Look, it’s really straightforward to get a publisher as a new name indie in 2025. Simply do 95% of the work making and marketing your game, and if your metrics are trending towards almost certain success, a publisher will swoop in to promise the remaining 5%, deliver 3%, and collect 75%

I'm basically not traveling anymore because of this. Is it likely I'm going to get arrested for taking a piss in a restroom if I have a stopover in Texas or some other state that's hard to control? No. Is that risk still enough to utterly offset any chance I'm going to PAX or whatever? Gosh yes.

The game industry's biggest secret is that you don't need to ship a game to become a developer. You just need to go to your Android phone's settings, find the "build number" and tap it 7 times.

I've got a thoughts on "UGC game platforms" like Roblox and its competitors. There's an interesting opportunity here, especially for indies. But not by trying to make the next Roblox. Instead, I think "game as a platform" is much more interesting:

There's been lots of investment in UGC (user generated content) this past few years, largely motivated by the tens of billions in revenue Roblox has generated. Epic seems to have been the most succes...
