Oh no
In case you missed it, here are the slides to our Spreadsheet GDC talk #gdc2026 -- and the video should be available soon on the vault

We had another great crew of spreadsheet lovers this year, with some new faces and some returning for a 2nd round.
Yes it was nerdy, but in all the best ways.
Also, if I put you on the spot before the talk and asked you about your first spreadsheet, know that it came from a place of love!
I hope as many people who wanted these got them #whatisbrg
THANK YOU for coming to the #GDC2026 Spreadsheets Microtalks with @tylermakesgames.bsky.social , @legulm.bsky.social , @rhythmicsheep.bsky.social , @everest.bsky.social , @tomomoriwaki.bsky.social , and @turtlerockstudios.bsky.social - what were your takeaways and what will you be doing differently?

Aaaw I didn’t realize you were in the audience! I would totally have said hi
And that’s a wrap for spreadsheets at GDC! Thanks to everyone who came to see us nerd out
Nice! If you go to the spreadsheet talk, you may be rewarded.
Also if you go to the Yerba Buena Garden Wednesday afternoon, a certain Monsieur Fournier may have a riddle for you.
If GDC keep letting me talk (about spreadsheets) then I’ll keep talking (about spreadsheets)
What's going on with the Power of Community section on GDC's website? Guess we'll find out starting tomorrow!

Every time I talked to people about last year’s spreadsheet talk followed the same sequence:
1. Nervous laugh
2. LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THIS SPREADSHEET I USE
It’s going to be a fun time again!
Oh no. Are you getting hit up by random bizdev folks now?
(I’m pretending to be controlling the largest steam engine in the world in that picture, so not too spreadsheet-y)
I’m speaking at GDC next week, along with @tylermakesgames.bsky.social , @rhythmicsheep.bsky.social , @funnygodmother.bsky.social , @everest.bsky.social , @tomomoriwaki.bsky.social and Mike Rossmassler from @turtlerockstudios.bsky.social — all with our own take on spreadsheets! 4:30pm on Tuesday
Aaaaaw we were supposed to be earlier in the day, but they bumped us to the last time slot
Less than a week away! Y'all ready to hear me talk about VLOOKUP in front of a live audience?
KAWS & Calder at the SFMOMA, just across the street from where GDC will be in a week’s time
You mean I’m here a week early?!
