This is my personal Twitter account. I tweet about my life, my thoughts, jokes and feelings. Work is a big part of my life & I'll tweet about it - but I'll also tweet other things. I will use language appropriate for me and my peer group. I may share opinions you disagree with.
@SamMGreer
I've never used one because my boss loop is:
- I know I'm going to die on my first few attempts, I'm just here to learn the patterns, not worth activating yet
- Beat the boss before I get confident enough that I will beat them to use a Rune Arc
If you see people saying mean things about me here, just block them and forget it.
As long as you reply, they'll keep doing it - they're looking to rile people up and replying/sharing gives them what they want.
I'm happy about who I am & how I look, that's all that matters ๐ค
It was just announced internally so I think I'm safe to tell the rest of you that I'm no longer the Community Engagement Manager at Uplift Games..
I'm now their Head of Comms!
Today is my official 4-year anniversary of working on Adopt Me!
When I joined as a video editor to help kickstart a YouTube channel I don't think I even remotely saw a future where I was managing a team of 5 people as a Head of Comms!
Since it's picking up some traction, I think now is a good time to talk about it.
I'm fat, and I've gained some more weight recently. Some of it is choosing to eat unhealthily, some of it is an ongoing chronic health issue.
I'm also the happiest I've ever been.

This is horrifying, the same as seeing people searching for a 'cure' for autism.
Wish we spent more time and energy on fixing the societal problems that make this difficult, rather than chasing snake oil eugenics
I'm hiring a Community Manager!
Working at Uplift is a blast and I'm looking for someone to work closely with me in making sure we continue to develop Adopt Me as a player-focused game.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!
Hiding in the toilets to have a little cry at this.
I love what I do and I love the people I do it with - and I'm forever indebted to all the people who've trusted me, helped me and mentored me along the years.
Will be holding this moment in my memory for the rest of my life ๐
I'm home! Finally back in Manchester, to live, for the first time in a decade.
And what better garm to arrive here in than a lovely Chris Egan shirt reminding me of my emotional (and now physical) home.
I didn't think we'd get this one fixed until next week (We're really busy working on Halloween)
Our engineer for this one saw how much this was affecting you and found the energy to get it fixed early.
I love working with a team that prioritises our players like this. Best team
For anyone struggling to color furniture in Adopt Me with the multi-color tool, a fix is now live in private servers!
It'll roll out to the rest of the servers overnight to minimise disruption and we'll let you know on
@PlayAdoptMe
when it's fully rolled out.
Got myself some new clothes as a christmas treat and tried them on when they arrived today.
It's leaning a bit McDonald's Team Lead but I think there's a future for me in polo shirts
Happy to announce that, after a massively successful Insomnia, I've taken a permanent role at Player1 as Stage Creator & Manager
Basically, I'm going to continue putting really cool stuff on stages for the foreseeable future. Real excited to see what madness we can do in summer
I'm so excited! From Monday I will no longer be the Senior Media Producer for Uplift Games, instead I'll be the Community Engagement Manager!
I'll be leading our Social Media & Media Production team, growing our channels, and creating even more exciting content for our players.
Winter Update Week 1 Reveal coming as normal next week (check Weekly News) but this is so cool we didn't want to wait to show it off.
Frostclaw's Fury is a full narrative adventure that rewards gingerbread and starts in Week 2 of our HUGE Winter Festival
Heard from so many of you this week that you needed an extra boost to adopt all the dinosaurs, so we've dropped a surprise 2x Weekend to help you get what you're after! Enjoy!
Just realised today is my 3 year anniversary of officially working on Adopt Me for
@UpliftGames
Originally a contracted video editor, it's been great to work somewhere that has allowed me to go from making fun YouTube videos to managing our Comms team as we grew!
Comparison is the thief of joy.
No hate to anyone who chooses to use a values site to compare trades in Adopt Me, you should feel free to play how you want.
But I think some of you would have more fun if you followed your heart, and didn't worry so much about maximising value
I'm about as big a Warren Ellis fan as you can be, I read all his work, his newsletters, and have a tattoo on my body from a work of his
I still believe the people who say he's assaulted, or taken advantage of them using his status as an industry veteran. You should too
No update video today, since I gave all the details on Monday.
BUT!
we'll have a video go live when the sale starts on Friday that is basically an update video AND we've got a fun video reveal tomorrow that I have been dying to show you. Can't wait to see your reactions :D
I appreciate all the love our fans have for Adopt Me and the fun videos we make, but please don't message my wife on Twitter, Instagram etc.
I love hearing from you, even if I don't have the time to read or reply to everything so make sure you send your messages to me instead
Last of these for a little while, I think. Really enjoyed being able to do something fun like three codes in a week after the egg launch as an experiment.
I will not stop posting about this until we hire someone - this is a great role for someone with video experience looking to get into gaming or someone with game streaming/video editing experience looking to do it full time for a great community.
We are hiring! ๐ฆ
We are looking for our next Media Producer/Video Editor superstar to help us create the best content for

