Is threads the new digital marketing trend to watch out for? 
Social media marketing is the domain, and content creators are the kings, and each ticking second we have new players stepping in, a lot of them, since no one is a by-stander anymore. Every business organization, an MNC or a small up and coming startups. Every business is a brand. And every brand narrative needs a media platform. A new digital marketing trend is here.
Social media literacy is its zenith, and the peak no longer exists for virtually everyone—humans and humans—are on the screen. Mobile marketing is scaling new heights, and artificial intelligence is emerging and showing significant signs of dominance given the ChatGPT advent, but this also could lead to a phenomenon called the AI fatigue, where the content becomes overwhelming and people just scroll through or skip sections. We see the traces; surely you have scrolled through reels in the first couple seconds if it does not strike your fancies, and as Deluze coined, its all a copy of a copy of a copy. Originality lacks, hence humans shall never be obsolete, and this can be attested if one takes a look at the quick growth of threads. 
Threads is the favourite darling child of all content creators, with new features coming out each day, perhaps, even as we speak; customized feeds, trending topics, they also list out algorithm trending topics yet you have the space to customize and the freedom of feed curation. It does look like a feasible competitor to X and the fact that it is close to amassing a billion users speaks for itself. Independent content creators are in throngs and looks like businesses are also throbbing in. it’s a great tool to start discussions and propose ideas or opinions – a great way for audience engagement; it focuses on text only content, and that works as a great antidote for the AI Fatigue we were talking about earlier, since it allots a much needed break from video content. Speculations are rife that they might soon begin monetizing via ads and this development shows us why threads could be the next big trend in digital marketing. 
So hop on and reap the benefits.

Summer 2025 Game Development Student Internship Roundup, Part 1
Internship recruiting season has begun for some large game publishers and developers. This means that a number of internship opportunities for summer 2025 have been posted and will be collecting applicants. Internships are a great way to earn some experience in a professional environment and to get mentorship from those of us in the trenches. If you're a student and you have an interest in game development as a career, you should absolutely look into these.
If you know of any game development internships that aren't listed here, please tell me! I'll try to collect another batch when EA posts theirs as a follow-up.

At time of writing, Electronic Arts was performing maintenance on their recruiting site and should have new openings posted on November 12th 2024. I'll do a second round of internship opportunities once they post, along with Ubisoft and any others I missed.
Brush up your resume and focus on any game dev work you've done. Amateur game dev work counts! Tabletop game mastering counts! Amateur board and card game design counts! Making your own CCG fan sets or draft cube counts! Game jam work counts! These make a bigger difference when it comes to hiring than most other kinds of work experience.
If you need assistance with your resume/CV, cover letter, or have other questions, join our discord and ask. The server is full of experienced developers who can help review your materials and give you suggestions. I also suggest taking a look at my Game Career FAQ. There's a lot of answers in there already. Best of luck out there.

Below the cut is our extensive FAQ! If you have a question, check here first!
Tumblr media
How long has PawBorough been in development?
PawBorough has been in development since the summer of 2021.
When will PawBorough be playable?
PawBorough will enter closed Beta for Kickstarter backers in late 2024. Open Beta will proceed to allow entry of non-backer users afterwards. Our current timeline projects an extended period of open Beta for new users to join in late 2024 or early 2025, depending on how many features need tweaking and to what extent. We currently estimate full launch in 2025.
Will PawBorough be free to play? Yes. PawBorough will have premium features, but will not be “pay to play.” 
Where do I download PawBorough?
PawBorough is a browser game with no need for download. However, we are working on an application for mobile devices which will be available to download in the future. There is not currently a timeline for this development. 
Will PawBorough be mobile friendly?
Yes. We are dedicated to mobile usability. Our development of an application is intended to enhance the mobile experience. 
Will you have a suggestions page?
Once we have the game refined and populated, we will be opening a forum for suggestions to improve the user experience. 
Is PawBorough accepting artist applications?
Currently PawBorough is accepting artist applications. If you would like to work as a visual artist on The PawBorough Team, please send your resume and portfolio to [email protected]
Is PawBorough accepting developer applications?
PawBorough is not in need of developers at this time. 
Can I volunteer for PawBorough work?
For the majority of work, we do not accept volunteer applications. We periodically open volunteer applications for early feature testing. For notifications on when these applications open, keep up with our Kickstarter updates!
What timezone will PawBorough be in? 
PawBorough will function in EST/ET! 
How can I reach out directly to the team?
Please email us at [email protected]. All other methods to contact us may not reach us. 
Will you keep the official Discord open after the full launch of PawBorough?
No. After PawBorough launches officially, we will be shutting down our Discord. It is not in our best interest to rely on third party software for communication with our community. Already, this is an issue we take responsibility for perpetuating. We want to ensure all information is sourced to and on our website in a single space. Players are welcome to create their own, unofficial spaces however! 
How can I support the development of PawBorough right now?
We take donations from our PayPal. All donations will go towards our continued development.  You can also support us by spreading the word! Tell your friends about our project, keep informed on our updates, and join the site when we’re live!
Will you have dark mode?
Yes. 
Tumblr media
Will there be more breeds/patterns?
PawBorough will continue to add more content over the span of its lifetime.  We have currently committed to 21 breeds in total, but new patterns may be added in perpetuity as the game ages. 
Can cats die? Is there a way to remove them from the game?
Cats do not die from play. The only way to remove a cat from the game is to voluntarily retire the cat. 
What are mystic and domestic breeds? 
PawBorough features seven Boroughs that a player may join. A Borough is a culturally unique location in the world of the game. Each Borough has at least two breeds of origin: a domestic breed and a mystic breed. These breeds come in “pairs.” For every domestic cat, there is a mystical, magical counterpart. We call these pairs an “origin set” or “origin pair.”  In lore, this is explained as normal cat breeds being magically, genetically altered over hundreds of years. As a player, you will be able to switch between mystic and domestic breeds instantly. 
What are the mystic and domestic pairs? What are the origin Boroughs of every breed?
