After months of applications, referrals, rejections, maybes, and a surprisingly long selection process, I finally landed a job, and with that I can leave my freelancer and advisory days behind, for now. I'm looking forward to finally having a proper schedule and not jet lag myself with meetings with people from the other side of the world at the craziest hours.
I can't reveal too much, because I still have to do all the required paperwork, and will probably have to sign an NDA, so for now, I can only say that I will continue to work remotely, on something pretty big.
I will have a couple of weeks to put my affairs (and my sleep schedule) in order before I begin, but there is something else. Unfortunately, this also means that I will be forced to stop working in personal projects, reduce my free time and scale down several volunteer positions, including moderation here in Telegram. In the past, I was able to balance my work with volunteering quite well, but I feel like it is my duty to fully focus on this job. I have been blessed with this great career opportunity and it is not my desire to waste it.
So that's it for now, thank you for taking the time to read this. Have a nice day.
Mercury Lighthouse 2018
BreadMaker
20 years ago a video game was released in Japan considered now the last hurrah of the JRPG golden age. A video game that, like its predecessors, built a vast world full of life within the hardware limitations. A video game that, standing on the shoulders of giants, was able to bring new concepts to the table. A video game, which despite not being perfect, is remembered today with nostalgia. A video game that assured its developers a future, but unfortunately has limited them in continuing to develop the franchise. A video game that elevated Motoi Sakuraba to the height of legends such as Koji Kondo and Nobuo Uematsu, which would later be confirmed by composing the soundtracks for the Dark Souls saga. A video game that continues to inspire today, and that at the time led me to pay a small tribute to it. Happy anniversary, hopefully we will know more soon.

After a long wait along with my benefactor, downloading 5+ GB of content, I can confirm the Abandoned "Realtime Experience" Teaser is exactly the same video as showed in the promotional tweet (except for the Yamaoka-esque music). At this point, I don't even know what to think, or this is the most elaborated Kojima prank ever, or the BBGS developers got caught in the snowball effect and now they can't stop.

The Chamber of Deputies approved on Wednesday a bill for the protection of the "neuro-rights" or rights of the brain and mind, thus giving full sanction to be enacted as law.
Chile seeks to anticipate realities that until now have hardly been thought of in the world of science fiction films, where neurotechnology and human beings cross paths.
Some of the neuro-rights that this regulation seeks to protect are personal identity, free will, mental privacy, equitable access to technologies for increasing cognitive capacity and combating algorithmic biases.

The end of an era.
Combining the cuteness of Japanese pop idols with the chirps and growls of dubstep, chibi-tech amalgamates an unbelievable one-off through the power of chiptune.
This project started out of a debate on whether the NES was capable of doing the roaring bass of dubstep. Using actual hardware, sequencing everything on Famitracker, and doing no post-processing, apart from the basic mixing and mastering, Jaelyn was able to create something truly magical. She even made a story for the two-track single.
You can learn more details about this, and grab the music for free, in her Bandcamp.
An Adepts Home - Piano Demo
BreadMaker
As part of my unwinding activities for the weekends, I'm returning once again to FL Studio. However, I don't think I'm ready to compose yet, that's why I started by making a piano demo of An Adepts Home, from Golden Sun. It's a little rough around the edges, but I think it's a good start for trying to compose a remix out of this. Let's see how far I take it.
Metroid Dread achieves what many believed impossible. it gives a breath of fresh air to the already spent Metroidvania genre, and It redeems and elevates the saga above and beyond. It balances flawlessly between exploration and action, and it satisfactorily rewards those who dedicate themselves to it. it's weird to say this 20-year-in-the-making video game is a serious contender for Game of the Year, but it actually is. This game is worth every single penny. https://youtu.be/Fo5JOpXnk5M
