To sum up our year, @igda.org, how about our biggest District Arcade ever? 500+ attendees and 35 locally-made games. Game developers in D.C., Maryland, and Virginia: we host at least two in-person meetups every month. Come hang out!

A photo of the crowd from our annual District Arcade. This year we held it at the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library in D.C., a much bigger space than we've been at before, and it was PACKED. 35 locally made video games and there were times when you couldn't walk across the huge space for all the people there. Exciting stuff.

PAX East was a tornado. Watching someone enjoy the game and discussing it with them is a feeling unlike any other and reminds us why we decided to create games. Thank you.

How do you introduce a mechanic to the player? I hate tutorials so am always looking into diagetic, innovative ways to do so. In Sunset High we use a short story to try to hint at players they now have temporal powers. erraticunicorn.substack.com/p/the-advent... #flashfiction #shortstory