Here are all origin pairs that we have showcased in updates thus far.  Shorthair / Bovine = Harvest Prowler / Thumper = Harvest Ragdoll / Fyret = The Metropolis Longhair / Moontail = Luna Snowfoot / Prancer = Sol Wolf / ??? = Cogwheel Littlefang / Stonehide = ???
Can Domestic Breeds be turned into Mystic Breeds (and vice versa)?
Yes. Here is a graphic of the system we are testing, which incorporates Borough origin: 
Tumblr media
Why not just have separate items for every breed? Why the pairs?
This choice was intended to unilaterally flatten the rarity between mystic and domestic breeds, and instead determine rarity by origin set. With an item for every breed, seeding the items would inevitably become imbalanced in some way. This way, Shorthair and Bovines, for example, are equal opportunity for the player.  We did not want to, as a game, incentivize collecting mystic breeds over domestic breeds, thus viewing domestic breeds as a contextually “lesser” option. That has just never been our vision! 
Will some Breeds/Patterns/Colors be more rare than others?
Yes.  Breed rarity will be dependent on the origin pair. Bovines and Shorthairs may be more common than Longhairs and Moontails, for example.  Patterns will have breed and drop rarity.  Colors will be dependent on breeding outcomes. You may use our live kit predictor on our website to view how two colors interact. A brief write-up on how color outcomes for kits are calculated is located here!
How much can you customize your two Founder cats?
You will be able to fully customize the colors and sex of your Founders. You will also be able to select from a pre-selected pool of patterns and breeds, which will be changeable for all cats via items. We are currently working on adding the ability to fully customize white coverage for Founders. The only thing you will not be able to change is the Borough birthplace (eye color.)  We are also considering adding the ability to freely re-access the creator and change your founders at any time. As a general note, your Founders will be incredibly customizable! 
Will kits be able to wear accessories?
Yes! We love that we can do this! This does mean our accessory pool will be more limited. However, kits will be fully customizable!
How will players obtain "Generation 1" cats?
Generation 1 cats are cats which are not born from cats already on the site (i.e “offspring.”) There are several methods to obtain a generation 1 cat, however most notably an item called “incense” can be used to immediately spawn a random generation 1 cat into your camp.  Each Borough will have an incense item which spawns a cat with the eyes of said Borough.  Incense is obtained via crafting. 
Will new colors be added to the demo?
Currently, there are no plans to add new colors, but this possibility is not off the table. 
Will you have feathers behind the ear as an accessory?
No. We are aware that, historically, media with anthropomorphized cats has a history of anti-indigenous themes.  In the interest of respecting indigenous populations, we will not be illustrating any feather-themed accessories without indigenous sensitivity consultation.
Will I be able to attach tags to my cats? Such as #kit?
Yes, we will be implementing a tagging system! 
Will multiple cats be able to have the same species of Fauna companion?
Yes! 
Will there be a way to make my cat stay as a kit forever?
Yes. We will be adding perma-kits as a feature. 
Can you add a nonbinary/third gender pose to the cats?
We would love to, but we’re a small indie team with limited resources. Three poses with full accessory and pattern functionality is already quite a bit of effort for us, especially with the demand of the art style we are committed to!  However, we consider the Mars and Venus poses to be, for all intents and purposes, genderless. The purpose of two adult poses is simply to explore the designs. You will be able to switch between both adult poses at any time via a switch on the cat’s customize page. 
Will there be a pronouns section for a cat's page?
We were asked to add this feature quite a bit, and we did add it! We are currently testing a system which may allow custom pronouns (such as neopronouns) that the game will recognize and use in narration and dialogue. This will help aid our initial reservation to the concept. 
Will there be a way to change a cat's eye type?
Yes, and eye palette too! The only thing you cannot change is the birth Borough (Borough eye color.)
What's the difference between an Accessory and Decor item?
Accessories are pieces of clothing tailored to layer on each cat pose. They cannot be moved from where they sit on the cat. They can only be shifted above or below other Accessories layered onto the cat.  In comparison, Decor items are items which can be shifted, rotated, and resized around the cat. Decor and Backdrop items come together to create a scene! 
Can we change a cat's birth Borough/eye color?
No.  
To what extent will you feature violence or adult content?
PawBorough is for teens and older. Users must be 13 and up to play. This means that we will feature minor use of moderately strong language, mentions of alcohol, and the allowance of art with cartoon blood and violence.  However, photorealistic blood or gore will not be allowed, and we allow absolutely no sexually suggestive content whatsoever. 
Will you have a custom system? How will it work?
This question refers to the concept of allowing custom, user-uploaded art to be created into items and imposed over a cat.  Yes, we will have a system for this. Our custom cat items are called “pelts.”  “Unclipped pelts” will allow for users to draw over the lines of the cat.  “Clipped pelts” will go under the lines of a cat, and be easier to work with Accessories.  Both will be a premium feature, and come with limitations and restrictions to help maintain the visual identity of the game. We will also be implementing a less complex pelt system for Fauna! 
Will you have breeds that resemble big cats?
We will not be featuring any breeds from the Panthera order. This includes lions, jaguars, leopards, tigers, and snow leopards. We also will not be adding cheetahs, due to their cultural association with big cats. In the lore of PawBorough, big cats (and cheetahs) are mythical depictions akin to humans imagining elves!  All other breeds from the Felidae family are on the table. This does include wildcats. 
Will you add more white coverage possibilities?
Uncertain at this time. The idea is on the table, however we’re currently focused on illustrating for all the planned breeds! 
Do you have a “basic” pattern?
No. We do have a pattern called “solid” that may aesthetically resemble a more basic patterning, but we do not have a base-level pattern that users build up from. Instead, all patterns have some degree of rarity and detail. 
Is there a way to change a cat's colors?
Yes. Users will have access to items which randomize a single cat’s colors. 
Can I rename my cats?
Yes! Much like changing the pose, renaming a cat is able to be done anytime via the customization page. 
How will line breaking accents be handled? Won't they clash with apparel?
