a photo of me squatting in front of a sega & friends window display with my arms out, absolutely swagged out.

this is #WhatAGameDevLooksLike!! not at GDC this year (😭) but i've been in games as a marketing professional for 4 years now!

it takes a LOT for me to celebrate myself, but in that short time i went from a beginner with no industry experience to a director role, and i think that's pretty cool :'^)

Can't make it to GDC this year unfortunately but here's #WhatAGameDevLooksLike

Hey! I'm Laura from Canada and I've been working as a concept artist and a part time dev in games for just about 7 years now ~

i wasn't feeling super great this week so we slid a rerun in!!

hello, my name is leyla and i'm a (very hireable) producer/pipelines pervert based in baltimore county. this is my fifth year in game dev, where i've worked in AAA and start-ups, and i am most certainly #WhatAGameDevLooksLike.

a referee is trying to stop a fight on the ice; one of the involved players has his jersey pulled up over his head so all that's visible is a flash of blond hair

it's a pile of hockey players behind the net. just a car crash. just an entire incident.

fight counter: 5. two clean headshots of two players are layered over one of them taking a punch to the throat.

a bunch of hockey players loudly celebrating as the score reads 8-7 BUF

incredible work

The CRAZIEST NHL Game Seen In Years… YouTube video by Hockey Psychology

Not at GDC this year but it's time for #whatagamedevlookslike (two of us!). Jan and I played Court Jesters at a fundraising gala, where we invented and then facilitated three games for a large party crowd.

I've been making video games since the 80s, analog games since the 90s.

JC has pink and purple hair and is wearing sunglasses, a black sleeveless hoodie, and a silver necklace with a pizza charm on it. She is in front of a bunch of flowers that look like they are exploding out of her head. The sky is blue behind her.

This is #WhatAGameDevLooksLike! I’m JC, I’ve been a gamedev for 10+ years in AAA/indie, and I am currently lead producer and (NEWLY MINTED) COO at my studio, @twirlbound.com! I love making cool stuff with cool people, developing sustainable career paths, and of course yelling (lovingly) about Jira ✨

So anyway, I hope during GDC week in March you participate in #WhatAGameDevLooksLike! It's been a tough year, and we deserve some joy and a bright spark for our industry. Also, to make it easier, we have a feed on Bluesky! bsky.app/profile/drjc...
