            1. i've got news: i quit my job! today is my last day at Niantic! i missed making things myself and releasing them quickly, so... that's what i'm going to do. until my savings start to look a bit scary.

            i had a great time at Niantic and made some cool things that are still not released and i can't talk about in too much detail. i know so much more about building with AR and designing F2P games now.

          what now? i'm going to make creative tools. the feeling i get when i see a cool bot someone has made with CBDQ - "that's great, and i would never have thought to make that, and yet i made it possible for you to make that" - that's what i'm chasing.

        starting with doing some long-neglected maintenance of Cheap Bots, Done Quick! i'm gonna make it more reliable, make it clearer to use, and finally add alt-text support. also make it easier to block spam accounts on there, but that's kind of boring to people who aren't me.

      the big thing i have planned is a tool for quickly and easily making little games on your phone. without needing to know how to code, or dealing with people trying to teach you how. more on that soon, i hope!

    and i am relaunching my Patreon! if you would like to support me, if you would like me to make CBDQ and tools like it rather than get another job, then i would be very grateful for your support: patreon.com/v21

        i'm also available for consulting or small bits of work. i have thought a lot about games in the real world, AR, procedural generation and, of course, creative tools. i know how technical things are made (and can make them), but i mainly care about how people will use them.

          and finally... let's have a chat? if this sounds exciting to you, get in touch, let's schedule a call (or meet in person!) i'm excited to be part of a larger creative community again. i want to hear about your cool stuff!

            so. that's my big thread. i'm excited! excited and a bit scared. i'm looking forward to seeing what i make!