For those who are unaware, PawBorough features accent genes which may break the silhouette.  The answer to this is: yes, they will! We deliberated over this for some time. However, we are treating line-breaking accents much like other accessories. It will be on the onus of the player to prevent clipping with any other accessories, just as accessories can and will clip with one another.  Line breaking accents will be layerable among accessories, so users can adjust the layering how they like.  From a design standpoint, line-breaking accents will only include biological body modifications. This includes, but is not limited to, horns, teeth, scales, claws, fur, and anything else which would grow from the cat itself. This therefore excludes these attributes from accessories.  Overgrowth is an exception to this rule, due to its inception before the restriction was in place. In lore, Overgrowth is explained as a benign, parasitic, magic-touched plant which lives in cat fur and is easily passed to children of infected parents while nesting. 
Can accents be in any slot? Can I have the same accent in both slots?
All accent genes can be in either slot! However, you may not have the same accent in both slots. Both slots are able to lack an accent at the same time, however. 
What are the default patterns and breeds I can pick for my Founders?
You may create your Founders starting with: Solid Tiger Tuxedo Blotches This list is subject to change. No accent genes will be available for Founders to start with. 
Tumblr media
How does breeding work?
Breeding is available between two compatible cats. Users will choose to start a nest with two cats. Users will then babysit the nest until the new kits are ready to enter the User’s camp. Kits will inherit colors and patterns based on the parents. Testing of this mechanic is available on our website!
Can players cancel unwanted nests? Is it possible to accidentally lose a nest?
Nests can be reversed via a Bitter Root item. This is an active choice that the player must click several times to confirm.  Otherwise, nests remain until the player interacts with them and do not expire. 
Can Domestic and Mystic Breeds produce offspring?
Yes! All cats can breed with one another. 
How will Paw Borough prevent inbreeding regarding the cats?
Currently, cats which are related via 5 generations apart cannot breed together. 
Will cats ever be too old to breed?
We have no intention for a feature like this at this time. 
Can cats have multiple mates?
Yes. 
How does white coverage work for breeding?
Random coverage spots are chosen for each kit, with dominant spots passed down and recessive spots having a lower chance of showing. The coverage amount is chosen via the algorithm below. none x none => 90% none, 10% low full x none => 5% full, 10% high, 50% medium, 20% low, 5% none full x full => 90% full, 10% high full x medium => 50% full, 10% high, 40% medium full x high => 90% full, 10% high full x low => 25% full, 25% high, 25% medium, 25% small medium x medium => 5% full, 10% high, 50% medium, 20% low, 5% chance of none high x high => 15% full, 20% medium, 65% high, 10% low high x none => 30% none, 30% high, 25% medium, 15% small high x medium => 10% full, 10% small, 40% high, 40% medium high x low => 60% small, 20% medium, 20% high
How many cats are in a litter?
This is subject to change, but a cat can have between 1-4 kits in a single litter. 
Can I breed my cats to have different eye colors than my borough?
Yes. 
Can I breed my cats with other users?
Yes! We have a system for cross-account nests which will allow two users to both care for a nest and then divide the kits. 
Tumblr media
Is there a cap on how much regular currency a player can obtain every day?
There will likely be a cap, but questions like these have become difficult to give concrete answers on until we can simulate the economy in closed Beta!
Will there be events during the game?
Yes! PawBorough will have an onsite story which will be told through events, in addition to holiday events which will give users seasonal item rotations. 
If I miss story events, how can I catch up?
All real-time story events will be documented in an onsite archive which users can visit and read at any time. Campaign events which surround Guild play will be re-playable, which new users can play at any time. 
Will the game have achievements?
Yes. PawBorough will feature a badge and reward system. 
Will there be side/minigames?
At this time, we are focused on a closed gameplay loop which is fun, satisfying, and rewarding without the need for an abundance of generalized minigame designs. We may incorporate unique, one-off minigames for immersion in the future. But it is our hope that they won’t be necessary for an enjoyable game. We would much rather focus our resources towards buffing out the gameplay loop, and accommodating several play styles with it! 
Are there any plans for a battling system for cats?
Yes! PawBorough will feature teams which may register at the Guild. Users will be able to go on missions with their cats and earn rewards, leveling up their team and earning exclusive items in the process. What stats does a cat have? What are they used for?
Cats feature seven statistics: Stamina, Strength, Sense, Smarts, Speed, Savvy, and Sorcery.  A cat's base stat number is divided among these categories. Leveling a cat up will allow the player to build out any given statistical category. Statistics are used for different dynamics in combat (mele, range, healing, dodging, etc.) as well as helping to calculate different daily item yields. Cats can be leveled up both by participating in Guild play and by yielding items.  Each cat also has a Fortune and Doom statistic, which affects good luck and bad luck in RNG and general combat. These two stats cannot be changed. 
Are base stats completely randomized?
Yes, but there is a cap and a weighted bell curve. All Founders start with the same base stat. 
Can I read official lore of the game?
As of right now, we are working on an updated lore page with a more interactive presentation and more meat than our previous iteration. We will notify all social media when we have a new page live. 
How will recolors of accessories work?
PawBorough features a dye system. All items will come in 12 standard colors and may be dyed to any of the 12 colors. Dyes are obtained via crafting.  “Special dyes,” as they are currently called, will feature more unique coloring from the standard item, such as holographic, polka-dot, or pastel. Special dyes will only be applicable to certain compatible items. (And in all cases, a special dye will only work on an item that the standard doesn’t already apply to. For example, if a shirt is polka-dot by default, there is no reason for the shirt to be compatible with the polka-dot special dye.) 
Tumblr media
Can I be an Alpha tester? Is Alpha open? 
Alpha applications are available here. If this form is closed, it means applications are no longer accepted.  Alpha is not open as of June 12th, 2024. We will keep active communication and announce when Alpha opens. Applicants who are chosen will receive emails with the appropriate steps. 
If I am chosen as an alpha tester, do I have to sign an NDA?
No. 
How will data wipes happen during the closed Beta?
For context, a data wipe consists of removal of all cats, items, currency, and user content.  A data wipe will NOT wipe the following:  Your account, including your username, credentials, and ID number.  Credit for any money previously spent on your account.  Closed Beta will feature at least one data wipe as the test comes to a close. However, closed Beta will feature as many data wipes as we the developers deem necessary for testing important game dynamics. As an example, we need to test economic balance, and will wipe as necessary to test new pricing and currency distribution. 
