Isometric 2D concept art/diorama of a tiny studio flat that some dogs use as their private detective office. The style is flat shaded and chunky. The interior is green, orange and medium browns.

oscillating between the "i'm god" and "i'm nothing" of digging around in render code to exploit some stencil masks and realizing i have to learn how bitwise operators work.............

No, Geoff Keighleyβ€”Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 was not made by a team of 'under 30 developers,' and devs say repeating the myth is 'a dangerous path' SGF's fascination with small staff sizes discredits the integral work of external contractors and contributors.

Good morning. It's Saturday and I'm writing news.

"It's not hard to imagine ways in which repeating the myth of Clair Obscur's team size could contribute to worse conditions for games and the people developing them."

Holy shit, the game I worked on for three years is finally announced! I did a lot of tech and combat design work on this game and I'm so proud of it.

That big hammer weapon at the end of the trailer was my baby, I designed and implemented most of it with help from amazing artists and programmers :3
