@IWDominate I genuinely curious as to why 100t would draft like this. It makes no sense to me. I wasn’t expecting them to win but I definitely wanted them to put up a decent fight and then they draft this comp.

@PlatinumTinder @MonteCristo Needs to happen!

Clouds gently move now! Plus added an outline shader for some jittering.

Built a 'Desktop Candle' interface - illuminates around the cursor while dimming the rest of the screen. Perfect for distraction-free reading.

@TeamSamoyed So excited for the next game! Will you guys work on a fearless draft rule? Something I love from Motorsport manager is being able to vote on upcoming rules. Would be a great way to diversify the game. Maybe rules can be voted on every 2-3yrs.

@noahnewline Thank you for putting out such an amazing game <3

[Randolph Wiafe @madmandrit]

@KenneyNL Thank you for everything you do for this community. I wouldn’t be anywhere without your work.

You are making dreams come true.

@Cheddarbear16 Best move ever lol

[Randolph Wiafe @madmandrit]

@Cheddarbear16 what’s your thoughts on Stormgate so far?

[Randolph Wiafe @madmandrit]

@CarlsenGames Huge props to the environmental, interaction, and sound design for this. I’m studying every aspect of this game and just keep unearthing more.

Tiny design detail: nested border radii look really funky if they're the same. To maintain the same curvature, the outer radius = inner radius + padding.

[Randolph Wiafe @madmandrit]

@EuropaGame Absolutely beautiful game! Enjoyed demo! The environmental storytelling is outstanding + the sound design is crisp!

What game engine are you using for this game?

[Randolph Wiafe @madmandrit]

@CarlsenGames This is an absolutely amazing experience you and your team have crafted. Lots to learn from design wise (on all fronts). Well done!

[Randolph Wiafe @madmandrit]

@MonteCristo Isn’t still working for EG and is on the board?

[Randolph Wiafe @madmandrit]

@dboskovic Sound design for my games is a core pillar for me! Outside of accessibility, the amount of emotion sound can generate is insane. It can communicate so much to a person. I think there are a lot of applications for it in Flatfile itself!

[Randolph Wiafe @madmandrit]

@lisamahapatra Well deserved! One of the most fabulous and inspiring colleagues I’ve ever worked with!

Big day at @flatfilers. Today we launched the Flatfile Data Exchange Platform — powerful data resolution tooling packaged into an infinitely extensible developer platform.

My two favorite parts of #FigmaConfig2023 were @bchesky's day 1 ending keynote...and the cute photobooths.
