike is, “dang; what was so bad that people were willing to lose their pay to try and change?”

write that down, write that down! #DragonAgeVeilguard #BellaraLutare #NeveGallus

wish we could've seen more of these three together ;_;

I think it might be helpful for fans to understand, particularly re: writers - as a fan, you're experiencing the final version of the show/game/movies/etc. We, the writers (and many of the other artists) have experienced EVERY SINGLE version of it. We've lived with it ALL for YEARS, often. (cont'd)

I’ve been hit with the gun that lays you off so… hello, I’m Aysha, I write for games. Experience with both indie and AAA, along with IP writing and worldbuilding. I’ve lead teams and i’m great in a room. Hit me up

Always late posting on my own account, but working on these Lost Records trailers is always such a blast!! This time, we leaned fully into the Rage and left the Bloom behind. Pairing the Abyss with this Milk & Bone track? Easiest decision ever. 🖤 And yeah, f*** you Corey

Oh no I thought I had been spared but now the itch to write short #CaitVi fics has found me 💀