Is there a limit to how many Beta Testers there will be?
Closed Beta is limited to the number of Beta Keys sold on our Kickstarter. Population reports put this number at over 1600 keys. 
How much earlier do Early Bird tier codes get into the closed Beta?
Early bird codes allow 3 days of early access! 
Will Luna Stones be tradeable or will they be locked to your account?
All Kickstarter items will be tradeable. 
Are Moontail wings randomly chosen when using a Luna Stone on a cat? What about when you breed a Moontail?
Wing types are random when using a Luna Stone. To change a Moontail’s wing type, an item will be easily available. When breeding, the wing type of the parent will pass down. 
I am a backer. How will I receive my Kickstarter rewards?
With the email you used to back, you will be emailed a code for your beta key(s) and a reward code which will be redeemable onsite for your tier rewards/add-ons. Can I still pledge to the Kickstarter?
No. 
Are the Kickstarter items obtainable since the campaign ended?
No, and yes. We will not be distributing these items again. They are retired. However, when the site is live, you may trade with backers for Kickstarter items. 
Will I lose my Kickstarter rewards after a Beta wipe?
Any redeemable item codes will become redeemable again after a data wipe. 
Account 
Can two or more people share an account?
No. We limit the game to one account per user. If you are caught sharing your account with another person, you may have your account frozen. All items you may lose by choosing to share your account are at your own risk. 
Can system members have individual accounts?
When we say one account per User, we mean User. This means that systems with individual users may have separate accounts. However, any evidence of “funneling,” daily yield transfer, or frequent and egregious transfer of cats or resources which would give a User identifiable advantage over other Users will result in consequences, including but not limited to removal of the aforementioned resources and termination of one or both accounts. 
Can you change your Borough after choosing one at signup?
Yes! 
Can you change your username? Will multiple people be allowed to have the same username?
Your username will be changeable. No two accounts may share a username. 
Am I allowed to have a "side" account?
Accounts are limited to one per user. Evidence of frequent cross-account trading which implies the existence of a side account will result in investigation and consequence. 
What is the character limit on usernames?
18. It is the same for cat names. 
Will I get my account banned if a housemate and I both play PawBorough, and you recognize the same IP address?
No. In fact, we are rather lenient and understanding of this. We only will take administrative action if the cross-account activity is egregiously imbalanced and rewards one player with a clear, identifiable advantage over other players. 
Can players terminate their own account?
Yes. 
How many accounts will be reserved for staff use?
The first 10 account IDs will be reserved for staff use. This number may be subject to change. 
Is there a referral system? Are there any rewards for referring people?
We are developing a referral system in tandem with our badge system. Our system will reward referring players with a payout every time their referee(s) completes an achievement and earns a badge. 
Tumblr media
Can I use a cat I made in PawBorough as an original character / purchase commissioned art of this character?
Yes, we love it! However, no content featuring our doll art may be used commercially. You may not profit off of our exact images. We also require that any public use of our art or designs be credited back to our website.
Can I use cats in offsite roleplay? Do I need to give credit? Can I go make my own story out of my PawBorough characters?
Yes. Credit requirement largely depends. If you use an image from the site, you must credit us. If you’re using a mystic design of ours, those creature designs are owned by us. We would prefer if you did not completely divorce them from our game and give us credit for the creature design. Under no circumstances may you use any mystic designs in commercial content.  However, we don’t own the concept of a generic cat character. If you create and name a domestic cat in our game, you’re welcome to take it elsewhere and do anything you damn well please with it! Again, so long as you credit any use of our images, and use none of our images commercially!  Also, for clarity, we don’t own the concept of moth cats or cow cats, but our specific design elements in tandem with the breed titles are attributed to us. You’re totally free to make a moth cat design for your own use! 
Are we allowed to trade art for beta keys with other users?
Yes.
Is offsite trading allowed?
For beta keys, yes, but at your own risk. Note that many games of our genre disallow cross-site trading with games in development, or altogether. We do not allow nor endorse disregarding the TOS of other games.  We are considering an embargo on cross-site trading of cats, items, and site currency both during Beta and for a brief initial launch period. This is to help preserve the microcosm of our onsite economy and grow it to a healthy, prosperous size before introducing the possibility of cross-site scalping. We hope you understand this decision. We’ll keep forefront communication with Users on these policies during the game’s lifespan. 
Can I sell my Kickstarter rewards for real-life currency?
No. This will never be allowed. 
Can I trade my Kickstarter rewards for digital or physical art?
Yes. Art as a traded good would not be counted under the cross-site embargo. If any cross-site content is included in conditions of the trade, it would be considered illegal. 
Will there be a safe way to exchange premium currency for regular currency with other players?
Two-step cross-account trading will be in place. Both players will have to approve a supposed trade before it will activate.

Bethesda Softworks will close Redfall developer Arkane Austin, Hi-Fi RUSH and The Evil Within developer Tango Gameworks, as well as Alpha Dog Games and Roundhouse Studios, according to a companywide email sent out by Microsoft Gaming president of game content and studios Matt Booty this morning.
Full email
Today I’m sharing changes we are making to our Bethesda and ZeniMax teams. These changes are grounded in prioritizing high-impact titles and further investing in Bethesda’s portfolio of blockbuster games and beloved worlds which you have nurtured over many decades.
To double down on these franchises and invest to build new ones requires us to look across the business to identify the opportunities that are best positioned for success. This reprioritization of titles and resources means a few teams will be realigned to others and that some of our colleagues will be leaving us.
Here are the changes going into effect:
Arkane Austin – This studio will close with some members of the team joining other studios to work on projects across Bethesda. Arkane Austin has a history of making impactful and innovative games and it is a pedigree that everyone should be proud of. Redfall‘s previous update will be its last as we end all development on the game. The game and its servers will remain online for players to enjoy and we will provide make-good offers to players who purchased the “Hero” downloadable content.
Alpha Dog Studios – This studio will also close. We appreciate the team’s creativity in bringing DOOM to new players. Mighty DOOM will be sunset on August 7 and we will be turning off the ability for players to make any purchases in the game.
