I really liked The SΓ©ance of Blake Manor! Interesting story, awesome artwork, great voice acting, and game mechanics that really support the anxiety-inducing setting. It's firmly at the top of my "story deduction games to play with your friend or loved one" recommendation list.
Old Skies has won TWO Adventure Game Hotshot awards, in the categories of βBest Storyβ and βBest Sci Fiβ. Thank you so much, @aghotspot.bsky.social!
people be careful about posting your favorite 9 video games these trends may seem harmless but in fact they may lead other people to learn about you and ways they find you relatable !
Congratulations!
As the female, British protagonist voice of a game set in New York, I can safely say: specificity is key.
It doesnβt always matter what the choices you make are, it matters that you choose.

Guess who won a UKIE award???? Yep itβs LIMIT BREAK BABYYYYYY @limitbreak.co.uk @ukieofficial.bsky.social
As a fellow CP person: sincerely congratulations.
For any new voice actors: this is a ploy designed to get you to offer a very low rate, by you reflexively going βno no we can sort something outβ. They often do have the budget to pay standard rates but are hoping to con you.
The person above wanted to pay me $20 for a trailer.
OS is among such incredible company- and really, with this type of award weβre all winners!
Iβm taking this as a sign that my reel feels ***expensive***
Career stage unlocked:
A particular type of prospective client saying stuff like βI donβt know if we can afford youβ¦.πβ rather than sharing their budget.
βWhy would you go public when we privately tried to screw you over?β
I am vicariously enjoying seeing you scare them.
Iβve also recently been consulting for game designers adapting their projects for TV and film- writing dialogue, converting branching to linear storytelling, and honing pitch documents to sell the project best.
So if youβre moving your game to a new medium, I can help!

There was some chatter about the Old Skies blooper and commentary reel here on BlueSky, so I made this little mini supercut version. It's only a tiny fraction of what appears within the game itself, but should give you an idea of what to expect! (e.g., everyone acting very very silly).

Iβm available for freelance game writing and narrative design work!
Short or long assignments, as well as one-off consultancy meetings.
Iβve worked on critically-acclaimed, award-nominated games and can be your dialogue doctor, plot sounding board or handle voice acting from script to recording!
Actually thatβs not fair to squatters.
Iβm fairly confident squatters donβt have a bookcase specifically for their teapot collection, or collaborate with the neighbours on a wildlife border in the back garden.
Their latest email suggests that, as they didnβt fix the washing machine and I claim that broke the contract, me staying in the house paying rent made me a squatter.
Which is hilarious if you could see how nice I keep the place, but also why would you try to get a squatter to pay a rent rise?
βWhich part of me living in your dreadful property, making money from doing funny voices suggests that I have a life to ruin?β
My landlord: oooo if we have to take you to court then itβll badly affect your ability to rent and work in the future!!!
Me: I am an actor. I already ruined my own life, ta.
Right?!
Itβs actually FEWER MisΓ©rables
