Random person who plays indie games, you are the most important cog in an indie game's success.
Most gamers don't know or care that indies exist.... unless a friend tells them.
Our games succeed because you tell other people you liked our game. Word of mouth is the best marketing there is.

Is it just me, or does Facebook Marketplace especially suck in Vancouver? Even the region specific buy/sell groups rarely seem to have successful movement?

It’s difficult to process how useless of a mayor Ken Sims has been. I knew he’d be bad & was frustrated when voter turnout was at an all time low for that election, but he somehow managed to surpass my expectations regarding just HOW horrible he’d be.
Him & ABC should be absolutely ashamed.

Mayor Ken Sim + ABC councillors plan to cut major climate action programs. For 35 years, Vancouver has been a global leader in local climate action — starting with the 1990 Clouds of Change report. 🌱

this was a business discovery to us! we wondered for ages why our subscriber base wasn't matching broader games media reading patterns; when we asked around, turns out loads of europeans simply don't like using credit cards.
hopefully this is an improvement!

A lot of people also don’t seem to understand that ‘the economy’ was previously more attached to the ‘average day to day experience’? This is far less true these days.
‘The Economy’ can still be doing great ‘on paper’ when massive amounts of people are struggling or destitute.

i think the main thing a lot of you “the economy is better than it’s ever been” types are failing to grasp is that it really—and i mean REALLY—makes it look like you don’t give a shit about poor people.
