thank you Nina for this article! a lot of really great points in here. regarding the player's creativity in SongRunner, i absolutely agree that it's incredibly difficult to foster true creativity AND have a tightly designed game at the same time. (1/6)

On @somanygames.co.uk, find out how @mattgoode.bsky.social's Song Runner contends with the cursed problem (in @blinkity.bsky.social's sense) of gamified creativity. There's also a shout out to @greg.style's GDC talk about Chicory: A Colorful Tale. somanygames.co.uk/articles/son...

been playing and enjoying the heck out of moonlighter 2 and reading some of the top steam reviews i feel like im losing my mind. this is a fantastic game with some really interesting decisions and systems. i forgot how fun it was in moonlighter 1 to squeeze every coin possible out of a dungeon run.

just coming back to this to say oh my god how do people actually make this work?! i imagine outlets and creators get inconceivable amounts of spam but reaching out to people has been similar vibes to applying to dozens of jobs without a single response.

reaching out to small creators/outlets and asking them to check out my demo please release my soul from this personal hell #indiedev #solodev #godot

been dealing with a lot of internal struggles with SongRunner. working on a sort of "act 1 finale" type of thing. i knew this was going to be a hard one because im putting a lot of pressure on myself to make it very memorable and unique. my feelings toward the game are changing over time. not
