One of my absolute fave people is @danzzig.bsky.social. Dude is genuinely just the best bean and I will forever be grateful for his friendship, and constant support. Love you mate.
My Emerald City inspired build is coming on nicely. I love playing Midnight Moments. It's the perfect game to unwind after a stressful day. One of those games that helps you quieten the noise & just get into a zen like flow. Wishlist to help us get it seen: store.steampowered.com/app/4666090/...
Sneak peek at my Develop Conference talk tomorrow. 5 Easy Steam Store Page Tweaks to Boost Your Visibility | 12 pm | Room 3 Nervous and excited in equal parts. Possibly the first wheelchair-using speaker at Develop, too, I think. Hope to see some of you wonderful lot there.
When you spend your Saturday night playing the game your team is making, by choice, you know you've made something special. Creepy podcast on, Midnight Moments on the new laptop, and two fans pointed at me. 10 points if you can guess what inspired this build(in progress).
Bed rest this week has been boring and painful. But I managed to finish my Develop Presentation last night and scripted it this morning. Let's pimp those Steam pages.
Super proud to announce that I'm one of the first to join the @womeningames.bsky.social Creator Club. Thank you to @kawaiifoxita.bsky.social for organising such a wonderful initiative and to the whole WiG team for everything you do to champion us all. #womeningames #girlsingames #gamedev
Tony Head is incredible in Band Candy. Him and Kristine Sutherland are flawless and so very sexy. 10/10 episode.
Do I know anyone who could crochet a snake for me in a couple of weeks? My niece is obsessed with snakes and it's her 2nd birthday at the end of the month. I keep seeing these and I think she would love one
The #DevelopHERAwards nominations are open and I want to nominate women who deserve that spotlight. Disabled and neurodivergent women especially, because we are far too often celebrated for surviving this industry rather than for thriving in it. 🧵3/5
It's #DisabilityPrideMonth and I want to use it to celebrate women in games with disabilities and/or neurodiversity. If you fall into the above categories, I want to know about you! 🧵1/5
Seeing a friend achieve her dreams is the best feeling. Alex is incredible 😍
Y'all best be planning on tuning in to season 3 of #Silo tomorrow. The absolute queen that is Alex was sensational in the first two seasons and I cannot wait to have her back on our telly. So incredibly proud of her and everything she has achieved since we left uni. #welshtalent
Just found this banging Sonic waistcoat from '92 on Vinted for the boy. How sick is this?!?
😍I genuinely really love Midnight Moments. 🌃Building little worlds and watching them come to life satisfies my ADHD hobby itch. ☔The rain, the neon, the ambient sound. It all adds up to the most cozy and gorgeous game.
Why did I even bother to do make up today. It's literally drippin off my face.
Joining the unhinged Develop: Brighton post club. Enjoy.
Happy father's day to my incredible husband. Zacky and I are so incredibly lucky to have you by our side.
When you get to work on a game as cool as Midnight Moments you know you've done something right in your career.
We just updated the demo for Midnight Moments. HUGE shout-out to @japsonze.bsky.social for working tirelessly on this update. Man's a legend.
This shortlist is STACKED & I need to shout every single one of them because they are epic: Rim, Anni, Jonas, Najmah, Sabrina, Gem, Warren, Lyndy, and my new friend Nareice! 🥂 A special shout to @thewobblygamer.bsky.social, an incredible accessibility advocate who absolutely deserves this.
I'm overwhelmingly humbled to share that I've been shortlisted in the Marketing category at this year's #GameDevHeroes awards 🎉 Yesterday I had a little happy cry. Then I opened the wider shortlist & woke my toddler up with whooping over my friends noms. He has not forgiven me. Completely worth it.
All made up ready to record a Midnight Moments stream for the store page. And I just gotta shout out Glisten Cosmetics a cosplay make up brand @opalink.bsky.social put me on to. My god are their liners just incredible.
Back when I was teaching, one of my first schools had an art gallery that I would walk through each morning. One day I walked in to Mr J. The students were so cool.
