With so much jadedness and toxic gloom pervading the industry, the optimism and camaraderie of GDC was such a necessary antidote. I witnessed so much creativity, passion, persistence, & kindness over the last 5 days. I’m returning home more excited than ever to support that version of the industry.

In case you’re attending #GDC2025 and do not know about this; if you’re ever feeling unsafe, need assistance, or see something troubling, you can call this 24 hour hotline. They will listen and assist however possible whether you’re at an official GDC event or simply in San Francisco for the event.

If you’re at GDC next week, come fulfill your power fantasy of wielding an alien-engineered spear/whip/grappling hook/weapon of unimaginable versatility by playing ChainStaff at The MIX!

Steam reviews are coming in for the Demon Spore demo and they’re all positive 🫀 My fav so far: “[G]ot wrecked in the 1st major encounter with 3 players. Beat the floor on the 2nd play. You have to think like a scientist to win.” Play it with friends now! store.steampowered.com/app/2744940/...

I flipped the switch... The ChainStaff demo is live on Steam. Time to run n gun n spear some giant monsters! store.steampowered.com/app/2976260/...

Hi Bluesky! We're Null Games, an indie games publisher dedicated to helping developers succeed in making the games they're passionate about.

Post your favorite Pokémon, wrong answers only

Need a noclip documentary about my man Pedro Eustache.

It was a pleasure chatting with @lukeplunkett.com about the world of video game operations!

Kraków making my three-sizes-too-small heart get a little bigger.

Here's a clip on how I'm getting a nice 3D look out of my hand-painted HD sprite art for my next game ChainStaff! Full video for your viewing pleasure, lots more #Animation examples: www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxhe... #GameDev #ChainStaff #Spine #IndieGames #indiegames

Bittersweet that my first PAX with @null.games would be the last time I had the privilege of sharing some lovingly crafted indie games with Shuhei Yoshida. Truly one of a kind in our industry. I sincerely hope I’m able to exude the same genuine passion for games that Shuhei did after 3 decades.

Game Marketing Tip Make your game accessible to as many players as possible. Consider options for different difficulty levels, colorblind modes, or other accessibility features in your design. Inclusivity broadens your audience. #gamedev #indiegames #indiedev

Optimist: The cup is half full Pessimist: The cup is half empty Video Game Operations Person: Do we have a centralized source or truth for tracking the cup? What’s the opportunity cost of all this cup business? What are the legal and compliance risks associated with the cup?
