Yep, that tracks... 🤣

✨This months newsletter is out!✨ HOW TO GET GIGS AS A FREELANCER!? 🔥💦 This was cathartic to write and hope it's relatable and helpful❤️ www.nehapatelaudio.com/blog-3-1/blo...

THIS! This is something I'm tired of telling people. In videogames, there's this notion of working always on crunch even if it's not needed. From the production side it is really hard to make people understand that they are underperforming doing that. Rest, have a life, and you'll work better!

Y los devs son majissimos, lo que le sube el stat de carisma al juego. Con ganas de jugarlo hoy!

Muy buen video!

I've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice: www.pentadact.com/2026-01-08-1... I hope it's of use, not least because goddamn I forgot how long blog posts take to write.

💵 MONEY for GAME? In 2026??? 💵 There have been more and more successful-game-devs-turned-game-funders popping up, so here's a lil' thread of some of the more recent ones I've seen. Hopefully this helps you get some $$$! 🔽

Valve HQ: "AAA game about murdering a lot of Muslims and destroying their homes" "ship it" "solo game in which you fight the IDF" "ban the savages" "indie game that criticizes Western power dynamics with a horse metaphor" "unacceptable" "This review hates Muslims" "ahh smell that thats freedom"

We sellin' 🎉

2 months after our release, we finally have a Steam verdict about #NetherWorld 18+ content subcategories. 🤔Should a 0.51% of game content be considered 'Frequent'/'Primarily' content? Let's talk about it! 🐙👇 store.steampowered.com/news/app/672... #indiegame #gamedev

What's your number one personal game design principle? And even better - does it have a cool name?

I think it should remain possible to work professionally on video games without having to move

It's time to Panik!

I got a call from a recruiter to apply to an opportunity "because I am the perfect fit". And got rejected by an automated email the next day. I'm starting to think that there's a scam going on and there's really no jobs in the game's industry 🤡

Hi, Bluesky! After 9 years of development, from a solodev project to a 3-6 crazy dev team we’re glad to announce that… 🐙🎉 #NetherWorld, our action-adventure narrative experience is FINALLY OUT on #Steam and #NintendoSwitch!!! 🐙🎉

Empezando como un proyecto solodev en 2016 + 9 años de desarrollo (7 desde el Kickstarter) + Entre 3 y 6 devs locos Estamos super orgullosos de anunciar que… 🎉#NetherWorld YA ESTÁ DISPONIBLE en Steam y Nintendo Switch!! 🎉 youtu.be/CKshQlnMb3U

I was going to do an update of how my process of looking for a job is going. But this sums it up:

Thinking about Silksong. There is a Law of the Sea that states when two ships intersect, the larger ship has the right of way. Due to mass, momentum, maneuverability, it's the responsibility of smaller ships to get out the way. Being a ship that big, I think it's important to broadcast your intent.

Weeell, Gamescom has ended....sadly. It was my first and it was a blast! The event is sooOoo BIG. The only thing I regret is not talking to even more devs. I've met incredible people, and it's always great to see the reaction to NetherWorld. I hope I can be there next year too!

Packed everything I will need for Gamescom #GameDev #cat

I'm looking for job as a Game Producer and I did a little table to track the applications. I already have experience with job hunting on #GameDev, so I expect an ✨excruciating✨experience. Will keep you posted on my mental breakdowns. Wish me luck!

Me dispongo a crear mi excel de CVs mandados para mi próxima búsqueda de trabajo. Voy a ir llamando a mi psicóloga también.

Hace poco cerró uno de los estudios de videojuegos más importantes del país. He estado hablando con extrabajadores para que puedan narrar su historia, que hasta ahora no había podido ser contada. Hoy me estreno con @niveloculto.com para narrar esto en primicia: niveloculto.com/el-cierre-de...

This is so important. Rap3 is the only crime where victims aren’t believed and the rap*st isn’t labeled as such but they refer to the victim as the “accuser.”

This is art xD

Astro Prospector is OUT NOW! 🚀 Around 5 hours of incremental bullet hell, +200 upgrades with rather silly names and lots of addictive AstroCoffee for 4.99$, with a 10% discount during the first week! ☕ store.steampowered.com/app/3503440/...

I'm always surprised when there's massive layoffs in the games industry (every week). And there's comments telling the people who just lost their jobs to go indie...like it didn't cost money to do an indie game or something 🤣

It's so crazy how the comics, animation, and video games industries are wildly popular billion dollar profit type shit and yet there is no money and no jobs for the people who make that possible

Esto debería ser lo normal. He dicho.
