Once the excitement of a new game idea has worn off, how do you stay motivated through development?

Community can help! If you’re a developer working in the NYC area, come check us out. The first day of coworking is always free.

It sounds like Gumbcardia by @gumbonyc.bsky.social was a hit at Anime NYC last weekend. Cool to know some Myrtle Grove cards are floating around in the world out there.

Making a whole flowchart for ways to become a @gumbonyc.bsky.social member, and @figma.com is an amazing tool for it!!! Hard to believe how much we've grown that we need something like this...

Was in NYC for about 5 minutes but they were very good minutes!

G4C was wonderful and @gumbonyc.bsky.social threw one of the coolest events I've been to UNDER THE BRIDGE??

Games being showcased to a crowd under the bridge. There are pride flags hung all around the ceiling. A big sign reads DUMBO in the background in teal letters.

My Games for Change badge. It says "Noa Beazley she/her, Composer, independent"

yeahhhh our game is in the Tribeca Games showcase and all, but FIRST @heartmachine.bsky.social is also in the Tribeca x NYFest soccer tournament tomorrow!! Repped by Luqman + Ryan from @gumbonyc.bsky.social to whom I'm eternally grateful (because me playing soccer would be mortifying for everyone).
