2025 was the first year where I worked full-time as a social media manager in the game industry.
Learned a loot this year, here are some key lessons ๐

Also thinking about starting a Minecraft Patreon to be able to monetize my reach on TikTok, Pinterest, Insta and Youtube better. So I can dedicate more time towards Minecraft vids :)

So yea, learned a lot, hope it's useful to devs or SMM!
2026 I'm looking forward to:
- further growing @smks-studios.bsky.social
- getting 6side to a solid baseline with what I learned
- upload at least 1x a month on my Minecraft channel, strengthen and build my community through that regularity

With all that success not everything was rosy tho. I'm working for 6side Studio too, and there views are still not good, despite a great prototype.
- if early in dev, don't overpromise in videos - be transparent
- always keep the game vibe and expectations of players in mind

Barely had time for my Minecraft channel, but had my biggest viral hits across Reddit, Pinterest and Youtube this year.
- break with expectations to stick out
- 2026 image carousels will be on all shortform-video platforms (including Youtube)
- recycling content across platforms can multiply reach

Probably my highlight was my work for @smks-studios.bsky.social !
- replying to comments with videos is a great way to make the community feel seen!
- absurdist hooks can stop the scroll ("this is how our bird used to die")
- establish content pillars but leave room for exploration

Don't get me wrong, I like Expedition 33 and agree they deserve most of their awards, but it feels like awarding best indie game to multi-million budget games is meant to water down what the term means so EA, Activision and other big publishers can start releasing their "indies"

Yeah 34+ people plus outsourcing & publishing doesnโt feel very indie to me either

Thank you so much for taking the time to ask your partner, that's super good to know :D
