I've peaked. ♟️

I don't want to keep beating a dead horse with this merchandise topic, but I really need to air some of this out. We contracted two different teams to build concepts and production-ready files so we could move into sampling. Both have completely failed so far. One of the design agencies (a very reputable group) charged $3,000, which we paid, for three rounds of mockups and fully completed production files/tech packs. After two rounds of failed mockups, I sent a much more comprehensive brief to try to get them on the right track. They just emailed me back saying they decided to drop the project and wished me the best of luck. No mention of a refund. No mention of any kind of resolution. They are leaving us with a completely unusable PDF of designs at this level of quality. What am I even looking at!?

We did the thing! I'll be sharing some fully transparent thoughts on the event and where we want to go from here. Can't thank you enough for watching, hanging out in chat, and enjoying the games with us. Talk soon. 😉

Let's see what all the hype is about. I genuinely want to level myself up in several ways this year. Let’s make tomorrow the start. @JamesClear, show me what you got. 👊

Like riding a bike. 🚴‍♂️ Really fun to hop back into StarCraft II and climb my way up after not playing for years. I’ll always love this game.

This was the most I’ve enjoyed working on a Small Talk article so far. These designs get me really excited for what is possible with @STR8RIPPIN. Take a look and let me know what you think! 🔗 xitter.cf/small/status/201043438…

Production agreements for @STR8RIPPIN's first show day were just signed. I'll be posting another article later today with a little more information. We are cooking. 🧑‍🍳
