Ruby Ursus | Sulo the Sidekick 🐻

Yeah, it would be a whole different story if your livelihood depended on the game’s success. Either way, you’ll learn something at every step, and you’ll know a lot more when you start the next project. As long as you still love the game, it’s worth it. And unfinished game would haunt me forever 😄

Finish the demo and see how it goes 😊 I know that you've had some successful demo days already, so I believe it's not too much of work left for proper demo. At least you'll get feedback on gameplay that way and reach some nice milestone

Global Game Jam Jammer Spotlight: Jezza Roddy, Japan | Global Game Jam “The Next Great IP Game Jam seemed like a very good opportunity to actually think through a real franchise or series, rather than just make one single game,” Jezza says.

Super honored to be featured on @globalgamejam's Community Spotlight! Thank you all so much!

Sounds like a solid plan! I bet your Eureka moment is just around the corner

Cool frames! Are you sure you're not just being too critical of yourself? 😅

I keep hearing how important Steam fests are for visibility and now I get it.
Sulo the Sidekick just entered its very first one, Finnish Games Week, and the wishlist spike is REAL!

What upcoming Steam festivals should I apply Sulo to next?

Remeber to be realistic and kind to yourself, can't do everything perfectly 😅 Otherwise burnout will take care of you

You're really riding the wave then! I hope the initial boost from the FGW carries you well through the next fest 💪 I wasn't ready for the next fest just yet

Whole new world is about to open to you! Chris is legend.

Most doesn't! They usually have their own apply form deep in their own sites. I know that howtomarketagame.com newsletter keeps you quite well up to date, but it still doesn't show every possible fest. Like Finnish Games Week was so niche that it wasn't there, but still made it to the front page!
