Playtesters were complaining that dual-wielding prevented them from opening chests so I'm now making fun of them.

Don't just read the headline, read the blog. There's some really good insights in here. Especially around setting deadlines for yourself.

Making a Multiplayer Game In 3 Months My ABOUT ME says, " The life of an independent software developer could be compared to that of a rat. In other words, I am a rat."ย  and not unlike a rat, the smell of a better meal occasionally...

Oh whoa a new Gum Squad related blog post? How could this have happened??

Oh my god, as someone who was also recently on dating apps and talking to men, it is very sad. They all were so nervous/self-conscious that they weren't tall enough, or strong enough, or rich enough. I think that's more to do with the city we're in though tbh. I appreciate that they are humble haha
