Hey there hi there ho there - we're doing intros? I'm Jay. Long ago I was a Jungle Cruise skipper at Disneyland. Today I'm a gamedev at Respawn Entertainment. I have 3 cats - Togepi, Moo, and Mothman. My hobbies are various tech-y things, working on my tiki bar, and my N-Scale model railroad!
You could tell me that Bluesky was taking off, but I didn't believe it until Defunctland showed up in my feed
Before Sam McKim's 1958 souvenir Disneyland wall map, this 1956 Bank of America brochure had one of the best early Park maps. Historians appreciate all those named places!
My one hit post on that other site that got me an 80 lvl. article about me (???) was when I made those Game Dev Dark Souls memes so I'm re-releasing them here for your use please enjoy ✨
Development of the Ping System in Apex Legends 🧵 Two of the most important things that led to it going well in development, imo. A quick thread...
I really wanted to like UFO 50 but bounced off it pretty hard. It has some great ideas but as a kid born in the 90s I don't have much nostalgia for 1980s-era game design/aesthetics. Someone tell me I'm not alone so I don't feel embarrassed about this opinion
@ozone.birb.house Hi! I'm a gameplay engineer over at EA, and I'd love an appropriate label!
@gamedevlist.bsky.social - not sure if you're maintaining anymore, but if you are it'd be great to be added. :)
