It took way too long to respond to something with oops my bad.

Vertical Slice@verticalslice.news

Update: Freeplay responds after dropping Unpacking developer as a sponsor over "Zionist" allegations In a lengthy statement sent to Vertical Slice and shared online, event organisers said they regret how "aspects of the process" played out and intend to seek discussions with "all affected parties."

Unfortunately, it’s on every major outlet. Vertical Slice has already been a breath of fresh air.

Opinion: Xbox already has a marketing team and (unless I'm mistaken) journalists are not on its payroll A conveyer belt of toothless Asha Sharma profiles have shown one thing: reporters who get access must do better

I want to try something out! 🙌 Is your indie game going to be in this week’s Steam Next Fest? Drop that link in the thread! 🔗⬇️

My game, Bonkhope, for @play.date Season 3 released yesterday! It’s a turn-based combat roguelike with gravity. Thank you Panic for having me return and thank you to everyone who played already and said nice stuff about it!

HAHA Thank You Bus Driver is so good. The satisfaction of slapping bad passengers is brilliant. My father was a bus driver. He would have smacked the heck out of these weirdos. XD

Here is an example of the bonkers emails I get daily.

Sey | Good Game Lobby@goodgamelobby.com

Okay, I have lost all patience. These AI emails from small developers and studios are atrocious. It's bad enough that I constantly get emails from PR shooting from the hip, but this is next-level stupidity. Working on a game for years to throw it all away because of what? Laziness?

Seeing the photos of people receiving @continuemag.bsky.social is rearranging my brain. For so long it was just something that lived in my head and on the screen. Now it's real and physical and people are reading it. 🥹

Hey Good Game Lobby! I love that you support indie games. I just recently wrapped up development on mine. DONE. THAT'S IT. THAT'S THE EMAIL. STOP TRYING TO PRETEND YOU KNOW WHO I AM.

I think one of my favorite parts of these showcases was watching with my son become inspired by the design work. He would run away from the video draw something then watch more over and over. ❤️
