Exciting news! I'm giving a talk in Vancouver alongside other AMAZING indie developers (Untitled Goose Game, Night in the Woods, Goodbye Volcano High). Please join us for a fantastic night of networking and learning ✨
Tickets 👇
Please go check out www.vileisbanned.com! @dirtlord77.bsky.social is an amazing dev and it's frankly bullshit her game was pulled from Steam.
If you want to help her out as well as play an amazing horror game, please consider going to the link, downloading the game, and supporting her if you can ❤️
This is a must-play from the jam so far: it's an information game set on a social media feed. You gather usernames and hashtags so that you can respond to DMs from your less terminally online friends asking you to explain the latest thing that has happened.
Mistakes are brutal. But they teach fast.
@sonderingemily.bsky.social unpacks a failed launch and what they’d do differently today.
💡 Real talk from real devs, in Unity’s Indie Survival Guide.

Emily has a shocked expression. To her left is old GirlsGoGames website screenshot. On the right is a young girl with her mouth wide open, like at the dentist. There is also tinkerbell who is at the emergency room with a worried expression.
What happened to GirlsGoGames? My favorite website as a kid is now filled with slop, so why? New video out now!

Key Art for lily's world XD, featuring a blue & lilac pixelated computer screen. In one of the windows is a girl with long black hair & a black bar censoring her eyes.
lily's world XD by @sonderingemily.bsky.social isn't just a psychological horror about reliving your days as a teen in the 2000s 😅
After investigating a teen girl’s computer, you don't just find old conversations & embarrassing selfies, you find something sinister. Messages addressed to you. ✉️

@patrickklepek.bsky.social & @sonderingemily.bsky.social if you haven't already, two people doing thoughtful work worth paying attention to 🥰
I believe internships should be paid, but I'm operating on a tiny budget. As a mostly solo dev, internships could also take a lot out of my schedule, but isn't something I'm completely against. But for the reason that I can't pay, I don't do them. I understand both perspectives though!
I can do it! I used to do copywriting for Meta and Yahoo (at Yahoo, I specifically did copywriting for games).
Ahh thank you!!
