Started to read 'question' as 'quest icon'

I want to read good documentation, but I don't want to write any.

Sometimes, no matter which way you look at it, 950 is bigger than 400.

I didn't want it to be true, but it is. And it's time for me to face it.

[Dominic Curry @domcurrydev]

I don't see my name! How do I know if I'm in the games industry?!

[Dominic Curry @domcurrydev]

I think it's pretty distressing that whenever someone comes forward with burnout, the response is invariably "when it happened to me...".

It reinforces the view that it's to be expected and it's something that you have to go through to know how you can avoid it yourself.

@jackfrsmith @digibawb @valentin_galea Really I just did what @digibawb told me. It's worked for 4 years so if it ain't broke...

Splash Damage are looking to hire an Online Programmer.

[Dominic Curry @domcurrydev]

This is the darkest timeline.

[Splash Damage @splashdamage]

We're celebrating #Movember and #InternationalMensDay this year by asking some of our staff an... awkward (but important) question.

[Gordon Biggans @digibawb]

Come work with me! I have lots of things I can teach you 🙂

No previous OS experience required; we work as the bridge between web services and game teams such as UI & gameplay.
