Dev Dream Pod with Blake Gocey

@JonasTyroller told me something very surprising. Fantasy is more important than fun. youtu.be/DB1MtT5ceZY?is… #gamedev

@skunx_rik @KettuGames @EracuStudios Yea its live as of the last two or three weeks.

@KettuGames @EracuStudios Is this rolled out everywhere already? Last time I looked I couldn't find it and when we released our last game in may it was still working the old way.

Hi devs! My next game, Professional Chef, is launching with this many wishlists. Am I crazy, or are wishlists a bit overrated? #indiedev #gamedev #professionalchef

"It was a Discord message from a random account being like, 'Hey kid, want to make games?' I was extremely skeptical." An insane story from @HolyCowCreates Full Convo: youtu.be/Z5cj_kROUws

"They never gave me a pay raise... I was managing a team of 10 engineers and 15 designers... and I was still getting paid college wages. They burned me out like is very common for the games industry." @HolyCowCreates Full convo: youtu.be/Z5cj_kROUws

@thomasbrushdev A super cool dream! I'd probably want a break after 5 long years of dev as well haha

My dream is to take a break from game dev and make my first full length horror film. Fingers crossed

“The lack of actual good game design and actually interesting mechanics is where the problem is. I don’t think incrementals are dead or less profitable. I think the bar for entry is getting higher — which it should.” @LeGingerGamer Agree or disagree? youtu.be/PXwVhe_FBU4

“Next Fest mentally buggered me. We got a thousand wishlists, which compared to most games was good — but compared to people making similar games, we absolutely died. It was a harsh lesson to learn.” @LeGingerGamer youtu.be/PXwVhe_FBU4

Game devs: why do so many unreal engine games have "that look"

@thomasbrushdev @samyam_youtube Once again, beat ya to it 😉

@samyam_youtube Podcast? Thomas at fulltimegamedev dot com

“This is the first time where I’ve taken a shot on myself. I needed a life change, and this was my way out.” @LeGingerGamer See the full convo here youtu.be/PXwVhe_FBU4

“Do not show your games to your friends you've grown up with. They are useless.” @LeGingerGamer #indiegamedev See the full convo here youtu.be/PXwVhe_FBU4

If you had infinite art and programming skills what video game would you make? AKA what is your dream game?

@Zoroarts It's at least impressive you drummed up such a conversation lol. Literally has overtaken the game dev X o sphere lol. It's my first week on here and seems wild

I think im now the most hated Gamedeveloper in the Indie Space 😬 The amount of hateful DMs I got after my Tweet was pretty crazy tbh 😅

@thomasbrushdev @UnityCodeMonkey Also, idk if he is active here or not but I connected with him via his public email so maybe try that contact@unitycodemonkey.com

@UnityCodeMonkey when are you coming on the podcast

@thomasbrushdev @UnityCodeMonkey He's one of the best :) - a great interviewee too not just a good coder

@andre_mc Received! I'll take a look at my schedule and get back to you tomorrow

@devdreampod Or better yet, sent a mail to the podcast

100,000 WISHLISTS!! 🥹😭 Your support means everything to me, and this is something I always dreamed about! I will use all this incredible energy to continue doing my best with this game!

@andre_mc Amazing! Do you have an email I can use to connect with you?

@devdreampod Thanks!! Let’s do it!!

"This anti-a.i. stance is not sustainable for game devs" @gogwilt Agree or disagree? See the full convo here: youtu.be/jOUNKlDTJ1g
