My first review of the year is here! Is The Abandoned Planet worth the journey? youtu.be/dF3lmJerDA8?...

ROSEWATER comes out exactly one month from today. I’ve been working on it for six years, the longest it’s ever taken me to develop a game. But I also honestly think it’s my best work to date, and I’m excited to share it with you all🤠 store.steampowered.com/app/1226670/...

Build your own brand as an indie game developer. The press or Steam discovery isn't coming to save you. You have to be interesting, gather a following and show them cool stuff. Nobody is coming to save you and nobody knows about your game. Be vocal. Be cool. Post daily. #gamedev

Next up for me is the dark comedy Prim.

I’ve just finished Monolith by Animation Arts. Review soon. What did you think of it?

My new regime of playing adventure games is amazing. No stress or pressure. An hour a day til a game is done. Almost finished my 2nd of the year. I’d LOVE your ideas of what to play next. Can be from any year not necessarily a new release. All games will be reviews too (first one out asap!)

My new video has arrived. The Future starts HERE: youtube.com/watch?v=mD-K...
