#GodotConBoston was a huge success! We met so many cool devs, played a lot of interesting indie games, and even got to playtest #BRODUCE for a bunch of people! Special thanks to @bostongamedev.bsky.social for hosting such an amazing Demo Night! #indiedev #gamedev #godotengine #godot

Thank you to everyone who showed up and made Indies Demo Night and Make Games Make Friends an absolute blast! The turnout of devs from all over our community, the country and the world blew us away.

My #PAXEast Whirlwind of Fun is underway! Had a 🥰 time at the @bostongamedev.bsky.social event last night. Met devs working on a couch co-op game with a cute embroidery art style. The audience is "people who don't usually play games" but maybe it's for you too? store.steampowered.com/app/3448390/...

We’re out here at @bostongamedev.bsky.social Pre-Pax Demo Night 💥💖 omg we luv it here

Hey gamedev friends! If you're in Boston for PAX, come hang out with local devs at the Make Games, Make Friends meetup. I'm rolling into it straight from jury duty that day, so come lift a glass with me

First version of Make Games, Make Friends was a meetup I started w/ Adam Arrigo after we met at GDC 12-13 yrs ago. I was at Irrational, he was at Harmonix, we said “it’s dumb that our studios don’t know each other, let’s fix that!” Makes me so happy the event is still going bsky.app/profile/bost...
