Very kind of you ☺️ I feel right at home

I'm back in Brisbane again! This time for Queensland Games Festival 😊

Your space for all things game dev, zines, art, and more in Naarm.

A place that belongs to everyone, where everyone can belong.

Come to Sabby!

👀👀👀 thank you

I tried it at the last GGJ and it was... Pretty good actually!

It’s Technically Games road trip time!

Every good road trip requires at least 1 flat tyre, I hope

If you missed me in Canberra I'll be back through on the 1st of March

A map showing the icon for a Neutral Faction in a castle.

Dev Update - Neutral Factions!
Maps now have a chance of including a castle controlled by a Neutral Faction. These soldiers don't attack, but will defend their home if besieged. They are led by a Captain with a random boon, such as moving cheaply through mountains, or a combat bonus in castles...

We're on Bluesky now :D

You're in the smol Australian event organisers list that I've been slowly adding folks to (also if you know more folks that should be on it let me know!)

Reposting this here coz @chadtoprak.bsky.social & I laughed so much making this. 😂

Hello Everyone✨
Today and tomorrow are my last days working at Supaglu due to redundancy

it has been a pleasure working with you all to build your teams and to chat with the incredible devs our community has about their careers.

You've all been wonderful✨

👀 I know a space where you could run that workshop :P

I had a good chuckle and then a large sigh :(

Will you be taking a nap after shipping the game?

Do you have a tool or workflow that you'd want to re-use / re-create on the next game you work on?

I did the thing! Let me know about the rad folks making events in your circles please 😊

Please dob in more awesome event organisers 💜 I'll update this list as we go

Thinking about making a list of folks who run game development events in Australia, does anyone know if there's already a list for that?

On this ep of Aussie Role Call, @osullivankate.bsky.social was invited onto the podcasting stage at Pixel Expo and she interviewed Alyssa from Sphinx Stationery and Troy from Hit Dragons. Avail on major podcast platforms. podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/arc...

wishlist graph showing spike during Summer Games Fest and a small nudge during Steam Next Fest

Recap from Stean Next Fest showing: 988 total players 1,256 wishlists 205 played & wishlists

massive steam next fest (SNF) recap thread!

🎉 what went well
😬 what i didn't know i had to do
👀 trends across games on the front page

tldr: SNF is not a wishlist multiplier, it mainly surfaces titles with strong wishlist momentum (i.e. top ~500 most wishlisted games)
