Checked social medis for the first time ina few days. Fucking hell 😂😂😂

Tissuegate
Seashellgate
Qatar Force One
Putin dodging his own peace summit

Meltdowns everywhere. Think I’ll just listen to some Springsteen….

@threejs Hadn’t thought of that, but good point. 👍

From the offset I simply assumed everyone would want their scores saveg, but there’s no reason I couldn’t have standard version

FLIPGRID LAUNCH 🔥 👌

Excited to (finally) release my new puzzle game... think ‘Candy Crush’ meets a ‘Rubiks Cube’ - all made purely with web-tach, built on ThreeJS

"We've noticed issues with your website"... new year, same-old web agency cold-marketing campaigns. A client forwarded me an agency's sales pitch. Turns out their website performs worse than the one I built for my client. 🧵

[Peter Hinton @peterhinton]

The web world evolves constantly. Yes, websites need ongoing optimization. But regarding architecture, my client's site is solid. These automated "audit reports" are just sales tactics.

So I designed a ‘specials’ menu with my faves from the three, keeping true to the album art.

For the first time in a long time, I designed something for no reason – a welcome little change-up.

@QuinnXCII is never far from my playlist, and this year he dropped a three-part EP series; Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner.

@elonmusk @xai It's because the marketing is even more onerous than making the actual game sadly.

Games made by indie devs & teams who actually give a shit about the game they're creating get edged out.

Oh, Tripleopolis is out now on iOS and Android https://t.co/IWLGWhebDE 👌👍

[Peter Hinton @peterhinton]

I’ve found the time (finally) to add a new level, ‘Crumbling Camelot’ on Tripleopolis.

Your favourite match 3 puzzle/strategy game is available on both iOS and Android https://t.co/acs5laetTu

‘Castle Ruins’, a temporary name of the new level design for my game Tripleopolis. Any suggestions (2-3 words)

I started Huntee over 4 years ago to provide something something that wasn't commercial, or steered by local authorities, but simply something fun, different, and hopefully make people feel more connected with the world around them. - https://t.co/cnE0o0IqYj

A daft little game app/webapp I made for my daughter to make her spelling and reading homework less of a battle 🤣 #webapp #app #parenting #homework

@SGosneyHughes @RadioAnnaM @GaryAPhilipson 3+ years is admittedly impressive commitment to what I now refer to as 'whitetexting'.

The guy did end up going to prison (unrelated), so there's that.

[Peter Hinton @peterhinton]

@RadioAnnaM @GaryAPhilipson @SGosneyHughes not sure why, but this thread reminded me of that

[Peter Hinton @peterhinton]

@RadioAnnaM @GaryAPhilipson @SGosneyHughes A guy I used to work with told me on his leaving day that he'd insulted me at the end of every email for 3 years but set the text to white... in such a smug way, like 3 years of invisible insults was some kinda victory 😂🤷‍♂️

September newsletter, fashionably late (videos, right? 🙃). Dive into content ownership strategies, the Tripleopolis launch, and my bittersweet Middlesbrough FC crest experience.

As a lifelong Boro fan, losing in finals is something I'm conditioned to (if you know, you know)... but in business too it's all part of the game.

While I didn't win, making it to the final round was a proud moment. #designer #design #branding #logo #utb

[Peter Hinton @peterhinton]

I've had to step a little out of my comfort zone recently, having just completed the third round of a pitch/presentation for an exciting opportunity.

As part of the process I've had a chance to look back on some of my projects over the last few years #illustration #teesside #utb
