I’m very proud and excited to share that I’ve joined up with the Autistica Play ambassadors group at the wonderful charity @Autistica

As a parent of an Autistic child this is a cause close to my heart, so please do get in touch if you'd like to chat

[Sam Faulkner @SamFaulkner87]

Industry Friends - I’ve been taking a short hiatus since March, but I am now back on the market and have full availability until at least mid-September. If you need help or consultancy on anything Publishing-related, including PR, Marketing, and Project Management, get in touch!

"We will all forever have a Jim-shaped hole in our lives"—Larian staff remember Baldur's Gate 3 cinematic animation lead Jim Southworth, who died this month after being diagnosed with cancer at the end of 2022. https://t.co/zmYezN8lje

[Sam Faulkner @SamFaulkner87]

Absolutely gutted to hear this. Jim was one of a kind, a great laugh, and made me feel like I belonged in the room from day one. He's a big part of some of my fondest memories in this business, and I learned a lot from him, RIP

[Larian Studios @larianstudios]

We are sad to announce the passing of Jim Southworth, our Cinematic Animation lead.

Jim cared deeply about his team, and the results shone through in their work. He loved making games, and we loved making them with him. We're all going to miss him.

@svhorrocks Yeah this is bringing back some memories. I just walked past that pizza place and I swear they looked at me with a mix of recognition and horror

[Sam Faulkner @SamFaulkner87]

I have come here to meet indies and to process receipts...and I'm all outta receipts

[Sam Faulkner @SamFaulkner87]

@deanmoulder @WarChildUK Thanks mate! 50km, and my time was ~5hrs 5mins (there was a bit of an error along the route so a bunch of us ended up doing 51km!)

I came 18th in my category, that was ~30mins faster than I expected!

[Sam Faulkner @SamFaulkner87]

I did it! I feel absolutely broken today but that’s my first Ultramarathon in the bag!

There’s still time to sponsor me, and @WarChildUK will be grateful for every extra penny

Cheers everyone
