Valve is right in that Pokemon cards etc are gambling for children and they should have been regulated a long time ago.
The fact that some European countries regulated lootbox in games but not TCGs was at the very best an oversight.

Also not at GDC (or willing to enter that country anytime soon) but here's #WhatAGameDevLooksLike.

Game design by trade for 11 years, ran a board game company for 6, now a tiny indie operation exploring weird interactive spaces like billiards roguelikes, self-playing decks, or Wikipedia challenges.

Wireworks is a cute fun auto-battler. Enjoyed putting together this ultra-healing pet army build. :)

A big draw of the game-design-by-A/B-testing type thinking is that it absolves you from having to form your own opinions & taste. It allows you to outsource the most difficult part of any creative endeavour: actually believing in your vision.

Steam Developer: Ludokultur Hi, I'm Fabian! As an indie dev, I like to explore unusual interactive spaces, such as billiards dungeon crawlers, self-playing decks of cards, or Wikipedia guesstimation challenges.

So we can have tiled backgrounds on Steam developer pages now? What is this, the 21st century or something?

I really like this feeling when a game you made transforms
from
"I'm making this, should XYZ be different? I should move this button 3 pixels to the left."
to
"This is a game that was made, it is what it is, it's now this artifact in the world and it's cool."

Highly recommended! Short runs, think-on-your-feet synergy building, "one more turn" vibe, plus fun cute dwarves.

"The soft logic of generative AI is too much like the soft logic of other people. Other people aren’t intrinsically fun. They’re sacred and profound and fascinating and beautiful but they aren’t, by themselves, fun. That’s why we have games!"
