"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!

Don't Nod's Aphelion isn't just one of the best sci-fi games I've played, but one of the best sci-fi stories I've experienced in any medium. I cried, and I deeply cared about both Thomas and Ariane, no matter how tragic their situation was. My review for @butwhytho.net👇🏾👇🏾

Aphelion Review: Don't Nod's Latest Is One Of The Best Pieces of Sci-Fi In Any Medium

Aphelion is a small game that hits hard with big emotions by embracing the very best elements of science fiction.

Meredith saying something I’ve spent a lot of the last couple years thinking about:

A blog post screen cap that reads:
But GDC took a chunk out of me, too. The expense, the scamminess, the
desperation. I have not quite recovered.
What I've seen makes me want to keep my life small and focused, make work by any means necessary on shoestring budgets and ignore the industry completely. I think for me, for now, that's how it needs to be. It's not like the industry has any answers or knows what is next.
It's not like I see myself in the majority of these quickly-vanishing roles. Maybe my small, focused world is all there ever was.