Tango Gameworks – Tango Gameworks will also close. We are thankful for their contributions to Bethesda and players around the world. Hi-Fi RUSH will continue to be available to players on the platforms it is today.
Roundhouse Games – The team at Roundhouse Games will be joining ZeniMax Online Studios (ZOS). Roundhouse has played a key role in many of our recent game launches and bringing them into ZOS to work on The Elder Scrolls Online will mean we can do even more to grow the world that millions of players call home.
With this consolidation of our Bethesda studio teams, so that we can invest more deeply in our portfolio of games and new IP, a small number of roles across select Bethesda publishing and corporate teams will also be eliminated.
Those whose roles will be impacted will be notified today, and we ask that you please treat your departing colleagues with respect and compassion. We will provide our full support to those who are impacted in today’s notifications and through their transitions, including severance benefits informed by local laws.
These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things. I acknowledge that these changes are also disruptive to the various support teams across ZeniMax and Bethesda that bring our games to market. We are making these tough decisions to create capacity to increase investment in other parts of our portfolio and focus on our priority games.
Bethesda remains one of the key pillars of Xbox with a strong portfolio of amazing games and thriving communities. As we look to the future, there is an impressive line-up of games on the horizon. In 2024 alone we have Starfield “Shattered Space,” Fallout 76 “Skyline Valley,” Indiana Jones and The Great Circle, and The Elder Scrolls Online‘s “Golden Road.” As we align our plans and resources to best set ourselves up for success in this complex and changing industry, our teams across Arkane Lyon, Bethesda Game Studios, id Software, MachineGames, ZeniMax Online Studios, and the Bethesda publishing and corporate teams will be well-positioned to build new IP, explore new game concepts, and expand on our existing franchises.

How to Choose the Best Shopify Website Design Company for Your Store in 2025?
Tumblr media
In the ever-evolving world of eCommerce, having a well-designed and fully optimized Shopify store is no longer just an option – it's a necessity. As more consumers turn to online shopping, brands must ensure their Shopify website delivers an exceptional user experience, reflects the brand's identity, and supports seamless transactions. This is where a professional Shopify website design company can make all the difference.
Cross Atlantic Software, we understand that the decision to hire a Shopify website design company is a major step in your eCommerce journey. With so many service providers available, making the right choice can be overwhelming. This article aims to guide you through the most important factors to consider when selecting the right partner for your Shopify website design in 2025.
1. Understand Your Goals and Business Needs
Before you even begin searching for a Shopify website design company, clearly outline what you want your Shopify store to achieve. Are you launching a new brand, rebranding an existing one, or scaling up operations? Do you need custom integrations, advanced product filtering, or mobile-first Shopify design?
Having a clear vision will help you communicate effectively with potential design partners and ensure they align with your goals.
2. Look for Specialized Shopify Expertise
Not all web design companies specialize in Shopify. It's essential to choose a team that lives and breathes Shopify website design. Shopify has its own ecosystem, with unique themes, apps, and a proprietary Liquid coding language. Hiring a company that focuses specifically on Shopify design ensures they understand the platform inside-out.
Cross Atlantic Software has dedicated Shopify experts who have built and optimized hundreds of Shopify stores, giving clients the edge they need to compete in saturated markets.
3. Review Their Portfolio and Past Work
A reputable Shopify website design company should have a robust portfolio showcasing their past work. Look for:
Aesthetically pleasing, modern designs
Fast-loading Shopify websites
Mobile responsiveness
Seamless checkout experiences
Custom features like animations or personalized recommendations
Pay attention to diversity in their projects. This tells you whether the company can adapt their Shopify design to different industries and audiences.
4. Read Client Reviews and Testimonials
Real feedback from past clients is one of the most reliable ways to evaluate a Shopify website design company. Look beyond just the star ratings. Focus on detailed testimonials that highlight communication, professionalism, turnaround time, and post-launch support.
Cross Atlantic Software, we don’t just deliver projects — we build partnerships that grow with your business. Many of our clients have been with us for years, and we’re proud to be part of their ongoing success stories. Our testimonials reflect our commitment to excellence and custom-tailored Shopify website design solutions.
5. Ask About the Design and Development Process
Transparency is crucial. A reliable Shopify website design company should be able to walk you through their process from start to finish:
Initial Consultation
Strategy & Planning
Wireframing & Prototyping
Shopify Theme Customization or Custom Build
QA Testing & Optimization
Launch & Post-Launch Support
Knowing how your design team works isn’t just helpful — it’s essential. When everyone’s on the same page from day one, the process becomes smoother, timelines are clearer, and there are no last-minute surprises.
6. Consider Their Understanding of UX and Conversion Optimization
Good design isn't just about looking pretty. A successful Shopify website should convert visitors into buyers. That requires deep knowledge of user behavior, sales funnels, and design psychology.
Choose a Shopify website design company that prioritizes:
Clear CTAs (Call to Action)
Simple navigation
Fast page load times
Engaging product pages
Mobile-first design
Cross Atlantic Software, our team fuses creative Shopify design with data-backed UX principles to help you maximize conversions and sales.
7. Evaluate Support and Maintenance Services
Your Shopify store needs continuous updates, improvements, and sometimes emergency fixes. Make sure your design partner offers ongoing support even after launch. Ask questions like:
Do they offer monthly maintenance packages?
How do they handle bugs or errors?
Will you have a go-to person to call when something breaks or when you need a quick update? A dedicated point of contact makes all the difference when time and clarity matter most.
Cross Atlantic Software offers flexible support plans to ensure your Shopify website stays up-to-date, secure, and optimized at all times.
8. Transparency in Pricing
Clear pricing is a mark of a trustworthy Shopify website design company. While it's tempting to go with the lowest quote, remember that quality design and development require expertise and time.
Request a detailed breakdown of costs, including design, development, apps, and post-launch services. A good partner will explain every line item and adjust to fit your budget where possible.
9. Look for Creative Collaboration, Not Just Execution
The best outcomes happen when the design company works with you as a creative partner rather than just following orders. You should feel heard, respected, and inspired during the design journey.
Cross Atlantic Software, we treat every client as a collaborator. Our team engages in regular brainstorming sessions and strategy calls to ensure your vision translates beautifully into a high-performing Shopify store.
