This is my irregular reminder about the Brighton Games Industry starter pack.
Let me know if you want to be added to it, or if you have friends or game companies you feel are missing in it.
And do share around.

If you're on the fence about playing the Mythmatch Demo, I will put this in front of you.
It's easy to convince yourself that you won't enjoy a match-3 game, but you could also find yourself exploring every single nook and cranny of the demo hungry for more.

After each turn in my little chaotic pinball game, you get to pick a new random sticker to add to your dice
Weird things happen when they get hit..
What kinda things I hear you ask? Don’t worry about it 🥰
