Hi all, Some of you already know, but I just wanted to share a quick update as a few of you have messaged to check in. My little boy had to go in for surgery recently, which has meant I’ve been a bit quieter than usual and not as active on socials. All went well and he’s recovering nicely. That’s the main thing. Really appreciate those of you who reached out. It doesn’t go unnoticed. And apologies to those who I’ve not managed to speak to in recent weeks! Normal service will resume very soon 👊 Darren

What do you do when you have a mystery bump on your dominant wrist (I'm sure I have a ganglion cyst and I'm left-handed), and you have concept art to work on with no compression glove? Toeless compression sock.

Some stories don’t hinge on twists or spectacle. They hinge on the moment after the journey, when the searching finally stops. I’m drawn to narratives where emotion is carried through restraint: stillness as payoff, proximity as confession, silence as trust in the audience. It’s the same philosophy I bring to character-driven storytelling and narrative design. Let the player feel the history before they understand it. Let meaning surface slowly, like memory. P.S. Yes, I drew this! I use Procreate, and used watercolors.

My updated draft concept for Callum’s ruined throne room. I still couldn’t decide on which design I liked best, so I sketched them both. I might end up combining them together.

Tell me what games your looking forward to ? :D for me its going to be final fantasy remake part 3. I heard its closer then we think from a rumour and im so excited. The part 1 remake will always be my favourite game of all time ! I have never smiled ear to ear playing a game all the way through as I did that.