10. Check If They Offer Additional Services
Many eCommerce businesses need more than just Shopify website design. Check if your prospective partner can also help with:
SEO Optimization
Email Marketing Integration
App Integrations
Product Photography
Social Media Integration
A company that offers a comprehensive solution can save you time, money, and the hassle of managing multiple vendors.
Cross Atlantic Software provides end-to-end services to make your Shopify store launch as seamless and impactful as possible.
Conslusion:
Choosing the best Shopify website design company in 2025 is about more than just good looks. It requires strategic thinking, technical expertise, and a collaborative approach.
With a trusted partner like Cross Atlantic Software, you can build a Shopify website that not only looks amazing but also drives growth and customer loyalty.
Whether you're just starting out or looking to level up your current Shopify design, now is the time to make the investment in a company that understands your vision and has the skills to make it real.

How to Build Software Projects for Beginners
Tumblr media
Building software projects is one of the best ways to learn programming and gain practical experience. Whether you want to enhance your resume or simply enjoy coding, starting your own project can be incredibly rewarding. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get started.
1. Choose Your Project Idea
Select a project that interests you and is appropriate for your skill level. Here are some ideas:
To-do list application
Personal blog or portfolio website
Weather app using a public API
Simple game (like Tic-Tac-Toe)
2. Define the Scope
Outline what features you want in your project. Start small and focus on the minimum viable product (MVP) — the simplest version of your idea that is still functional. You can always add more features later!
3. Choose the Right Tools and Technologies
Based on your project, choose the appropriate programming languages, frameworks, and tools:
Web Development: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, or Django
Mobile Development: Flutter, React Native, or native languages (Java/Kotlin for Android, Swift for iOS)
Game Development: Unity (C#), Godot (GDScript), or Pygame (Python)
4. Set Up Your Development Environment
Install the necessary software and tools:
Code editor (e.g., Visual Studio Code, Atom, or Sublime Text)
Version control (e.g., Git and GitHub for collaboration and backup)
Frameworks and libraries (install via package managers like npm, pip, or gems)
5. Break Down the Project into Tasks
Divide your project into smaller, manageable tasks. Create a to-do list or use project management tools like Trello or Asana to keep track of your progress.
6. Start Coding!
Begin with the core functionality of your project. Don’t worry about perfection at this stage. Focus on getting your code to work, and remember to:
Write clean, readable code
Test your code frequently
Commit your changes regularly using Git
7. Test and Debug
Once you have a working version, thoroughly test it. Look for bugs and fix any issues you encounter. Testing ensures your software functions correctly and provides a better user experience.
8. Seek Feedback
Share your project with friends, family, or online communities. Feedback can provide valuable insights and suggestions for improvement. Consider platforms like GitHub to showcase your work and get input from other developers.
9. Iterate and Improve
Based on feedback, make improvements and add new features. Software development is an iterative process, so don’t hesitate to refine your project continuously.
10. Document Your Work
Write documentation for your project. Include instructions on how to set it up, use it, and contribute. Good documentation helps others understand your project and can attract potential collaborators.
Conclusion
Building software projects is a fantastic way to learn and grow as a developer. Follow these steps, stay persistent, and enjoy the process. Remember, every project is a learning experience that will enhance your skills and confidence!

how did you get into game writing and VNs and such?? i did one freelance job a while back and loved it but since then its been so hard to get into the industry…. i keep getting rejected despite having writing experience/publication in other areas 😭
(omg I didn't realize I have a bunch of messages in my inbox oops) Unfortunately, my game industry work that pays the bills is mostly as QA director, for which we are contracted by other studios. I do writing for our own studio, but I tend to not pursue contract work for writing because I don't want the creative pressure. (Though I was spontaneously offered work on that by another studio recently, so who knows, maybe I'll cave XD) But I will tell you what I tell people who ask me how to get into the games industry. Sorry if you already know some of this, I can't tell from your profile how much experience you already have in the industry! >.< 1. Build a portfolio of game work. You can do this by participating in game jams, itch.io has tons of them running all the time. If you can find in-person game jams (such as the Global Game Jam), even better! They'll help you build connections. If you can show you have strong skills in branching narrative, that's a massive plus. (yeeeeah, this involves basically doing a lot of unpaid work in your free time. but hey, nobody else is getting paid for it either! game dev notoriously pays like shit anyway. XDDD as the joke goes, if we wanted to make money, we'd work in software dev.) 2. Go to where the game developers are. In person. I can't stress this enough. If you want work in the games industry, the best/easiest/quickest way to do it is to meet devs in person. Some people may argue this is not necessary and that you can find work online--in my opinion, those people are either very lucky or very hopeful. You can maybe find some work by hanging out in game dev spaces online, but from personal experience, every client our studio has EVER HAD was either someone we met in person or someone we were introduced to through someone we met in person. Every single one. Here's a list of ideas of places to meet developers: - IGDA meetups, see if there's a chapter in your area. (Or if there isn't and you have the time and ambition, maybe you could start one!) - Local non-IGDA dev groups, you can sometimes find these through Meetup or Facebook - If there are colleges in your area that offer game dev degrees, you could try asking their professors if they know of any local events - See if there are any local game studios in your area that would be able to point you toward the community. Game dev studios aren't just in big cities!! It's not necessarily comprehensive, but you can check out https://gamecompanies.com/map - Game conventions/expos such as PAX - Game developer conferences/events, such as GDC or language/engine-specific conferences such as PyCon (GDC is WAY more worth it than PAX, but extremely expensive. I don't advise going to either until you have a solid game plan of what you're looking for there. There are also organizations that are willing to sponsor people with less means and underrepresented perspectives to attend GDC, so make sure to investigate that!) (And if you do go to a major event like PAX or GDC, make sure to google the afterparties list) And final protip for attending any sort of in-person event: We don't use the word 'networking'. It is a cursed word. We are not networking. We're meeting new friends and like-minded creators. <3

Why Every Student Should Participate in a Hackathon
In today’s fast-paced digital world, the ability to solve problems creatively is just as important as technical skills. This is where a hackathon shines. Whether you're a developer, designer, or business-minded thinker, a hackathon gives you a unique platform to showcase your talent, build new skills, and contribute to innovative projects—often in just 48 hours.
