It's far from perfect, but LinkedIn has become my social media hangout of choice in the wake of X/Threads/bsky/Mastodon fragmentation.
Come find me waffling all things #GamesIndusty over there: linkedin.com/in/heydanthomas

Leaving my field and heading to Guildford on Friday to deep dive all things @ApparanceUK with @ga5p0d3 followed by some spooky Halloween funsies π
If anyone's about and wants a #ProcGen nerd out, give me a shout. Might even treat you to a spooky pumpkin-spiced latte!

I *think* I'm just about on top of this now. If you reached out and haven't heard from me, it's because of Twitter's barmy messaging rules because I'm not verified/premium π€·

I've not been active on Twitter for a long time, because all it showed me was ads and anger. The past few days, being connected to so many #IndieGameDev folks has been a real welcome palette cleanser.
I've seen so many cool games that weren't on my radar π₯³

I was expecting like 20 people to notice this. I've got 90 replies and a similar no of DM's π«
Just to temper expectations, this IS cool and I'm hyped for it, but I'm not giving away wads of cash or anything.
We just wanna help lil games get noticed, and this'll help. Back tmrwπ΄

#SteamNextFest can be overwhelming for a lot of indie game developers...
...but does it have to be? π€
I build marketing tools like Coverage Bot to help on the community-side! π

This will be a fun one to follow π
