sharing this post one last time before letting it vanish into the social media void forever 😌 in it i talk about how local communities are a source of hope and resilience in the midst of all The Bad. keeping the true spirit of indie games alive.

i just published a post about my time at @glasgowindiegamesfest.org "When you strip back the commercialism, the urge to “sell”, and with that remove all the predatory behavior capitalism encourages… you are left with something human that creates the groundwork for games to be relevant to everyone."

So frustrating to see so many gamers say "this isn't a problem, no one refunds games unless they actually don't like them". I've heard from more than one publisher that they would never consider a game less than 3-4 hours because of the refund window. www.reddit.com/r/gaming/com...

From the gaming community on Reddit: Dev tells Valve to fix Steam's exploitable 2-hour refund policy as "over 55,000" players refund his short game and even brag about it in reviews

I went to the countryside and did a little game jam last weekend. Finally got around to make a proper game out of all the oscilloscope stuff I got figured out years ago. This is snek, two player versus, one button per player. Eat the other players tail to win.
