All I can think is that an commercial had either funny jokes or catchy jingles, there was a pretense at romancing the consumer. Now it's just "we know what this is" no jingle no joke

Doggy swirls in the snow. Funny when people tell us they're concerned about Marduk being left out in the cold. Don't worry, he's can use the dog door whenever he pleases. Also, is husky XD

I enjoyed Aaron Blaise's "Snow Bear" so much it brought up a lot of appreciate and nostalgia for his work in general. I'm always captivated by stories that can be told by little to no words. #aaronblaise #snowbear #animation #beautyandthebeast #visualstorytelling

I've been working on getting my demo ready, and I'm still wondering how to end it in a way that leave the player interested. That's what I have so far, what do you all think?

Do you LISTEN TO your player feedback?!
YouTube video by Otter Make Games Inc. Do you LISTEN TO your player feedback?!

Do you hear your players or listen to them? Not just the literal words but what the base instinct for fun deep down inside in each player that's, sometimes, frustratedly trying to get to your ears. #indiegamedev #solodev #playerfeedback #dog
