This unironically sounds like a great talk as a postmortem once this game is out.

more old work! the development progression of the kingdom screen in desktop dungeons rewind. There's a bunch of nice vfx and animation and such in the final version that obviously isn't captured in a still image. You're all missing out.

Uhhhh Pretty Surreal to see Markiplier staring down our little puppet guy last night! Also very fun to watch him read the entire tool tip for the 1000mg bottle.

Markiplier played our game!! youtu.be/uYneVs6PYKE

It's strange and wonderful to see someone I've been watching since I was like, 12, upload a video of a game I worked on.

Ayy Mr Magpie gets the Silver Medal from @itch.io for the month of March! Second only to @adamatomic.bsky.social's wonderful Prince of Prussia, which is also great and you should play it.

Thank you to everyone who showed up and made Indies Demo Night and Make Games Make Friends an absolute blast!

The turnout of devs from all over our community, the country and the world blew us away.
A crowd of people chatting and playing game demos outside. A crowd of people chatting in a bar. There's a sign that reads "Flat Top Johnny's".

That's a wrap on the very first Boston Gamedev Week! We were totally blown away by how many people showed up to every single event, wore our pins and embraced BGW enthusiastically. Thank you to everyone who took this leap with us, and to all of our incredible organizers. Let's do this again!
A table with several BGW pins, name tags, and a poster that says "this event is brought to you by Boston Game Dev!" A photo from Made in MA. Manny Mallea is holding a frog plushie from the game Frogmageddon in front of a mounted camera. Its big frog face appears on the large screen behind Manny. The Boston Indies Demo Night. A crowd of game devs socializing and playing demos outdoors in the evening. Our Make Games Make Friends event. A crowd gathered indoors is chatting and ordering drinks.
