Launching a Kickstarter in 2025? Here’s what no one tells you:
1️⃣ Wishlists don’t equal backers.
2️⃣ Your campaign video matters more than you think.
3️⃣ Engagement > Ads.
Kickstarter is about community, not just funding. Got questions? We wanna hear them.

There's something called technical design document (TDD) that most devs may never see or need.
This is a short article about that kind of document to have an idea of what is it about.

HOT TAKE: You don't need a huge ad budget; you need a personality. Players connect with stories, humor, and authenticity—not polished corporate vibes. Spend less time chasing algorithms and more time building a voice that feels human. The community you grow is your best marketing asset. #gamedev

Web3 Gaming: Revolution or Hype?
Web3 can empower players with asset ownership, governance, and real-world value—but trust is key. Studios must prioritize transparency, educate players, and build community. It’s about enhancing, not exploiting. Questions? Let’s chat. #gamedev #indiegamedev

Finally taking some time to go through this Corvian Marketing template. As a dev with no marketing background, it helps me realize what I don’t know. I thought “target audience” just meant “people who like games like BedWars.” The channels and strategies section helped break it down.

If you’ve ever wanted to learn sign language and are attending PAX Unplugged or Dragonmeet soon, look for copies of INSPIRISLES. It’s a groundbreaking ttrpg that teaches ASL and BSL as you play!

I feel like videogames actually do provide a pretty accurate representation of real life right now because a lot of videogames are like “THE WORLD IS ENDING” and then you just collect herbs and pretend nothing is wrong
