New video game Humble Bundle featuring turn-based tactics
When the game designer and concept artist make each other better (art roundup)
🧵This Molyneux quote has filled me with existential dread ever since I read it. It reminds me of one of my favorite collaborative moments working with @threeohfour.bsky.social. We were about 1/3 through Unavowed production. I asked him if he could animate some kind of idle animation for Eli.

This film is probably the first place I ever saw him. Once STAR TREK THE NEXT GENERATION started running, I watched this film again and was all "hey, that's the new captain!" RIP Sir Patrick.
