The Video Game History Expansion Pack โ€“ Pitch your story Today Iโ€™m putting my money where my mouth is and launching a new project โ€” a book focused on game history outside of the usual North American perspectives.

So, today I'm announcing a new book project... and doing a call for papers: crpgbook.wordpress.com/2025/10/31/t...

It's an anthology of video game history outside the usual US perspective - an accessible & exciting panorama of different realities - and I'll pay 300 USD per article.

Please share :)

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Indie game devs! Worried you don't have a good publishing deal? May I present my firm's 2025 Publishing Agreement Data Report! Taken from 100+ actual Publishing Agreements ranging from 2017-2025, providing averages for rev share splits, advances, IP ownership and more!

Great stuff! Thank you.
Would love to see a comparison of the data when considering only the last 3 years

Key art for Moonglow Bay. it's a sweeping view of the bay, including its lighthouse. On the sea there's an yellow and white boat with a mother fishing, a daughter pointing at pink flying fish and a dog happily watching. In the foreground there's a hidden raccoon eating a cookie.

The best order of operations for any mid-scope indie game that requires funding is:

- Build it quickly & quietly assuming you'll self-publish
- Pitch to everyone
- If unsuccessful, put out a store page & start marketing
- If successful, publishers will come back to you
- If not, continue as-is
