It's been 2 weeks since Tiny Glade launched, and 500k+ people have played the game. I believe the technical term for that is *bonkers* 😄 Seeing your creations, both big and small, is pure joy – THANK YOU for the amazing reception💖 We've just posted about what's next 🧵

Happy #Blocktober ! Today, sharing a look into the Level Design for Svartalfheim’s Nidavellir Port location in #GodOfWarRagnarok . This arena was a blast to design—collaborating with @DaNightTrain & seeing it come to life with the incredible work of everyone at @SonySantaMonica

Ahh Man, I don't normally like to jump on these things as it feels a bit opportunistic like some kinda Vulture. But with so many Redundancies in the UK Games Biz these last few weeks I just want people to know my inbox and phone is always open for a chat.

Really sad to see the layoff news today. We are hiring for a wide range of positions @IOInteractive, especially our new office in Brighton might be interesting for the @Mediatonic and @CAGames people. Feel free to reach out any time if you have questions. ioi.dk/careers

Heart goes out to anyone affected by the layoffs. Frustrated on so many levels by this. For now, sharing a list of marketing/community related jobs I've seen around below (can't vouch if they're good or not, sorry.) But hope you can take time and space to recover as well. ❤️

It's tough to hear about the ~900 layoffs at @EpicGames this morning. Legends of Runeterra is hiring for a Staff Software Engineer (pic below), and @riotgames in general has about 100+ job openings . Please signal boost for those affected. 🖤 riotgames.com/en/work-with-u…

Starting attempt at recreating #CS2's new interactive smoke physics in #Unity! 😶‍🌫️ Starting simple with some spherical voxel generation. Adjustable resolution, roundness, and scale; with geometry avoidance to curl 'around' objects. #gamedev #madewithunity @unitygames
