Looking at the winners at #GoldenJoystickAdwards and I like that Indie has two categories self-published and the other (Im assuming) is more for indies with a large(-ish?) publisher. Feel like this is a fair way to do things #gamedev #indiedev

highly recommend checking out @kagi.com for search. I see a few hits that might be what you are looking for. IMO the time saved siftting through results is worth the price. link from the results: www.gamedev.net/tutorials/pr...

So #gamedev #indiedev, working on a wireframe, need some feedback. This panel is fairly important to the core loop: game has a leaderboard feature with social elements (think wordle x gears). if you arent in top 10 to inspire you to play again (should you choose, not shamed into). both states 🧵
