Possible causes of your problems. It’s a diagram that (sadly) still seems relevant in 2025, so reposting a year and a bit on.

Hi, my game just released. It's about the life of a single mother, as seen through the eyes of her child.

If you like small passion projects, it would mean a lot to me for you to check it out, share it and review it.

Been trying to get the keyframes down for a “cut grass” animation, and I must look crazy because I’m frequently miming swinging a golf club at my desk. Also this is my progress so far 😆

Cannot get over how fantastic @glasgowindiegamesfest.org was! The vibes were immaculate and it was amazing to be showcasing amongst so many stellar games 😎 ✨

Here's a chaotic video of me screaming cause our game was on the big screen. Thank you to everyone who had a go at our little plant puzzler!

Funding a game can be hard, especially if you’re a gender marginalized developer without traditional industry access.

This is why our $50K WINGS Elevate Program exists!
To help early-stage teams get pitch-ready ✅🔥

Submit by Aug 30!
