Here’s a poem called ‘Billionaire in a Midlife Crisis’.

Billionaire in a Midlife Crisis

He’s swapped designer jeans and flashy cars
For designer spacesuits and trips to Mars
Where he watches Earth turn on its axis
And its stupid people paying taxes
He’s indulging all his whims and vices
He’s a billionaire in a midlife crisis

He wants to bring an end to poverty
Once his new hair has lost its novelty
He’s dropping rap tracks and dissing pronouns
His kids have names they cannot pronounce
He’s choosing who his next young wife is
He’s a billionaire in a midlife crisis

He’s on a mission to save humanity
Armed with crap jokes and rampant vanity
The self-styled champion of free speech
He’s got a mute button in easy reach
He’ll buy anything no matter what the price is
He’s a billionaire in a midlife crisis

Brian Bilston

Hey #GameDev Twitter, I want to share a mantra that has really helped me & others in Interviewing for #gamejobs. 🙏🏽Repeat to yourself out loud: “I am NOT here to convince this person I’m the right candidate. I am NOT here to convince this person I’m the right candidate.” 1/4

Halloween came early. The gates of hell hath opened

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Rich men on fire as they transfer their wealth. I watched as the digits glittered down to dust for the metaverse and NFTs. The wealthy techbros weeped. Billions just poured into thin air. Like tears in the rain

@LukePlunkett

the funniest/saddest thing about these techbros wasting billions on shit like the metaverse is that once it fails we'll be left with....nothing. billions just poured into thin air.

Released a mobile game recently... Promoting it is the hardest challenge right now.

Use the GUI that comes with the Steamworks SDK, SteamPipeGui, much more consistent than commandline and make sure you logout of Steam before pushing on same box or it may fail at last min

All the things. What events to do with no budget, how do ppl crop TikTok’s from 16:9s, media submission lists, do I have to get a Snapchat? Marketing solo in general rlly

Beyond yes. The misinformation in the UE4 community makes learning difficult. Everyone has a unique way of doing things and that is fine but when everyone preaches their way is the right or way it can be frustrating and overwhelming. To the point of learning by failure seems best

Don’t waste your steam visibility coupons by using one during sales, sales overwrites update cue and no one tells you. You get 5 early access or not and they don’t tell you which is why I think there are alot of remasters and or rereleases. I used 1 and now I’m scared

Replying to

I've finished it already, but I had an awful time trying to get my game on any console (I made a local multiplayer-focused game). It never happened, so that really closed most of the possible market for me with PC being my only option. Made me want to quit game dev, really.

if you hate your twitter experience just follow a bunch of artists and indie game devs. i guarantee your twitter experience will improve

Watching Black Mirror: Bandersnatch at a time when I was in the middle of making a narrative choice game was one of the most surreal moments of my life

Now expect lots of games to release with coffee as the health item.. 🤣

Game devs, the last thing you consumed in real life is the item that gives your character health in your next game. What is it?

A comprehensive guide on the business/financial part of it would be great. LLC stuff, taxes, relevant fees, ect. I never realized how much business stuff goes in to making games and I was frankly unprepared and am struggling a bit with playing catch up.

Replying to

Having just run a round of play tests for #pylonauts I can honestly say I was making it up 🤣 The process of provisioning the build on Steam is well documented, but actually coordinating the thing? Very different from internal QA and full betas - both of which I have done before.

Dave - WARCHASM “Full Tilt” update coming soon!

Replying to

Yes! Game released on Steam a while back and to this day I cannot get on answer on how to force the end users PC to update the manifest to allow for new or additional controls.

Those of you making your first game as an indie or solo dev - Are there any areas you're struggling to find information or advice on? #indiedev #indiegame #solodev

Just remembering the time that my boyfriend in early college accidentally deleted my Skyrim game completely and I actually broke up with him for a week. We had been together for four years.

genuinely shocked to see on a gamedev discord that some employers still have the gall, in this the year of our lord 2022, to try it on in contracts that they own everything the dev makes in their own home, off the clock, for the duration of their employment what is this 2004?!

Hi, Twitter, I’ve got a question… Can you think of any voice actors who can also sing? People who do both at a legit level, be they professional, up and coming, anyone you can think of. I’m gathering some names for reference in the future for a ✨thing.✨
