A good big stomp along the Ridgeway today

To quantify “nothing”: DWG has been downloaded around 3,500 times on iOS. On Android it’s more like 400. Most of our sales are in the UK, where Android is fairly common vs the US. The reverse of our last game in several ways!

Been quite fun watching Dave’s Word Game fluctuate up and down the charts on the App Store. Think our peak is 83, but it goes right down to not even being in the top 200. App Store’s discovery algorithm is opaque but good to us. Play Store gives us nothing

Social media adds constant wear and tear to my brain and soul but it’s also the only way I can find out about indie games given few of the websites have the staff to cover them these days. I love blogs, if you have a blog with an RSS feed send me it!

Got promoted to Staff Software Engineer at the day job and found out someone else is making a game in my game engine so that’s a lovely start to my year professionally

Not much of a view from the top of Binnian but still gorgeous to be out in the Mournes on the first day of the year

This evening I encountered a Christingle for the first time. How the English conquered the world I will never understand. Have a lovely Christmas friends, it’s hard out here but I love you and I’m glad to know you.

This dog keeps alternating between loudly snoring and yelling while walking around

Think that’s a new record for the amount of time it’s taken me to get a response to a GitHub issue

Thank you! No unfortunately not, I did apply years ago and got rejected, I’ll need to try again at some point.
