Sometimes in gamedev is more important to start bouncing out ideas than waiting to have all figured out.

A personal reflection of today for me it’s been that games are conceived to make us feel something. I think that’s why emotional game design makes so much sense to me and why I’ve been working on it since my career started. 💛

It's never too late to break up, quit, come out, move, transition, divorce, change your life, start something new. If you choose to stay with something that makes you miserable, you owe yourself a better justification than sunk cost.

Indie devs: asking for 2 pennies to publishers because they are worried of not getting the money (that anyway isn’t enough for a living) Also indie devs: pricing their games in 2 pennies because they are worried no one will buy them I’m an indie dev. Been there, done that. 🥲

Just a random morning thought: isn’t it kinda wild how cheap indie games are, considering how much work goes into making them? 🫠

Food for thought. External QA, animators, voice actors, and musicians deserve to be part of the narrative of game makers.

1st rule to successfully market your game: You have to believe yourself first that it’s the best thing ever made If you don’t, how is the audience supposed to buy it? 💛
