How many times have you walked into a room and literally everyone was staring at their phone?

“I’ll invest if you find a lead” is the single lamest thing an investor can say.

Web3, Crypto, AI and Blockchain are definitely the themes for September. Our CEO, @micrux, is at the Dubai AI & Web3 Festival this week. And next week, you'll find him at #Token2049Singapore. If you're in the area and fancy catching up, drop him a message. See you there 👋

@bridge__harris @joeykrug Will be there ! 14-24 Sept

roll call for token2049 singapore — @joeykrug and I from FF will be there!

Our crew are heading to #Devcom and #Gamescom next week. And we'd love to see you there. If you're in the area, pop by our stand (courtesy of @servers_com). We're in hall 2.2, A040. Or pop a time in our diary: eu1.hubs.ly/H0bKL9f0 See you next week 👋

We’ve noticed that studios turn to all-in-one solutions for their backend services. But this approach can lead to major issues down the line, like skyrocketing prices or downtime. But if it’s a problem, why do studios do it? Find out: eu1.hubs.ly/H09P2gv0 #GameDev

Fancy a career change? We’re looking for #Engineers to come aboard, who can setup CI/CD pipelines, work on our microservices, and improve our #infrastructure as code (IAC). If this sounds like you, or someone you know, then get in touch: eu1.hubs.ly/H091mHD0 #DevOPsJobs

The multiplayer servers for @Palworld_EN are costing @PocketpairGames about $400,000 a month to run (as seen in @pcgamer ). That’s far too much. Here's how they can save between 50% to 70% on their server costs: gameye.com/blog/how-palwo… #GameDev #IndieDev #GamesIndustry

I don't mind when people are unambitious. It's up to each person to decide that. But it bugs me when the people who aren't ambitious try to bring down those who are.

When people copy you, the best strategy is usually to ignore them. People who copy you are (a) unoriginal and (b) opportunists, and those are both strong predictors of failure. If you wait them out, they'll eventually drop away.

Only a few more days until #Gamescom 2023 👀 Who's heading down this year? Our crew are making their way over, and we'd love to catch up on the latest games and tech. Pop by our stand (we're in hall 2.2, C041), or pop a time in our calendar: bit.ly/3QnNk78

On June 8, 2021, Chivalry 2 launched! We're so proud of the reception we received at launch, the incredible positivity we've seen from players enjoying its many post-launch updates - and there's more fantastic maps, weapons + more to come. Let us know your top Chiv 2 memories!

Things you think as a first time founder that just ain’t so:

When @ChivalryGame released on Xbox Game Pass back in October, they had 711% more peak sessions than ever before. And it all went off without a hitch. Here’s how our automated platform managed to make sure that it all went smoothly: bit.ly/41OTX4A #GameDev #Multiplayer

Before you hit that big red button and launch your game, there's one big question you need to ask yourself: how many #players should we expect? 🤔 Which is a tricky one to figure out and almost impossible to get right. Here's what we know: bit.ly/43MACD6 #GameDev

Massive shoutout to the crew at @OddshotGames. Their game, Slapshot: Rebound! just reached 1 million players 🎉 We're thrilled to be working with such a talented team and helping host such an awesome title. Keep up the excellent work! 👏 gamespress.com/ice-hockey-esp…

Nowadays, players almost take for granted being able to join a match with someone on a different console. But for the #developer, it can be a hassle 🤔 So we chatted with Doborog and @Bungie to get their top tips for bringing #crossplay to your #games: bit.ly/3DyFxvZ

We're excited to announce that we have secured $40M financing, led by @a16z, to create a new AAA game within the EVE Universe utilizing blockchain technology. Learn more here: projectawakening.io
