Amazing work from the @limitbreak.co.uk team! Proud to be helping out as part of the committee π we'll keep on doing what we do rain or shine, but you know it's definitely easier with your support π

75% of podcasts are a structure by which a group of neurodivergent people trick themselves into scheduled hangs with each other, and by extension, a decently maintained friendship.

Ultimately, if no one is willing to fight for and champion your game, how will it stand out in a field of good games? πͺ
Help me out and pop over to the not-worst-but-still-bad-place and share this plea for support for @limitbreak.co.uk
We've had some AMAZING businesses and individuals step up to keep the program alive but I'd love to see a bit more to fulfil our potentialππ

Whilst my son is listening to an instrumental version of Welcome To The Black Parade, I'm reminded of this:
This is a really great list of games that designers should play!
If I had my own list I would've added VVVVVV, Angry Birds, Teardown, Hades, and Geometry Wars, what games that influence you are missing from the list? π

Honestly, it's whenever I pick him up and he does like a yawny wakey scrunch and my heart is just like π₯
Will it be 10 minutes will it be 55, spin the wheel of tiny human and find out π (going through the same atm!)
Just beat VVVVVV for the umpteenth time, but this time on Steam Deck π still works flawlessly and I still recommend it today πͺ
Also completed it in just over an hour and just under 300 deaths π€© got an achievement n all π
Just like that we're back on 8th Jan for our next #Sheffield meetup! We'll be downstairs at Sheffield Plate to chat all things game dev π€
7 - 9 pm - Thursday 8th January
More info: luma.com/1fv38veo
Some great people in that shot π
So the real networking is ... the friends we made along the way? π
In all seriousness, it really is just "go to places where other people will be and chat to them without an agenda". That's still difficult to do for a lot of people, but it's a lot easier than going in with a business angle π€
