Just found out that Bi Gan has released a new movie and i missed the premiere last month. Tho I don't think i'm actually ready for this.
Glad that I still have zero clue what the movie is about, hopefully I can watch it blind.

Super helpful talk here. Still hoping for a publisher for my game, but this jam-packed presentation gave me a lot confidence to explore self-publishing option.
We were so lucky to have Victoria Tran @victoriatran.bsky.social at #Guadalindie25.Yes, the Communications Director at Innersloth.
She delivered one of the most practical (and fun!) talks on marketing on Self-Publishing that every dev should watch.

Plan the train route for the world’s spookiest theme park! Pick up the monsters & drop them at their destinations. But be careful! Don’t let them bite the passengers or you’ll have a grave problem.

People who don't make games will never understand the camaraderie that game developers feel for each other. We're all on the same team. For us, celebrating studios closing is like celebrating your teammates losing a really tough game.
