🚀Launching my product design portfolio today and available for an exciting new challenge!

A 7+ years journey of product design, from bootstrapped startups🍕to multi-billion unicorns🦄.

A thread 🧵on my journey:

Real design outcome was the friends you made along the way

[Indie Game Joe @IndieGameJoe]

This solo indie dev spent 10 years making an RPG game that looks 3D… but is actually 2D.

- Camera shifts from orthographic to perspective views
- Depth is simulated using parallax & warped sprites
- Hand-painted semi-open world

Would you play this? It’s called Bridgebourn.

@NaviKRStan Forget about the VFX, the AI direction is pretty bad, the creature design also looks like more inspired by western design than creating something original.

[Aditya Narayan @crabsbeard]

@Matarawi_Film Went through the discussion :)

Today, we're introducing Spectre I, the first smart device to stop unwanted audio recordings.

We live in a world of always-on listening devices.

Smart devices and AI dominate our world in business and private conversations.

With Deveillance, you will @be_inaudible.

I was watching this video from @polyfjord yesterday and I was completely blown away by Cycles' improvements using DLSS.

This isn't just an incremental improvement, this is a paradigm shift, the benchmark scenes literally ran like they were rendered in EEVEE.

I am absolutely speechless, watching the video I felt butterflies in my stomach, maybe you think I'm being dramatic but growing up with the dream of real-time raytracing, rendering scenes on a shitty laptop for whole nights as a kid and then seeing this?

It's really something...

AI tools want to make everyone an artist. We'd rather make artists dangerous.

@rive_app's AI agent gives you the power to build things you couldn't before. Your own tools. Custom particle systems. Cloners. Path effects. Data connections. Full games.

[Aditya Narayan @crabsbeard]

@AristideBenoist So smooth and snappy!

[Aditya Narayan @crabsbeard]

Amazing work!

[Jim Raptis @d__raptis]

Spent 10 minutes just clicking around this portfolio.

The hover states. The click animation. The scroll effects & illustrations. Everything is simply beautiful.

Pure craft.

@chalaska While I agree the current design trend in Indian streets uses many colors and information together, but this is a result of digital print transformation that happened decades ago.

The designs that used to be prevalent before that in India were clear hand drawn typography.

@catsareblessing You can see the watermark being removed in the video

@creato_o @MichaelG_3D Thank you!

@hr_unhinged Amount of people not realising it is satire is alarming
