So freaking proud of the Piece By Piece team - we're now in an official bundle with @ustwogames.co.uk!! How cool is that!?
As ever, I'm so thankful that I got to work on such a beautiful game, let alone as its composer. This project really has been the gift that keeps on giving!
Also, shout out to the wonderful @kanaratron.bsky.social for the 'No Gen AI' Seal!
Saturday's talk at MCM Comic Con/EGX went fantastically well! It's always really cool looking back on older talks and seeing how much more confident I am now on stage. Feeling very proud ☺️
Just want to shout out to Game UI Database - it's a resource I use frequently to find UI/UX references for games. Tonight I needed to look a screen up on my phone for someone, and of course the site's filters work beautifully on mobile. Thank you @eddcoates.bsky.social 🙏

My favorite go-to is gameuidatabase.com by @eddcoates.bsky.social, it's a database with many UI designs from all over gaming. Neatly organized, and so much inspiration!
The ultimate tool for Game UI and Interface designers. Explore over 1,300 games and 55,000 UI screenshots. Browse and filter by category, animation, colour, material, layout, game genre, and more.

I added an anti-AI badge to the Game UI Database! Every one of the 72,684 (and counting!) screenshots on the site has been painstakingly tagged BY HAND with no AI assistance.
If you're a creative, consider adding a similar disclaimer to your work to get the credit you deserve.

Update: They posted an apology, promising to learn from their mistakes.

Dead As Disco is FANTASTIC, and I just found out you can add your own music tracks. So, naturally...
