Folks have asked me recently how much it costs to attend #GDC and how to do it cheaply. Tbh, the convention definitely has affordability & accessibility issues. I can't fix this unilaterally, but fwiw & in case it helps, here's some context + tips around the costs of my trip...

Final tip: it's not uncommon for schools and employers to sponsor you, and there are other organizations that often do too. Some include those supporting local devs, the queer community, and/or other marginalized groups. It's worth asking around!

We've gone meta - our #gamedev process now has progress bars too!

They say "you can't improve what you don't measure", and tbh, this has been a big help ensuring we make steady strides in filling out the levels to our puzzle game, The BridgeMaster 📈

To support a new mechanic in our puzzle game #TheBridgeMaster, I've made another update to our pathfinding algorithm!

This one was particularly tricky because the act of following a path can invalidate the remainder of the path... [1/8]
