Most indie devs build games like this:
Alone, At home, In isolation
That’s brutal!
So we launched GDHQ
A monthly co-working hub for indie devs
Whiteboards
Fast WiFi
Breakout areas
Free Snacks!
And devs who understand what you're building
👥 Bring a +1 free next month

That's a very determined look you're on the receiving end of 😅
Was an amazing MCC! Watched live on @xbcrafted.com 's stream, which was so fun, but plan to go look at some of the other teams' videos today. What was your favourite part of the weekend?
Does it mean 2nd breakfast is now a thing?
Look after yourself 🫂
Loving seeing all these beautiful golden ginger cats 💜
How can you bear to leave that beautiful boi? I'm sure he'd love to hang out with you out at work too 🤔😂

Well said!
Your Project Manager is just helping you sort out your priorities, and I think "more cat cuddles" has gone to the top of the list 🤣

Oscar is joined by fellow host and captain of the team here at GDL.
We talk about Google's AI world generating platform Gemini and its implications for game making and maker (as well as the wider issues affecting the role of LLM Gen AI tools).

Both? 😅
Thank you for your work on Date Everything. While my AuDHD daughter played, there were happy shouts of "come see this!", and I got to share her joy in the game and characters (Diane & Dante are her favourites). Loved that you can be friends with everyone if dating relationships aren't your thing

We lied!! We said we had 60 games..
In fact we have 64!
But you only have one day to play them all.
You know Indie games are where the most exciting experimentation happens and you can play them all first at #GDLX26.
Join us 28th March: buff.ly/J12coNQ
Random-ish fact of the day (yes, I'm baking cupcakes)
If you have no vanilla, add a tablespoon of custard powder before adding the wet ingredients. Gives the right flavour & stops the batter splitting. Use 1 tablespoon less of flour
Was a fun stream. Thanks xB 😀
Gave you thought about Swedish wild blueberries instead? (I think we call them bilberries?) They have so much more flavour. I want to have a few pots of the bilberry bushes in my new (tiny) garden
Trying to get past the imposter syndrome feelings, so am finally, officially, mentioning that I am a proud Community Manager for the GDL Discord. Supporting our lovely game devs. In fact, why not come join us? We have devs from all over the world not just the UK
