I went for a walk today, and I've never seen this level of respect as a pedestrian from cars before. I wonder what made the difference today. Anyway, here's #whatagamedevlookslike

This is my very late #WhatAGameDevLooksLike entry! 🥰

Last week, I was in Oslo for a meet-up at the office, and we took some headshots. I haven't done this in years and didn't know what to do so I just... smiled...

I'm HaZ, currently deep in development on my debut indie game to be announced in a few days time. If you like sci-fi bullet hell spaceship side-scrolling shoot-em-ups, then stick around and you will see lots of gameplay footage and info coming soon! #WhatAGameDevLooksLike

I posted a picture for the whatagamedevlookslike hashtag once over on the hell site, a little while after I joined the Classic Team. I thought that I passed reasonably well and looked cute.

Some Transphobes over in Germany picked it up and made fun of it, me, and my job.

Time for a re-intro... Hi everyone! My name is John. After 18 years as a software engineer (Microsoft/MapQuest/Uber) I am pursuing my solo #gamedev dream. I am making a turn based tactical football RPG set in a fantasy Queendom. So, at the ripe age of 40 this is #WhatAGameDevLooksLike

I guess there is likely exceptions to this, and its probably not a hard and fast rule but I genuinely full-body cringe when I see someone who is blatantly WhatAGameDevLooksLike according to everyone using that hashtag

Better late than never for #whatagamedevlookslike I didn’t get a ton of pictures at GDC this year but I’m proud of this one for the accomplishments and lessons it represents to me.

Here I am saying Hey listen! to a team of people who deeply appreciate a good tutorial at the start of the week.

Every year I see it, and I'm going to yell about it: #WhatAGameDevLooksLike is not for cis white dudes. After all, that is what people think game devs look like lol.

I'm grateful to have found so many new friends in this industry like the AMAZING @arka2arka9.bsky.social!

For a long time I didn't feel I was "allowed" to call myself a gamer, let alone a game dev... but initiatives like #WhatAGameDevLooksLike have shown me that I'm right where I belong! 💖 #GDC25

Hi! Just got back from GDC, had a great time.
I've been making games since 2020 and I feel like a witch doing black magic ever since (but I am more like a cinnamon bun with golden retriever energy, I would say) #WhatAGameDevLooksLike

Thank you all for a great #gdc2025 ! The work we've been able to pull of is nothing short of miraculous. This is the most important and impressive organizing effort I've ever been a part of.
