HOW TO GET GIGS AS A FREELANCER!? 🔥💦

This was cathartic to write and hope it's relatable and helpful❤️

THIS!
This is something I'm tired of telling people.
In videogames, there's this notion of working always on crunch even if it's not needed.
From the production side it is really hard to make people understand that they are underperforming doing that.
Rest, have a life, and you'll work better!

Y los devs son majissimos, lo que le sube el stat de carisma al juego.

Con ganas de jugarlo hoy!

Muy buen video!

A timeline visually representing the advice from my post, emphasising how dramatically and reliably having more time, with a testable build, converts to your game being better and your studio being safer.

I've been running an indie games studio for 15 years now, and it felt like a good time to boil down what I've learned into 4 pieces of advice:

I hope it's of use, not least because goddamn I forgot how long blog posts take to write.

💵 MONEY for GAME? In 2026??? 💵

There have been more and more successful-game-devs-turned-game-funders popping up, so here's a lil' thread of some of the more recent ones I've seen.

Hopefully this helps you get some $$$! 🔽

Valve HQ:

"AAA game about murdering a lot of Muslims and destroying their homes" "ship it"
"solo game in which you fight the IDF" "ban the savages"
"indie game that criticizes Western power dynamics with a horse metaphor" "unacceptable"
"This review hates Muslims" "ahh smell that thats freedom"

We sellin' 🎉

Let's talk about it! 🐙👇

As viral hits like Escape from Duckov and Megabonk change the industry, Falconeer developer Tomas Sala has found another way to survive What if you didn't have to spin the roulette wheel every time you released a new game, hoping for it to find an audience? What if there was a better way?

Sat down for a lovely chat with @clert.bsky.social over @eurogamer.bsky.social To talk about my games and how I'd like to keep making and improving them sustainably. To step away from the launch, meme and hype driven madness that has taken root in games.

What's your number one personal game design principle? And even better - does it have a cool name?

I think it should remain possible to work professionally on video games without having to move

It's time to Panik!

It's been great to have time to work on portfolio and personal projects tho 🤣

I got a call from a recruiter to apply to an opportunity "because I am the perfect fit".
And got rejected by an automated email the next day.
I'm starting to think that there's a scam going on and there's really no jobs in the game's industry 🤡

I was going to do an update of how my process of looking for a job is going.
But this sums it up:

Congrats!! 🎉🎉 I will save the date!

Thinking about Silksong. There is a Law of the Sea that states when two ships intersect, the larger ship has the right of way. Due to mass, momentum, maneuverability, it's the responsibility of smaller ships to get out the way. Being a ship that big, I think it's important to broadcast your intent.

Me and Albert in front of the big head of the sheep protagonist from Cult of the Lamb. I might be threatening him with a prop sword, and he looks scared.

Weeell, Gamescom has ended....sadly.
It was my first and it was a blast! The event is sooOoo BIG. The only thing I regret is not talking to even more devs.
I've met incredible people, and it's always great to see the reaction to NetherWorld. I hope I can be there next year too!
