How many wishlists did you get on the first Next Fest day? If you feel like sharing then other devs can see what is normal and what is possible. Thx!

Random #GameDev thought of the day... Discoverability is not a gamer problem. It's a games business problem. No one is complaining they can't find enough games to play. IMO ✨COMMUNITY✨ is the highest ROI investment a studio can make in their games marketing at the moment 🧵1/?

Fantastic day at Guildford Games Festival/dev summit yesterday. Great to see the event go from strength to strength and good addition of the summit this year. Here's a dump of all the photos I took...

Notion has sadly, quickly gone the way of Evernote & Trello. What was a great tool for simplicity and snappiness, has quickly gotten bloated and sluggish to the point of infuriating to use. The shoe-horned AI guff is also extra annoying. #OldManShoutsAtCloud #FirstWorldProblems

What are your thoughts when you see game studios who not so long ago were announcing layoffs, now posting hiring updates? It's super conflicting because Boo! Surely there were people who could have been spared the distress of being laid off? But also, Yay! more jobs for cool people!

All the reposting and support for this genuinely made a big difference: I had the best single day of sales since this time last year. Thank you, all. (And it goes to show that Bluesky does have the power to move the needle, like the Twitter of antiquity once did!)

Simple pleasures for off grid living. Sun out and producing 160w of power. That's enough to power the starlink internet AND charge a laptop. What a day 😛

Rate your January Mine, 7/10. 🌞 Good: Working with awesome people on awesome things. Managing a tough winter in a van. Making slow but steady progress on the barn. ⛈️ Tough: Someone set the games industry to Ultra Nightmare difficulty and it sucks seeing so many people struggle.
