Pro tip: don’t listen to anyone who tells you that you have to code every day to become a great programmer.

Take time off on weekends and vacations, to recharge or just take a break from daily programming.

Spend time on envisioning, design, architecture, user stories, retro.

This may hurt but every #IndieGameDev needs to read this:

“Why nobody cares about your indie game”
by Lewis Denby via @gamasutra

1️⃣ unoriginal

2️⃣ doesn’t look good enough

3️⃣ not telling enough people

4️⃣ telling the wrong people

5️⃣ timing is wrong

@avashly I remember making my first indie games with PowerPoint graphics lol :)

Behold: Angry Zombie Ninja Cats via @OnekSoftGames on #Xbox360 😀

[OnekSoft Games @OnekSoftGames]

This made my day! About 7 years after the release of Angry Zombie Ninja Cats on Xbox 360, someone uploaded a 20-minute playthrough of the entire game.

Appreciate the patience while he learned from mistakes and completed every level with #NinjaCat!

@jayone74 @OnekSoftGames @BitKidGames Then there’s @Fortress_Craft which was the first to get to $1M.

My unoptimized code was hanging my sales data analyzer on the OnekSoft Labs web server... so I had to leave this running on my local dev machine to generate this sales chart!

[Shahed Chowdhuri @shahedC]

@jayone74 @OnekSoftGames Some of these charts are eye-opening. This one is for Take Arms by James Petruzzi of Discord Games (now @BitKidGames).

$3 game sold 2k copies, $1 price drop skyrocketed sales!

Frank @Tableteer and I recorded this #NinjaCat game dev interview back in 2013, and it’s actually been 7 years since I published Angry Zombie Ninja Cats for Xbox in 2011 🙂 via @OnekSoftGames

@windowscentral @DGallagher_LA @cgallizzi @dark1x @shieldsjames @paulhardware That’s cool that you got @XboxP3 @majornelson and @stiniuk for Xbox accounts but you guys missed @iocat Chris Charla, @ID_Xbox Director, who should also be on the list :)
