Had an opportunity to attend DICE Europe in Scotland and I loved it.

Ouch but.... Not false. We need people to drop the excel sheets and get in early, get in and take risk instead of just being fucking middlemen. If you're taking revenue % - fucking earn it.

Feels like it was yesterday. This project helped me to overcome tough period during Covid, and I am beyond happy you are still using it. Thank you.

Hello world. My name is Pavol and I have been around gamedev for a while, mostly in writing, events and biz dev. At the moment I am working at engineering studio PixelAnt Games and keeping an eye on everything events related at Game Conference Guide on a side. Lets be friends.

I want to make a personal appeal for the beautiful new game of Palestinian gamedev @rasheedabueideh.bsky.social. As nobody will fund a game about the 1948 Nakba, Rasheed is crowdfunding via launchgood.com/1948. I've been doing production advice on the game pro bono, and it deserves to exist.
