Yesterday I took part in the Very Big Indie Pitch at @pocketgamercom.bsky.social in London, and WE WON 1ST PLACE! 😱

Pitching this game in 5 minutes is definitely a challenge, and huge props to everyone who took part 👏

What a way to kick off the year!!! 🤩

Absolutely I would never work in another industry, although it is volatile, it does motivate me to build something better than what was left for us 🫶

The gaming industry is tough as hell right now, but I have to take a step back and realise I get to live my dream every single day. Silver Script Games is slowly growing as we keep working hard on our game The Quiet Things. Thank you everyone who continues to support us ❤️

It's an insane bucket list to be here for #TheGameAwards ✨ Being part of Future Class, in LA for the first time, the atmosphere, around so many who are excited and passionate about games, is just wonderful!
So many games that are part of my journey in the industry, so special 💖😭

What an evening! Last week we won the Innovation in Games Awards at the #BarclaysEA24. The awards was hosted by Sara Davies (Dragon's Den) ✨

Can't thank everyone enough for such a special night, it means a huge amount to us, as a tiny team trying to do big things 💖

"It's the games industry, it's about art, it's about passion, you can't do it without that"

A very emotional screening of the documentary showing the making of #STALKER2. These devs really deserve the world, they've gone through horrific experiences and just want to do good 🫶

This is really so awesome, but the best thing about awards like this is spending time with all the other people doing amazing things in the industry and celebrating all of our work. Thank you so much to the judges for choosing us and to all our friends we got to celebrate with 💖

The Quiet Things 🎮 An Autobiographical Game @silverscriptgames.bsky.social · Nov 29

Last night was a real whirlwind. We were chosen as winners of the Innovation in Games Award!!! It was really not expected as we're such a small team and working on a fairly niche game, but isn't it wonderful there's a place for us to be recognised too at awards like this 🥹🎉
