Gina (@ginaloughlin.com) wrapped on Mythmatch over the break!

Her music absolutely sets the tone for every place and moment in the game. She was so incredibly versatile and covered so many types of music from cozy themes to rock to sea shanties!
Mythmatch is getting to the point where some folks are wrapping up their tasks and also, others wrapped long ago, but I'm only realizing now. So I'm going to quote tweet this post to talk about them.

But if you see this, you can see their work in action here:

A Greek mythology anti-capitalist merge game about the power of community over authority. Challenge the Gods. Inspire the Mortals. Rebuild Ithaca.

proud to report that Rift Riff earned enough to break-even its development costs! it's currently at ±€130k net from Steam, App Store, and Google Play.

Rift Riff team members share in the game's profit, so the money that continues to trickle in is also theirs <3

📢 GLIFF GLAUGH GLOOOOOVE 📢

this was an absolutely bizarre brief but I had soooooo much fun with it!! we will all be Glorf!!! 🛸
Years ago I invented "Glorf", an idea which evolved into a weird body/horror/comedy automation game me and @rothiotome.bsky.social batted around.

In Wax Heads, it's now a kids film and so I asked @ginaloughlin.com to make a song for its OST.

Here is that song (along with old GLORF concept art 😂)

FLY THAT FLAG HIGH
The big takeaways from my predictions issue for game devs are:

- Indies who are gen AI free should fly that flag high, as Steam is going to filled with slop this year.

- If you're a games studio with opinions on AI, unless you have done something people will actually like, just shut up.
We're kicking 2026 into high gear with a newsletter issue on predictions for AI in the games industry this year.

It covers the big issues we expect to see in the next 12 months. Including a prediction of 7000 AI-tagged games on Steam - which is not great.

🚨 CONTENT COMPLETE 🚨

With this final bear hug with Telemachus, Mythmatch is officially content complete! We'll just be doing final QA and bug fixing and hopefully it won't be too long until it's in all of your hands.

If you want to get a head start, the demo save will carry over to the full game!

I'm launching my first newsletter next week! 🎉

Various topics alongside the theme of✨ Freelancing✨ will be covered, and the very first post is about the BASICS

Stuff you should do before jumping into the world of independent work (don't worry, it's never too late).

Here's a quick sneak peak!

As part of the Draknek New Voices Puzzle Grant I mentored this developer on The Detective's Apprentice last year, and I'm incredibly proud and excited for this game 🤩💖

It scratches a real puzzle itch with complex but incredibly satisfying cases. It's something special and one to watch, for sure.
The Detective's Apprentice demo is out now! Sharpen your deduction skills and uncover Cleo's beginnings, as she solves her first three cases.

Play it now on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/4159750/...
