Just had someone leave a nice comment on one of my games on Itch. I cannot tell you how much a kind comment will keep me going for weeks!

Game design can be a very solitary endeavor, so it's genuinely helpful to know people are enjoying these labors of love.

Still relevant.
Tomorrow I am releasing a game.

Meanwhile, my government is killing and kidnapping our neighbors, starting pointless wars, protecting pedophiles, censoring the media, and feeding megacorporations' bank accounts instead of the poor.

It’s easy to feel like there’s no point.

I know it's only about halfway through Thursday, but it's been a great first week for Bite the Hand! Number 1 physical game on Itch for waaaay longer than I ever thought was possible, and initial reactions have been so positive. Can't wait to hear stories from your tables!

You really need to check this out. Seriously, we had @spellbookgaming.itch.io on our stream a bit ago showing us the game, and it was fantastic.

Don't believe me? Here's our video and thoughts:

But the really, really, really, REALLY important thing to remember, when it comes time for you to make or run your own game, is that it is not and should not be everything for everyone. The things your game is NOT matter every bit as much as what it is, and if it's everything, mediocre is your apex

this is so true! when we see bumps in a title's sales, lots of times we can connect the dots back to a review or interview on YouTube or TikTok. A quick mention can make a big difference!
A 30-second mention of one of my games, deep into the 13:10 mark of a ~30k-view YouTube video, is able to do this.

I'm thankful to everyone that decides to share the spotlight with smaller creators; you have no idea the difference you can make in our lives 💞
