Just a reminder to all the indie devs: You can just post a link to your game when you mention it. In fact, attaching a link and thumbnail beneath doesn't even add to the character count. This isn't Twitter. You won't be suffocated in your sleep by the algorithm here. There is no algorithm here.

This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins.

Retrospecs v4 will be a thing then I guess. Probably. πŸ€” It’s not quite at the beta stage yet, but it’s up and running using the reworked engine that I’ve been slowly picking away at on and off over the last year or so.

with some of these game shutdowns i wonder if they might consider licensing out the assets, brand, etc for someone else to operate, with a revsplit in compensation. sure maybe mandate some rebranding or whatever to protect your own IP, sure. but someone else could run it and make a profit for you.

We're a no-Roblox household. The kids do get frustrated that their friends are playing it and they're not allowed to. One day, they might understand but in the meantime I'm happy to take the parent hit.
