Top games marketing tip : If you want to quickly undermine the several months of time and effort you've spent making your game, just knock up a quick chatGTP Steam capsule for your Next Fest demo to ensure no one clicks on it.

Seems to me that the fact that interested people can’t find games they find interesting and maybe don’t even know they exist is (a) obvs true so dunking on it is dumb and (b) a massive fucking problem for the artform that the corporate sector of the industry has no interest *at all* in solving

After a year of work I've finally released my adventure game. It's called Maura and Ash, and it's designed for MS-DOS. You can download it or play it in the browser right now!

I'm seeing people soapbox on how the Chinese localisation for Silksong is bad & bombing reviews, and that it's a lesson in making sure you get loc right etc.

Not seeing many look into the absolutely incredible and more interesting story about *why* it's bad
