Jay Justice🏳‍🌈🇯🇲♿This GDC had so many high points for me amid the chaos of the state of the game industry, and I am so appreciative of them all. It was an incredible honor to present the award for Social Impact to the team behind "Life is Strange: Double Exposure" at the Game Developers Choice Awards this year. Thank you to Alexa Ray Corriea for being a fantastic host and giving me the opportunity to share a few words in appreciation of our progress as an industry. <a href="https://blacktwitter.io/tags/GDC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GDC</a> <a href="https://blacktwitter.io/tags/GDCA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GDCA</a> <a href="https://blacktwitter.io/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gamedev</a>

Jason PossBig projects are great, but sometimes the smaller ones mean the most. I was so happy to see <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/Hauntii" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Hauntii</a> getting the recognition it deserves at <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/GDC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GDC</a> last week. The Game Audio Network Guild (GANG) presented the indie game Hauntii with the award for “Best New Original IP Audio”. Hauntii was nominated in three additional categories: Best Audio for an Indie Game, Best Music for an Indie Game, and Best Original Song.You can learn more at <<a href="https://symbolsofsound.com/2025/03/24/hauntii-wins-g-a-n-g-award/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://symbolsofsound.com/2025/03/24/hauntii-wins-g-a-n-g-award/</a>><a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/VGM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VGM</a> <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gamedev</a> <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/videogame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#videogame</a> <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#music</a>

consumableJoyAt <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/GDC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GDC</a> I walked by Immortal Funk Games, working Into the Woolderness, with sheep tending, wool collection, and knitting. Kneedle Drop is a rhythm game where you tap your knitting needles together and on your hands in pattern by color, mimicking knitting movements. Honestly I was terrible at it because I couldn’t remember which color meant which move. But it was fun! I can’t help but think maybe the game is *too* niche but it’s definitely MY niche. <a href="https://www.instagram.com/immortalfunkgames?igsh=bWJ3dThkcjFnb2Ji" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/immortalfunkgames?igsh=bWJ3dThkcjFnb2Ji</a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/knitting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gaming</a>

vga256i've been watching old episodes of Electric Playground, and today's episode brought me back to 2000.back then, i was an undergraduate, and any time i spent outside of class was either on irc or playing online games over dial-up. Ultima Online, Q2CTF and Counterstrike were pretty big timesinks at the time.there was also a tiny but growing indie industry. games like DXBall 2 and Treadmarks managed to chew up almost as much of my free time as the aforementioned AAA titles. i didn't know it back then - but both of these little games were by the same company: Longbow Digital Arts.i had known that the GDC IGF Seumas McNally Award was named after a developer who had won the IGF, and then died from his cancer soon afterward. what i did not know was that Seumas and his family owned and operated Longbow Digital Arts: they had made both DXBall 2 and Treadmarks, and that Treadmarks had won that year's IGF.buried in this 25 year old episode is an interview with Seumas and his family. he died exactly 25 years ago, yesterday. we're all poorer for having lost him so soon. 🙏 <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/indiegames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#indiegames</a> <a href="https://dialup.cafe/tags/gdc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gdc</a>

✾, chief troublemakerMy <a href="https://lily.network/tags/GDC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GDC</a> experience showed me how joyous and powerful and hella queer a crowd can be and I’m so glad I went.Even at the same con where someone randomly asked me at the con store to pick between notebooks and I went “You’re asking a trans person about Harry Potter stuff, it’s really not the time.”

✾, chief troublemakerLots of feelings about attending <a href="https://lily.network/tags/GDC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GDC</a> this week. If you work anywhere that has the same makeup of people, provenances and enthusiasm as I witnessed this week, treasure it and nurture it — what you have is precious and easy to lose.

Dilmer Valecillos 👓Well, that’s a wrap for <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/GDC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GDC</a> 2025 🎉! It was my first time speaking at a major conference, and honestly, I can’t wait to do many more presentations and workshops.When I arrived on Monday, I was laser-focused. I got to the conference room super early, spoke with the AV staff about the setup, tested my computer, grabbed my clicker, and walked around the room to make sure I felt comfortable and I’ve got to say, it paid off.This year, I’ll be at every major event, with a strong focus on education. I’ll continue covering what I teach today on YouTube, but also create a two-way feedback loop: sharing what developers are asking for or struggling with directly with engineers at Meta, while also bringing new tools and updates from the inside out.Super hyped 🔥 for the next event, and it was such a pleasure meeting so many amazing professionals and students throughout this incredible experience!<a href="https://techhub.social/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gamedev</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/meta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#meta</a> <a href="https://techhub.social/tags/mixedreality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mixedreality</a>

Jay Justice🏳‍🌈🇯🇲♿Day 5 of GDC! Last day already! It went by so fast! I'm going out in a bright burst of color & a lot of noise 😂 if you recognize my fashion inspo you get a NoPrize 🫡 If I haven't seen you all week it's your last chance to catch me until next year!

Kiri 💾🐍 //nullptr::live<a href="https://vt.social/tags/GDC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GDC</a> was depressing this year.Didn't find anything that really excited me in the expo hall, and the conversation topics were mostly around all the mass layoffs.The W4 Games talk about <a href="https://vt.social/tags/Godot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Godot</a> progress was pretty neat, but I had to miss the actual Godot meetup to get to it. :cAnyway. I think I've seen enough. It was nice meeting up with old friends I haven't seen in forever, but I think I'm just going to stay home for Friday.

✾, chief troublemakerHey, <a href="https://lily.network/tags/GDC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GDC</a>! It’s the last day, so I wanted to put out a call: if you’re doing tabletop design and are around, I would love to sit for tea or coffee with other designers and talk about what’s up right now. Just DM me!
