it is never a better time to support indie and solo devs. the big games industry is not healthy nor sustainable for workers. it has been completely captured by the billionaire class.

I've started a pack for people doing cool or innovative stuff with game narrative. I'll keep adding to it as I remember more amazing games. And as more creators join Bluesky go.bsky.app/8kmdXpP
