Stop Developing Thinky Games for Other Thinky Developers - Xalavier Nelson Jr. (ThinkyCon 2024)
Xalavier Nelson Jr. joins us at ThinkyCon 2024 to present his talk: "Stop Developing Thinky Games for Other Thinky Developers".
A lot of thinky developers, especially early in their careers, are making their games to reach an audience of their peers and mentors--rather than players. By interrogating that impulse and discussing the thinky and thinky-adjacent work of Strange Scaffold, I hope to provide a brief demonstration of the wider, broader player base excited to see the future of thinky creations - if we build things capable of reaching them.
