Our game Thronefall is now available on iOS as well. Android coming soon. Ported by Doghowl Games, looks like they did an amazing job. You can try it for free, give it a spin.

Just published a video about how I juggle way to many projects at once and the best ways I found to deal with it in case you ever encounter the same issue. How do you deal with project overload?

I wish app stores had search and recommendations that actually work.

Too many new things to try on Steam today: . 1⃣ ISLANDERS New Shores Demo (Sequel to our original) .2⃣ The Darkest Files, game by Paint Bucket Games (and my friend Yän who works there).3⃣ Nordhold (cool tower defense game we bundled with Thronefall). The stars aligned once again.

Full video is on YT if you want to watch it. I will probably change my opinion again in the future. Which game dev beliefs did you change your mind on?.

I tried going through my backlog of videos to find more things I disagree with now, but it got too cringe, so I had to stop.

"Your Game Needs a HOOK!" - Nah, it helps, but it's overvalued. What matters much more is that you find a good opportunity in the market and exploit it.

My framework for how to create appeal was too short-sighted. There are a lot of different ways to create appeal and this model fails to capture that reality.

I used to believe that you need to do heavy promotion for your game. I still think you should promote your game BUT I also believe that making a great marketable game IS by far the best marketing now.

Yeah, so I went through all 3 stages. I hope there aren't any more, haha.

Having your game art be self explanatory deserves much better than being last place on your priority list.

I reinvented "Flow" for no reason. I thought flow was a contributing factor to fun, now I think it pretty much IS fun. Also, fantasy/mimicry is not a must for creating fun, so I'd sort it more to motivation, appeal or enjoyment now.

I'm like 99.99% sure this is not actually you, but just in case I censored half of the email address. It's pretty cleverly written. Lol.