If you're a student, participating in a hackathon might just be the smartest decision you can make for your personal and professional growth.
What is a Hackathon?
A hackathon is a collaborative event where teams work together intensively over a short period—usually one to three days—to build a project from scratch. While coding is a central part, modern hackathons welcome all kinds of talents: UI/UX designers, content creators, marketers, and product thinkers.
Hackathons often come with themes—like sustainability, mental health, AI, fintech, or social impact—which help guide participants to build projects around real-world challenges.
The Student Advantage: Why Join a Hackathon?
If you’re still in college or university, here are a few solid reasons to sign up for your first hackathon:
1. Learn by Doing
A hackathon is one of the best places to learn hands-on. You’ll get to apply classroom theories to real-world projects, often learning more in one weekend than in an entire semester. You’ll also pick up new tools, technologies, and frameworks on the go.
2. Build Your Resume and Portfolio
Participation in a hackathon instantly boosts your resume. Employers love to see initiative, teamwork, and problem-solving skills—all of which are demonstrated by joining a hackathon. If you create something impactful, it could even become a long-term project or startup idea.
3. Network with Industry Experts
Many hackathons feature mentors from top companies and industries. This is your chance to ask questions, get feedback, and even connect with potential recruiters. Some companies even hire interns or offer job interviews during or after the event.
4. Win Prizes and Scholarships
While not the main goal, many hackathons offer cash prizes, internships, tech gadgets, and free software licenses. Some also provide travel scholarships or job offers to outstanding teams.
5. Collaborate and Build Friendships
You’ll work closely with peers from different departments or even universities. Hackathons foster a spirit of teamwork and trust—and you may just walk away with lifelong friends or co-founders.
How to Prepare for Your First Hackathon
Pick your tools early: Whether it's Python, React, Figma, or Firebase, be comfortable with at least one or two tools.
Form a balanced team: Find people with different strengths—developers, designers, and storytellers.
Have a problem-first mindset: Instead of jumping into building, understand the user and the issue deeply.
Practice your pitch: Your idea might be amazing, but if you can’t explain it well in 2-3 minutes, judges may miss its value.
Stay open-minded: Hackathons are chaotic and dynamic. Be ready to learn, adapt, and pivot.
Choosing the Right Hackathon as a Student
There are thousands of hackathons held worldwide every year—on campuses, online, or hosted by organizations. Look for events that welcome beginners and provide mentorship. Sites like Devpost, MLH (Major League Hacking), HackerEarth, and local student communities are great places to start.
Also consider themed hackathons like:
Education hackathons for building student-focused tools
Green tech hackathons for solving climate problems
AI hackathons for machine learning enthusiasts
Conclusion
A hackathon is more than just an event—it’s an experience. It pushes your limits, grows your skills, and opens up new opportunities. As a student, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. So step out of the classroom and into the hackathon arena. You might just discover your next passion, your dream job, or the idea that changes the world.

Outsource software development is the practice of relinquishing software-related duties to outside singularities or organizations. Outsourcing is used by firms to acquire software services and products from outside firms that do not have direct employees or employees under contract to the business entity that is outsourcing.
Infect, the outsourcing market worldwide is projected to grow by 8.28% (2025-2029) resulting in a market volume of US$812.70bn in 2029. This model is highly versatile and suits businesses of all sizes.

This efficiency enable the enactments of cost savings in some other strategic sectors of the organization.
2. Access to global talent
Outsourcing can help to discover the wealth of new talents as well as the skills of professionals from other countries. No matter Whether it’s AI and machine learning integration, web application development in Australia, or outsourced healthcare software development, businesses can find experts in virtually any domain.
3. Scalability and flexibility
Outsourcing offers flexibility that is unparalleled in many organizations today. This is because; firms are able to expand and contract particular teams depending on the specific demand in projects. For example, outsourced IT solutions help business organizations prepare for different conditions while not having to employ permanent workers.
4. Faster time-to-market
With reliable software development teams in Australia or offshore development teams in India, businesses can speed up their project timelines. This helps innovations to make it through to the market early enough, which is useful for companies.
5. Focus on core activities
By delegating tasks like software maintenance and support or cloud software development in Australia to outsourcing partners, businesses can focus on their core competencies and strategic goals.
6. Reduced risk

Choosing the right outsourced software development partner
Tumblr media
In the period from 2023 to 2027, the revenue of software outsourcing is forecasted to thrive at a CAGR of 7.54%. So, outsourcing partner selection is one of the most vital components since it determines the success of a given venture. Here are essential factors to consider:
1. Technical expertise

AI-powered tools for outsourced development teams
According to a report from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, software development ranks among the most sought-after professions. Hence, AI is at the forefront of reshaping the outsourcing industry. Therefore, the implementation of artificial intelligence will add value to business processes, make workflow easier, and boost the results of projects. Here are some examples:
1. Automated code reviews
Tools like DeepCode and SonarQube assist outsourced teams in detecting whether errors reside in the code line or not, and whether code needs to be enriched or not. This is particularly accurate concerning AI outsourcing and in-house development industries.
2. Predictive analytics
Automated analytics tools can predict such things as the time it will take to complete the project, how much money it will cost, and what risks are possible in a software development outsourcing scenario.
3. Smart project management
Tools and platforms such as Jira and Monday.com, when empowered with AI, allow the coordination of tasks and the tracking of progress and resource allocation.
4. AI collaboration tools
Communication and collaboration with internal members and offshore software development Australia partners get facilitated through applications that include, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and zoom with integrated AI functions.
5. Natural Language Processing (NLP)
AI-powered chatbots and virtual assistants simplify communication and issue resolution, making them valuable for managing outsourced IT solutions.
Best practices for managing outsourced development teams
Outsourced teams should be mandated and coordinated following a number of recommendations to ensure the efficiency of the entirety of the outsourcing process.
