Some screenwriting advice for those who are interested:
EAT YOUR DESSERT FIRST. Screenplays don’t need to be written linearly. Are you stuck, but have a scene that occurs later in the script that’s perfectly realized in your head that you can’t wait to write? Go ahead and write it now. 1/4

SCIENCE!!!!
Reminded in the comments of one of my favorite sci-fi stories.
www.uncannymagazine.com/article/the-...
The biggest movie is about science bros and the power of friendship and sacrifice, the biggest TV show is about good people doing their best under impossible circumstances to help suffering people, even under our culture’s institutionalized greed and cynicism, people are desperate for fellowship.

I know everyone says it all the time, but there are like a million good games dropping lately. Here are a few I want to highlight that I think are dope 🧵
Mythmatch is an anti-capitalist match 3 game that's adorable and incredibly smart. Neat story so far!

I reviewed Mythmatch which I absolutely loved. Beautiful puzzle design and a meaningful story about community, perseverance and the nature of leadership

Congrats to you and the rest of the team! I played through this over the last few days and found it hard to stop. It’s cute, delightful, polished, and has a wonderfully positive view on human community that feels so good to see these days. Thank you for putting so much love into creating Mythmatch!
Oh my gosh!!! five stars!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Mythmatch is really great! You'll always get me with something Greek-myth themed, but what I really like about it is that it's just so... playful? Highly interactive and rich in how it remixes the mechanics.
Great art and a fun story, too! Just dang delightful.
Do recommend!
Played a little of Mythmatch this evening, and it's fun and sweet, with some refreshingly progressive writing and depictions of the ancient world!
Huge thank you to everyone who wishlisted, bought, played, reviewed, posted, re-posted, liked, or talked about our posts surrounding the launch of 🏹Mythmatch🏹 yesterday! Every bit of interaction helps get more eyes on this very special game we've made. From the bottom of our hearts: THANK YOU 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶
I’ve been playing Mythmatch all morning, utterly charmed by the design & writing with lovely music by @ginaloughlin.com. Huge congrats to @oneofmoo.bsky.social & team! Go get it now, plays great on Steamdeck too! Petition for Agamoomnon plushie pls 🐮🏹
4.5 out of 5!?
"Mythmatch sets a new standard for what indie games can do. Its gameplay is fun and addicting, its writing and animations are phenomenal, and its pacing is just perfect." 😍
"the full release has only affirmed my feelings for what could be one of my favourite games of the year." 🤯
This game is so good - massive congratulations on making it to launch, Moo and team! Hugely compulsive, tight writing, and fun characters. Highly recommend it to anyone who liked Murder by Numbers and wants something compelling and cosy.
I’ll have some words in print soon but Mythmatch has been a personal highlight this year so far, a narrative-rich townbuilder with intuitive match -3 mechanics that’s quietly subversive in its depiction of Greek myth and anti-capitalist themes
Support indie devs! Go buy Mythmatch
Especially those who give back so much to the
#IndieDev community like Moo.
When was the last time you challenged the gods in an "anti-capitalist merge game"?
- so yeah, you know this is going to be something different!
Mythmatch is an absolute gem, crafted by a small team of people who are exceptionally passionate about their craft. Go get it!

Mythmatch is out now and its SO much fun. I've played like 5 hours of it and its the perfect post-work game.

Its got a great story that made me want to THROW my computer at the wall
Its got some lovely mini-games
The Greek god Artemis is looking determined as she prepares to fire an arrow from her bow. She is surrounded by Greek architecture while standing on a grassy floor. The following quote is also included: "It's amazing to see how Mythmatch takes something as simple as merging gameplay and classical mythological tales, and updates both into something so vibrant."
Play as outcast Artemis and work alongside the mortals to repair their broken buildings and relationships. Merge the items, unite the people, make a home.

“It’s a full story-driven adventure in a bright, cheerful world filled by lovely people. It’s combat-free RPG with beautiful art, lovely writing, and an awful lot more to offer should you happen to roll credits”
Wow, what a lovely review 🤩 💖

Eeeeee!!! It’s out on Steam!!
This is a hopeful, joyful game about how it takes a village to raise a Goddess…it celebrates the very best of humanity - our ability to connect. I really hope you enjoy! 🏛️🏹

i, for one, am delighted that we finally have a definition of “woke”
So why should you play Mythmatch? Because it has so much heart. Because some of our players enjoy the minigames so much they only do those, for dozens of hours. Because it’s so funny, and because it asks us what it means to be human, to participate in our community, to lift each other up.
I’ve been largely offline recently but I’m breaking that pattern to let you know that Mythmatch, a game I was *so* lucky to work on, comes out on Friday!
It would mean to world to me if you could check it out and tell your friends about it!!
