Four years of my life were spent caring A LOT about tiny creatures and working with amazing people at Polyarc. So excited for Quill to go mainstream. Congrats to my former studio on the release of Moss: The Forgotten Relic on Switch/Switch 2, Playstation, Xbox, and Steam!!! www.polyarcgames.com

Monochrome Monday

MJ Smiles@misajoy· May 11

Mondays am I right? Our doggy house guest Tilly is giving some Garfield vibes about it and I quite agree. Where is the lasagna when you need it?

My favorite bot in the game for maybe sort of obvious reasons

I'm very sorry this happened. I pull an affirmation and manifestation card everyday and thought you might be able to use the one I pulled today.

This is #WhatAGameDevLooksLike 18 years in Game Dev—this year my career would be able to buy a lottery ticket. Seems appropriate as I've had a lot of luck. Worked on lots of genres & always tried to make sure all types of players were considered. That's why I love being a PM (minus the evil).

If we lived closer I would bring my Japanese imported copy of Brigandine over. I haven't played in a really long time. Have fun!!!

Without downloading any new pics, where are you mentally?

Valentine's Day 🎁 for my husband this year was a trip to the local card shop for TMNT MtG pre-orders. Everyone's favorite turtles were "Est. in 1984" as were both of us so we always get each other gifts themed to our favorite turtles (which started right after we met).

Magic the Gathering card packs spread out next to two collector's card boxes in green to like cubed versions of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with their trademark masks (one orange and one purple). The Michealangelo is cheekily sticking out his tongue while the Donatello looks skeptical.

A couple smiling in front of a graffitied brick wall. Both are wearing glasses, winter coats, and she has a blue scarf with anchors on it. The man has salt and pepper grey hair cut short and the woman has blonde hair pulled back into a ponytail.

Share a canceled TV show you'll never stop thinking about (This one is now one of the top streamed shows on Prime, because Emily Bader's other project. I wish that means its cancelation will get reconsidered, but I know that is delulu.)

We played a fun game tonight that resulted in these masterpieces.

MJ Smiles@misajoy· Oct 24

Me + my comfort movie 📰

A young newsboy, played by Christian Bale, is held on the shoulders of the other newsboys while news papers are thrown in the air in celebration. The description reads "A Winner!"

I met a local author yesterday. I found her book accident, but enjoyed it SO much that I have been telling everyone about it (esp. all the local indie bookstores I frequent).We have been DMing for months about book stuff and it was so nice to enjoy the human connection behind the art.

Roll that beautiful toe-bean footage.
