Omg!! Mr. Kojima read Simon's book and gave an amazing review!! 😍
I just finished reading “The Dark that Doesn’t Sleep” by Simon Mockler. Wow, what a great read! This is a masterpiece. The author is definitely no ordinary writer. The first half feels like a mystery, then it shifts gears into an adventure novel that took me back to the stories I loved as a kid. Set during the Cold War era in the Arctic, the protagonist is a psychiatrist called in by the CIA to assess the sole survivor of a fire at a secret military base in Greenland. Every small oddity and mystery leads to even bigger ones, and just when you think you’ve got it figured out, the plot takes another unexpected twist. The pacing is perfect, with surprises and plot twists driving the story right up to the very end. I can’t recommend this enough!

The final week of the three weeks Unreal Game Fellowship. It touched base on everything, and I learned so much. Thank you @Int_Night for letting me have the time off.) Now, I need to finish my game by next week. 😺😻😸 #unrealfellowship #unrealengine

I am deeply saddened by the news. Brandon was an amazing, kind and fun person. It was terrific to work with him on ADF and play the game on Twitch. His contagious laugh always brought a smile to my face. My deepest condolences to his family and friends.A big hug to @MistyRayburn
Hi, friends. Shaysters here. It is with a heavy heart to post that our beloved SuperBlindMan is no longer with us as of today. @MistyRayburn was there by his side. Please allow her some time to grieve and be able to answer questions.

It was great to work with you, Brandon :)
So I sort of have yet another announcement that I can apparently make today. Last night, you may have noticed a trailer for #AsDuskFalls rereleasing on other platforms. Well, I'm proud to say I worked on that too, impoving accessibility even further alongside @ross_minor

Signed as a member of Future Class 2022. So proud to be in the same cohort with Younès. Please do the same and sign it too. Show the world that the games industry can make significant changes to the world.
The games industry's silence on the Palestinian genocide is disgusting, and this needs to change. To all gamedevs: Please read our letter to The Game Awards, sign it, and share it as much as you can. Palestinians need all the support we can give ✊🏽🇵🇸 📩forms.gle/oxnB1PKMxVuYUJUB6
