I’d love it if you could share this on Player 3 with the community!

Kae So. @iksmith.bsky.social · 12h

Yes! Just straight grinding and self-discovery! Forums weren't around just yet, or weren't as easily accessible unless you had an older friend or family member, lol.

Yes. On my Gameboy color, praying for a streetlight to pass while I'm riding in the backseat of my mom's car.

I was lucky enough to have the small squiggly light, but a bit more lumens never hurt. lol

Pokémon Yellow was the first game I played that I can remember.

What a time.

This is beautiful!
The art looks like it was inspired by the Teenage Robot. That used to be my show!

Do any of you have a favorite game that was created around that time frame?

Thinking ambitiously, what types of rewards, prizes, and benefits would you like?

How long would your ideal game jam be?

What would your categories be for the judge panel?

I very much want this to be community-inspired.

Kae So. @iksmith.bsky.social · 14h

Player 3 will likely host a game jam sometime during the month of February.
Something themed around the nostalgia and the love of 90s/early 2000s gaming.

We hope to give out meaningful rewards and trophies, inspired by the YouTube Play plaque.

Planning the vision...

If you were curious about what Player 3 does, hopefully this helps!

Also, we’ll be adding support for games soon, focusing on a D2C model. This means you’ll earn directly from all of your sells, instead of the money going through the platform!

I have some thoughts on Nintendo & Pokémon's Patent.
As a big fan of the franchise that had such an impact on my childhood, this sucks to see.

Nintendo should be paving the way for game devs... Not destroying it.

Do Better 🙄

There's some really good blogging options.

BearBlog.dev It's a very cool, simple blogging platform, but not game focused

@iksmith.bsky.social here on bsky Just launched player3.io which is game focused. It has lot of cool features, but you can create content and tag it as a DevLog for sure
