Can anyone recommend a “Letterboxd” but for video games?

I'm working on a Wisconsin Game Dev Starter Pack for Bluesky users.

Can you help me by sharing and mentioning anyone that should be added? I'll keep it updated.

Any devs, designers, students, studios, publishers, etc currently working in or from Wisconsin 🐄

Netflix going out after watching 3 hours of build up for the Tyson fight. Then watching someone’s live stream from the event on my phone…terrible ending on all fronts.

Just wrapped up a Q&A session about indie game dev with a local @igda.org chapter in Wisconsin.

I set aside an hour but figured it would run short. Nope. It ran a full two hours 👀

So many great questions!

Go pick this up. I am 💪
I solo developed a game and you can play it right now on the Nintendo Switch!

Omochapon was an RnD game for me to develop a working pipeline and grasp every department of development.

Always learning!

Hey, all! After an awesome UI/UX panel at #mdev (Midwest Game Dev conference), I’m doing an industry Q&A with the UW-Stout @igda.org chapter tonight.

Beyond grateful for the opportunity to share any knowledge I have with folks. 🤘

Had the pleasure of chatting with Greg Posner at Player Engage leading into MDEV on Nov 8.

If you're interested in indie game dev, starting a studio, working on games, or just want to support little ol' me give it a listen and share :)

For all the new folks rolling in to this network.

This time last year Floor is…What!? was signed to a publisher.

2025 is going to be mind blowing 🤯
Crazy to think I had zero #gamedev or publishing experience in 2019.

I made a hard pivot with the pandemic and am so grateful for all the love and support the last few years.

Now, I’ve built a team to help bring my studio’s first original IP, Floor is…What!?, to market in 2023.

Thank you 🙏
