Your audience is smarter than you think. Stop treating them like children. Fun always trumps messaging. If a game isn't fun, no amount of social consciousness will save it. #GameDev #IndieDev Gaming Industry LOST $85 BILLION Chasing Fake Audiences https://t.co/BCetXp3NLZ

Why do game developers move so slow? Simple updates can be nightmares. One new fishing mechanic touches every system. Game dev is nothing like players think. #GameDev #SoftwareDev Game Developers Are NOT Lazy (The Hidden Truth Players Don’t See) https://t.co/Z8v07g9L0X
