As seen in the @futuregamesshow.bsky.social
We made an episode about publishing contracts and somehow, it's one of our most fun ones yet.

Stop! Art Thief!
@aceottorney.bsky.social and I joined forces and wrote a guide to tackling art theft on Wacom Yuify's blog! Link below. 👇
Normally I only get summoned by shouting objection…. (Happy to help)
Of course, happy to help!😊
The only double winner of the evening, @sokpop.co took home the Dutch Game Award 2025 for Best Game and Best Game Design from the Dutch Games Association. The award also honoured attorney René Otto (@aceottorney.bsky.social) and Engine Software's Ivo Wubbels.

Thank you so much, really appreciate it!❤️
A contract from a publisher is a dream come true - but what offer should you actually sign?
We are bringing @aceottorney.bsky.social to an upcoming openindie episode!
👇 Drop your questions below and we’ll ask René on the show!

Dit is een van de leukste dingen die ik heb gedaan tot nu toe. Met dank aan @aceottorney.bsky.social voor het advies rondom auteursrecht van Sinterklaasliedjes.
(Laat even een like achter op de IG-post zodat ik dit vaker kan doen ✌️)

While legal questions are still the ones I get most often, the second most frequent has been: “When are you releasing merch?". We are excited to share a first look at Deviant Legal's esports jerseys in the works!
October becomes tearstober for me at this rate😭❤️
Thank you so much!🥹❤️

Thanks for the signal boost. I think I could help with Milestone funding for Revenue Share on a relatively short notice!😊
An image about the game developer's guide to publishing agreements feauturing otto the otter
Proud to announce Deviant Legal’s Game Developer’s Guide to Publishing Agreements: a free resource for developers wanting to learn about publishing deals. Publicly accessible, without requiring to provide your data: deviantlegal.com/guide/game-d...
Now I want to use this as a quote within my guide. Together with your "damn son".... LOL
Chairman mouse, I'm dying😂❤️
😅😭
Thank you so much!🫶🏻
😭❤️
Aww, thanks!!🫶🏻
Thank you so much, Fred!
I cried reading this message
When @aceottorney.bsky.social first told me about this I said "this could change people's lives and stop developers from getting exploited" and having seen the final resource, I think I was not wrong. I'd call it a must-bookmark for indie devs.
Hold our beers😊
No thanks needed. I hope it helps!❤️
You’re welcome❤️
You’re welcome and thanks for giving feedback. We want to make it as accessible as possible, which also includes the font. We will also look into different kind of accessibility as well!
