Pro Tip: If you create a video game to 75%+ completion all on your own and suddenly a publisher wants to "publish" it for you, thats not a publisher thats a thief. Run.

Also be careful of marketing "partners" make sure you get proven metrics & understand what you are trading.

The Xbox 360 succeeded because we focused on what gamers and game developers wanted.

Not what publishers wanted. Not building a “something-else killer”. Not what Windows wanted. We enabled game developers to make great games people wanted to play.
20 years ago today Xbox 360 launched. The power was never the console - it was you. You camped out at midnight, built lasting communities, and showed us what gaming could mean. You made that generation endure for two decades. Thank you.

I went way out of my comfort zone to create this album -took me several months in evenings to finish it. I'm nervous sharing it because it has been a private creation for so long, but here it is. I hope the story brings at least 1 person joy. #indiedev #music

I understand why it exists, but I LOATH playing fighting games online. They were never meant for that. I rarely play them anymore even though it is one of my favorite genres. Its somewhat ok-ish if there is no other choice.

Shoulder to shoulder is the only way.

Fight me.

Im not going to share # 's, but Volgarr I, a 10yr old game is still out performing Volgarr II, came out last year. If you're a fan of the games, I'd like your help in figuring out what you believe I did wrong that caused this? Honesty counts. I need to fix this before the "next" thing. #indiedev ❤️

I think I might be in danger of taking my gaming snack too far while playing #Battlefield6 😅

It would have been really awesome if Volgarr II reached 100 reviews on Steam. That would make me super happy. Even if its not your favorite game I would love to hear from you. Please share this with your friends. :) #indiedev #pixelart

Volgarr the Viking II for $10 on Xbox, ehh? Rise again warrior! MOAR Totally NOT Rastan Saga except with those design sensibilities from 3DS Shinobi (2011); makes sense as Crazy Viking Studios was founded by some of the ex-Griptonite staff behind that game.
Volgarr the Viking II is $9.99 on XBL buff.ly/TfMT4Qg

Obscure 2D arcade brawler send-up Volgarr the Viking. It's like if you mixed God of War with Ghosts & Goblins, viciously difficult & high-APM for what it is.

Fun fact, i never finished Volgarr the Viking and I'm still pretty satisfied with the purchase.

Its okay if a game ends up being too much for you. There no shame in leaving it unfinished once you had enough.

"One" of the greatest aspirations you should have for yourself (as there should be many), and this is one of the hardest in life to achieve, is to have the kind of work (or thing that brings you a paycheck) you look forward to springing out of bed to work on. 1/3

1st car I ever bought with my own money when I was in the Army. I sure do miss it.