I have a life I really enjoy, friends and family that mean the world to me. I spend my weekends on hobbies, I just spent an afternoon watching my favourite movie at a local cinema!
I don't have to be slim to live a life I love, and you don't either. Be the person you love to be!
I am now done with work for a bit. Taking a break to unwind, catch up on my hobby projects, and commit to wearing these outfits outside the house for once.
Going to try for a phone break too, so if you have burning Adopt Me questions just bother Matt for a week โ๏ธ
Just realised I've now amassed two thousand followers on here. Thanks to everyone who's followed me because of my new job, sorry I won't ever leak anything on here - it's just Croc disrespecting and queer shitpost retweeting until the end of time
Put some big text on-screen to cover up my mistake (hasty edit half an hour before release).
There are two Legendaries in the upcoming egg (plus a secret third legendary in the update ๐)
Delighted to share that I'll be attending (and judging) GameDevHeroes in Brighton again.
My favourite part of Develop, looking forward to seeing so many old friends and making some new ones!
I got new glasses yesterday and Danielle has started pushing me into my locker and kicking my bag down the stairs. This is classic high school bullying
This is a scheduled reminder that today is my birthday.
Unfortunately, I've turned 35 and after five years trying to track me down I've finally been Logan's Run'd off of social media so please direct all birthday celebrations towards my loving wife.
I've never been nominated for an award before!
Thank you everyone who nominated me, just being thought of alongside a bunch of people I look up to is an honour in itself!
My heart goes out to everyone at Player1 today.
It was always characterised by a group of incredibly committed people working under impossible conditions to make miracles happen, and time and again the business let those people down. They deserved better than this.

The smartest thing I've ever done is add these guidelines to my Premiere Pro. Means when I'm cutting trailers/videos that are going on YouTube and TikTok I know exactly what will be kept in the frame when I switch to 9:16. Highly recommend it!
I checked with NewFissy, these aren't new or recent changes.
The numbers shared online (on Fandom, random guides, etc) have been wrong for years. Haven't had a reason to check them until the Age-Up Potions came out.
It's time to finally share the numbers behind each pet rarity and their task needs while leveling up! ๐ฆ๐
The new update and Aging-Up potion have stirred up a lot of conversations around this topic, but these numbers have not changed recently ๐ค
Merry Christmas everyone!
Players will be happy to know you're not getting rid of me so easily! I'm sticking around during the shutdown to make sure all our videos go out smoothly, look after the Adopt Me Discord, and to livestream next Thursday's update!
And that's a wrap for 2023! We finish today and start our winter shutdown, giving everyone a very well-deserved week off! And as we look forward to what next year will bring, we wish everyone a Happy Holidays from all of us at Uplift! ๐ฆ
This was a production error on our end.
Little peek behind the curtain here, we often sketch and sometimes even model pets that don't make it into the eggs. This is one of them, and unfortunately it snuck its way into this video.
@JesseRaen
@JesseRaen
i know you dont often reply to adopt me stuff here but I dont think Iโll get a reply on the actual account, They didnt put this pet in the video and they said only 12 pets. With this pet it would be 13?
Are we still getting it in the egg??
Thrilled to be part of a

again. Can't wait for everyone to enjoy this bonus update, and to see what everyone else has done in their games.
Might have to go badge collecting over the weekend..

Building the profile system has been a real labour of love among a small team at Uplift for the last six months or so.
Absolutely delighted to see so many players filling them out, making them pretty, and sharing them over the weekend! Makes their effort feel worth it.
With Weekly News out, that's my last Adopt Me video for like a month!
I'm taking a couple of weeks to move house (and get internet installed!) and then I'll only have a few days back at Uplift before I fly out to RDC!
Hope you all remember who I am by the time I get back.
You should see a drop in the number of people in the Uplift Games Influencer group tomorrow.
When I relaunched the program back in August we went through and added new people, but skipped over removing people who should no longer have the rank.
So proud of everyone at Uplift. This year has been amazing, and the Garden Egg is one of my favorite updates from the past four years I've been here.
Delighted I get to be a part of so many player's amazing memories in the future.
Absolutely shattered after that!
When we started livestreaming on the channel I never expected to hit 13,000 watching us simultaneously.
It's a staggering number of people to think about, glad I couldn't see the number while I was live or I might have panicked!
For anyone struggling to color furniture in Adopt Me with the multi-color tool, a fix is now live in private servers!

when it's fully rolled out.
When we moved into this flat in Jan 2020 it was just for 6 months while we sorted out moving up north. Then the pandemic happened, and three & a half years later we're still here.
Now, on 1st August we'll be getting the keys to our new home in Manchester!
Happy Pride Month! To celebrate, I've rebooked up the PS2 in our house so we can play Spyro (queer icon).
In all seriousness for my younger followers - the more I accepted who I am, the happier I became in life.
You deserve to live openly, loved for who you are โบ๏ธ
If you see me at RDC today come say hi. Also come watch my panel talk in 45 mins in the tent theater - I promise to say something either insightful or funny.
