Hi everyone, I'm urgently looking for any work. I'm a writer and narrative designer, I offer game consultations and mock reviews, I localise between German and English, I can write copy. If it needs words, I'll do it! Here's some games I've written on in the past:
NOBODY TALK TO ME IT'S LUMINES ARISE DAY
I took the day off (unemployed)
I cleared my calendar (nothing on it)

I currently have no idea how to go on. I unexpectedly owe someone a large sum of money, I can't find a way to keep doing the job I love, my mentor fucked off from one day to the other. Today a friend said to me "you can't just do nothing" and I couldn't convey how the motor just isn't running

Thank you Chantal for speaking up! Like she said, many ppl, especially marginalised devs, feel they can't afford to, so I'm hrateful for her courage
I was a member of TGA Future Class 2022 and lemmee tell ya, my skin has been crawling since
pretty much every interaction I had with them (few) & story I heard about other members' interactions with them (many) was bad. & by bad I mean, so many shades of being used as photo op tokens & nothing more

EXCLUSIVE on @gamedeveloper.bsky.social: not only has The Game Awards not nominated a Future Class for 2025, it's told alumni it "does not have any active programming plans" for the award.
The Future Class page was taken down sometime this year—eliminating a definitive archive of honorees.

I LOVE shows like the Netflix cheerleading stuff or Pop Star Academy, but it's sth else to be working class and hear an 18yr old who's had professional dance lessons since age 3 say you choose whether you wanna be mediocre or not

every game review should be written by somebody who doesn’t just hate that specific genre but the very idea of games itself

It's cool how we keep proving over and over and over again that there's a significant market for narrative-heavy, character-driven, single-player experiences in video games and publishers just categorically refuse to believe us

Do you know about a game being developed or maybe released right now that aims to do something good for society while being firmly in the entertainment game space, engaging as hell? We're curious to find peers #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev
