Every year, #WhatAGameDevLooksLike reminds me that even though the industry is tough right now, there are still a ton of people who are passionate about bringing joy to people with their craft. It's a small (but persistent!) ray of hope in these Trying Times (TM).

Hi I'm Ela, I design your game experiences, which means passionate yaps on data and having too many post-its with cryptic words and diagrams on my desk 🀠

I work in AAA which is funnily enough also my ongoing internal monologue screaming into the void

I played the demo of this today and honestly I don't really play farming games very much but this is SUPER cute, cozy and just a wonderful time. I found myself being upset that the 7 days were up and I can't wait to play more of this in the future!

I really want to get back into Clair Obscur but I stopped because I was having a really rough time emotionally & wasn't ready to have that in a game too & I can't stream that much right now and I want to finish the story of Hades II & I'm worried I'll forget what's going on & be really bad at it

For those that need to hear this:

Everything will be ok πŸ«‚πŸ’œ

I think sometimes that's all we need to ground ourselves

Nothing overwhelming or complicated

I know I need it sometimes πŸ₯°

So many people praise Horses of Hoofprint Bay for its "realism" even though it's probably the most visually stylized horse game released this decade. That just goes to show that when people ask for "realistic" horse games, many of them *don't* actually mean UE5 photorealistic graphics at all.

So lots to look forward to if any of that takes your fancy. I'm happy just getting to play more games outside of streaming regardless of if anyone is watching or not but it's always nice to share the fun times

The next game on the list for Mondays is GRIS a beautiful puzzle platformer. After MIO I'm planning on playing both of the Ori games. I've played the first game before but never got far into the second due to my laptop having a bad time years ago so I'm going to start from the beginning again.

I've been playing the demo for Horse of Hoofprint Bay & started MIO: Memories in Orbit. I've 1 more video of Hoofprint Bay to go up next Monday & then that's the demo done. I'm planning to keep to uploading 2 videos a week with 1 day being a metroidvania & day (Mondays) being another game.

Its time for more Silksong! I am definitely improving in a lot of ways but just need to get more consistent in trying to get this hitless! Will hopefully be moving over to Hades II after to try and unlock the next vow of rivals!!

If you’re worried about the future of games, remember that your $ holds enormous sway. Support companies who actually care about the art and craft of making games, who put people first and value their employees & audiences. Support indies especially. The future doesn’t belong to greedy corporations

elliejoypanic's plus program goal for february is at 185/300 paid sub points

I am on the FINAL MONTH of pushing for a 70/30 revenue split on Twitch subs for another year, and we only have 8 days left to qualify (yikes)

I'd hate to hit those first 2 months and then miss out right at the end, so if you're able to help support with a paid sub I'd be super grateful! πŸ–€πŸ–€
