Prototyping is essential for any game development process, but making prototypes you treat as standalone game experiences can help get ideas out quickly and refine your designer brain! What game idea do you want to prototype? #indiegamedev #prototyping #gamedesign

Don’t shoot for perfection! These are the kinds of phrases we hear often, but it’s also helpful to understand what to say instead - chasing imperfection opens the door to so much more than we realize! #indiegamedev #perfectionism #narrativegames

Revisiting the second game made last year: Doppelspeak! This was an ambitious take on tense conversations in relationships. What people say is not always what they mean, and I wanted to explore that concept in Doppelspeak. Wishlist Imagine We Were Human On Steam! #indiegamedev #narrativegame

Happy Friday! This week’s game and book recap features my favorite genre lately: detective mysteries 🔍 The Rise of The Golden Idol + The Moving Finger are both short yet thrilling work that filled my craving for a good head-scratching puzzle. #indiegamedev #riseofthegoldenidol #agathachristie
