I've been playing this and it's ticking whimsy, me funny bones and is just a really enjoyable game. It reminds me a bit of the book A Witches Guide to Magical Innkeeping 🪄

For every post you do about GTA you should then link an indie games steam page. Bit like those schemes that plant trees. Support and spread 😌

Tues is looking open for any meetings folks want to get in at @developconference.com to discuss: ✨Media training ✨Marketing/Comms GTM planning ✨Steam curation ✨PR ✨Pitching support ✨B2B/B2C Comms ✨Workshop/mentoring consultation ❌Graphic Design (it's clear why) Also happy to catch up in the wild ☺️

A game by a team that were laid off and told they could use the time to make something for themselves? What a story for press to get stuck into. Great work by everyone on the The Queen's Gondola!

Offering free service this week where if you point out someone that says "other countries do just fine in hotter temps" or "it was warmer in 1875" i will go collect them and yeet them into an active volcano 😊

I have a couple more workshops coming up this month, helping new studios understand how marketing fits into their everyday. I'm available for similar workshops, studio marketing insights, and team building sessions, catered as needed 👥📣👥

Ian is a great person to chat to if you're looking for someone with production, biz dev and merchandising skills. His website 👇 shows just some of the cool projects he's played a major role in. I've seen it first hand on games I've worked on such as Dredge ⛴️

In 2011 Coronation Street The Mystery of the Missing Hotpot Recipe released onto PC and other studios were so scared of Betty eating up the market they decided to early release titles like Skyrim, Dragon Age 2, Gears of War 3, The Witcher 2 etc #gamefacts #truehistory

Getting life advice when out on a walk

She's applicable to so many things

That's 007 First Light story complete. Enjoyed it and interested to see what's next. Also happy for more Nightfire like games to come out using Bond IP 😄

Good grief hire me to help you properly pronounce the Irish words and names you've put in your game. Heck I'll do it for free (I won't) 😭

Crazy to think it's at this stage now, I remember playing early builds back when I was on the team. So excited for it to come out.

Hope these pictures of birds I took on Scottish islands this past weekend make you go :)

So much full blown AI garbage polluting steam next fest atm and getting in the way of all the games being made by hard working passionate devs 😡

List of Steam Next Fest games I've spotted to play or wishlist this week. First - Look to the Birds 🐦 Missed the demo for this but will be primed for next time. Crafty of the devs to make a game that suits the guaranteed latent hobby interests of a late 30s woman - birding!

I'll be attending @developconference.com and apart from melting, will be free to chat about how we could work together in a full-time or freelance capacity to support Marketing, Comms, PR & Brand needs. I'll be carrying multiple fans with me, so that's another excuse to see me😁

I'm machamping at the bit to get back to work, hope this also gave you a shuckle. Haha I've lost it 😃

I played this a wee while ago and really enjoyed it. This and Kabuto Park are scratching that "fun low stakes can pick up and play" itch that is sorely needed to unwind

👋 Do I know any freelance social media managers who are attending Develop and want a potential connection with a studio looking for some support?

Was proud and delighted to run a marketing workshop today for @imirt.bsky.social and as often is the case, it wasn't a one-way learning street as folks who joined had some great insights. Thanks to @leglessgamer.bsky.social and Leela for getting it set up! 💚

Kabuto Park by @dodoot.bsky.social is so delightful to play and in the best way possible, I can happily lose track of time just catching bugs and making children cry when I beat their bugs 😌

hate when corporations use blatant tactics to lure in lesbian consumers but alas i must succumb 😌

I offer exclusive VIP services like the below if you work with me 😌

Just want to say thank you to everyone who has reached out or shared me around. I had an ugly crying fit earlier because I was overwhelmed to have gotten such support. It has great meaning and want yous to know that💚

Shocked & heartbroken to say Team17 PR & Events dept & thus my role have been made redundant. ✨Looking for new roles using my 15 years supporting projects & brands across Marketing, PR, Brand & Comms✨ I appreciate any help that comes my way. Dhia libh uilig💚 (More info in post under this)

Having a nice coffee from one of Ireland's few national parks and hoping for the best this week

Here I am after being painted

Got hands on early build of @murdermeetcute.com and think folks who play the demo will be itching to see how the story continues and delves into an ode to analog horror vibes.

Unfortunately this can be such a cold and unempathetic industry. It makes you even more grateful for those that support each other and stand up for doing the right thing.

Hi folks. I'm Claire, a friendly Irish lass and veteran of Marketing, Brand and PR. I've worked on over 40 titles so far across AAA & indie. You can find out more on 🦈www.clairesharkbit.com If you need advice/support in the areas I specialise in, my digital door is open (unless I'm napping)😊

Think we need a break from "father figure and child" games to give room to "drunk aunt at a wedding" storylines. Let their stories be heard!

Me to anyone that reminds me a fav game came out multiple decades ago

Throwback to 2022 when we helped Lisa to get back into her favourite games, like Assassin’s Creed, despite her very limited hand and finger movements! Find out more about her setup here: www.specialeffect.org.uk/news/it-was-...

Hi Press! Please cast your lovely eyeballs on the 3 dev team behind @murdermeetcute.com They're available for interviews & getting you a cheeky sneaky build to try out. You just gotta be cute and (murder).meet them 🥸 store.steampowered.com/app/4253020/...