Here are the best practices to ensure your project’s success:
1. Set clear objectives
Make it clear to your project team, stakeholders, and other relevant parties what the parameters of the project are, what it is that you expect out of it, and what you expect to get from it in return. This fostaines consistency between your team and the outsourcing partner to increase efficiency in service delivery.
2. Choose the right tools
Use project tracking and collaboration software approaches to track and evaluate progress and meet regular informality and collaboration targets.
3. Foster a collaborative environment
It is worthy of note that constant communication is key to ensuring that your outsourcing team is on the same page with you. Fresh produce and feedback mechanisms need to be provided in order for there to be trust as is needed in project management.
4. Draft comprehensive contracts
There should be a comprehensive outsourcing software development contract. It should address issues to do with confidentiality, ownership of ideas and concepts, plea structure and mode of handling disputes.
5. Focus on long-term relationships
Building a long-term partnership with trusted providers like SSTech System Solutions can lead to consistent quality and better project outcomes.
Conclusion

Hello! I was recently enrolled in Full Sail (Game Art). I was just wondering if you have any advice for moving forward? It's definitely tough since it's really all new to me.
Hey! Somehow caught this in the sea of spam that gets dropped in here. I really need to be more active.
This is a long one, so buckle in.
And for everyone else, I'll be back in a greater capacity soon! Been crazy busy, but you can catch me on my community discord if you'd like to say hi!
First things first. Networking. Take every opportunity at your disposal to get to know people who do what you love doing and are better at it than you. They can offer you so much opportunity for growth and feedback to expedite your work.
Two. They won't teach you every single tool to optimize your workflow. Start watching YouTube videos on Maya plugins, Blender workflows, and hidden Unreal Engine tools. I've found so many neat knick knacks just dabbling on my own. (They didn't teach me booleaning! Wild!) Oh, and figure out what you'd like your discipline to be early, and have artistic reference to back it up. For me, I want to lean into stylized WoW-esque hand painted models and Half Life inspired realism for my scenes. Having a solid direction amplifies your work and portfolio ten fold.
Three. If you can play with the workflow or software early, do so. The game art program has one of if not the most hours required for class work of any program at the university. There will be days you hate it and want to quit- persevere. Get the very best models, UV layouts, texture detail you can, those skills can only serve you later. This can also go back to that first point- talk to your peers and instructors for advice on how to optimize your workflow, because there's always ways to do things more effectively. I find modular and mirror based workflows to be especially helpful for what I do as a 3d environment artist. And on that note, TALK to your instructors. They're there to help. They can offer suggestions to lighten the load on projects and still get amazing results, ESPECIALLY Chops, the visual development instructor! He's fantastic! The sooner you know him the better.

Tumblr media
The Thrill and Benefits of Professional Photography
Photography is not just a hobby; it’s a passionate pursuit that offers numerous rewards. Here are some of the key benefits that come with embracing photography professionally:
Creative Expression: Photography allows individuals to express their creativity and showcase their unique perspective on the world. Each photograph tells a story, reflecting the photographer's vision and emotions.
Connection with Nature and People: Professional photographers often find themselves in breathtaking locations or engaging with diverse communities. This connection fosters a greater appreciation for both the natural world and human experiences.
Skill Development: Pursuing photography improves not only technical skills—such as composition and lighting—but also enhances critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. Photographers learn to adapt to different environments and subjects, honing their craft over time.
Essential Gear Recommendations
To capture stunning images, having the right photography gear is essential. Here are some must-have items for professional photographers:
Camera Body: Invest in a quality camera body that suits your style. DSLRs and mirrorless cameras are popular choices among professionals for their versatility and image quality.
Lenses: Different lenses can dramatically impact your photography. A versatile zoom lens is great for everyday use, while prime lenses can enhance low-light performance and provide sharp images.
Tripod: A sturdy tripod is crucial for capturing long-exposure shots or maintaining stability in low-light conditions. Look for lightweight options that are easy to transport.
Editing Software: Post-processing is an essential part of modern photography. Software like Adobe Lightroom or Photoshop allows photographers to enhance their images and achieve their desired aesthetic.
Protective Gear: Invest in protective bags or cases to safeguard your gear during travel. Weather-sealed equipment can also help protect your camera from the elements.
Popular Photography Destinations
Exploring diverse locations can elevate your photography portfolio. Here are some popular destinations known for their stunning scenery and photographic opportunities:
Iceland: With its dramatic landscapes, waterfalls, and glaciers, Iceland is a dream destination for landscape photographers. The unique light conditions further enhance the beauty of this breathtaking location.
Santorini, Greece: The iconic white-washed buildings and vibrant sunsets in Santorini provide endless opportunities for stunning photographs that capture the essence of Mediterranean beauty.
Yosemite National Park, USA: Renowned for its majestic mountains, waterfalls, and diverse wildlife, Yosemite offers a plethora of landscapes for nature photographers.
Tokyo, Japan: A bustling metropolis that beautifully blends tradition with modernity, Tokyo presents countless opportunities for street photography, architecture shots, and cultural exploration.
Expert Tips for Aspiring Photographers
For those looking to dive into the world of photography, here are some expert tips to help you improve your skills:
Master Your Camera: Take the time to understand your camera’s settings and functions. Familiarity with your equipment will enable you to make quick adjustments in various shooting conditions.
Practice Composition: Learn the principles of composition, such as the rule of thirds and leading lines. Experiment with different angles and perspectives to create visually interesting images.
Experiment with Lighting: Lighting plays a vital role in photography. Consider shooting during the golden hour—shortly after sunrise or before sunset—to capture soft, warm light that enhances your images.
Tell a Story: Think about the narrative behind your photographs. Aim to capture moments that evoke emotions or convey a message, allowing viewers to connect with your work on a deeper level.
Seek Feedback: Join photography communities or workshops to share your work and receive constructive criticism. Engaging with fellow photographers can provide valuable insights and inspiration.
Professional photography is an enriching art form that allows individuals to see the world through a unique lens. By embracing photography as a passion or career, one can enjoy creative expression, personal growth, and meaningful connections with nature and people alike. Exploring techniques like those found in Yvette Heiser Landscape Photography can inspire photographers to capture breathtaking outdoor scenes with depth and emotion.
