You can't make this shit up. On April 11th, Bethesda were tweeting about Tango Gameworks and HI-FI Rush winning *A BAFTA* for Best Animation. Tango Gameworks retweeted. On May 7th, Microsoft shuts down Tango Gameworks and the studio tweets announcing this. The state of games.

10,000+ jobs cut. Studios closed. Project cancelled. Phenomenal talent lost and will be lost. Irreversible damage done to the industry that'll take years to repair. Well done people at the top. Can't wait to see what bonuses people gave themselves for Christmas.

Can we stop asking people who don't want kids why they don't want kids? No, I don't don't want kids because I hate children. There's maturity in knowing you couldn't provide a kid with the love and care they deserve. And no, this doesn't mean people just need reassurance, either.

Marketing in games is misunderstood. You still hear stories about studios hiring marketing people and getting upset when they don't deliver immediate results. So much of marketing is research and planning. It's not just random tweets or paid ads. Let marketers do their job.

If you're an industry body hosting an event involving alcohol, the responsibility of keeping people safe lands on YOU. As I've now learned, we have *once again* failed to keep people safe. And this makes me very angry and very sad.

Hello gamescom attending industry minorities 🚨 I have ordered and hope to bring with me some anti-spike drink covers. If you see me at any evening parties, you *do not* have to know me. If you want some, please just approach me and say you saw my tweet. Stay safe out there 💚

Something I've realised recently... I don't wanna work on the next big budget triple-A game. I don't have a dream studio to work for. I don't even necessarily know what my dream title is. But I do know something...

"Today's forecast: 100% chance of pain!" Happy Halloween, noughties-style. Look forward to seeing some of you in a couple of hours for the @GameDevsNorth Party 🎃🔥 The rest of you... will sadly miss the opportunity to see my costume in person.

I'm so sorry if you're sick of hearing about my new house but I grew up poor, so having some of these things and so much space to myself with my own money is wild. On that note, my living room has a fake fireplace heater!

@AllanCudicio The fact that this happened at all is disgusting enough but you having to convince this person otherwise instead of him taking your word for it just makes it so much worse... I'm so sorry you had to go through this.

A very happy launch day to Grapple Dogs: Cosmic Canines and @JoGribbin 🐶🐶💛 Grapple Dog was my first credited game and got a wee bit emotional seeing myself in the credits for Grapple Dogs too. Thanks Joe! Check out the game when it launches later today on PC, Xbox & Switch!
