We’ve funded more than a dozen indie projects across Southeast Asia without asking for a recoup. Profit was never the aim. We just wanted to see more gamedevs and games from the region flourish, so we provided a safety net for them through TGFI. Some projects we’ve funded:

Had a chance to talk to GamesIndustry about burnout, sustainability, and how the economic centers of gaming are leaving Big Money on the table to chase megabets that have a small chance to make All The Money.
In our latest, Strange Scaffold CEO Xalavier Nelson Jr. discusses real-time learning and sustainability in the games industry. gamesindustry.biz/xalavier-nelso…
I'm really proud of our game's marketing!!!! Yeah we fought tooth and nail for every opportunity for the last two years but at least it shows we can do this semi reliably and dont have to wonder anymore if our games will get a chance at life All with no publisher :3
What people say: “Game companies have an evil woke agenda and are forcing DEI on us.” The reality: “Square Enix told multiple developers it didn’t want Life Is Strange to be thought of as the “gay game.”
According to over a dozen current and former employees, Life Is Strange developer Deck Nine’s management has long let a toxic work culture fester at the studio, including protecting multiple abusive leaders, encouraging crunch, and more. bit.ly/4cIiUVI

There's no sleeping on the PC-98 here! We committed to the 640x400 resolution and decided to make our artists life even harder by limiting it to 4 colours for the extra retro vibe 😎
WHY IS PC-98 MUSIC SO BEAUTIFUL?! WHY IS PC-98 ART SO BEAUTIFUL? WHY ARE WE ALL SLEEPING ON THIS BEAUTY?!
mini indie game marketing 🧵: Spirit Mouse has been out for a year+, but I still tweet almost daily about it, to make some promo / just to have fun Im glad Im doing it, cause I keep seeing replies like "How am I hearing about this for the first time???"🐭 1/6
what two years of game dev looks like #gamedev #madewithunity
This stream is insanely meta. Their vtuber is synced to their 2D overlay as well as the 3D world they're developing. They draw the pixel art, 3D model, and code everything on stream. It's all custom built from the ground up. The lo-fi pixel aesthetics are incredible.
update on my Slime game💚 You sent your trusty minion into the nearby human city to gather intel. But it's summer.. keeping that slime hydrated is a serious commitment #gamedev #techart #vfx #realtimevfx #UE5
We're working with @lostincult on the official Eastward: Design Works. This definitive exploration of #Eastward's art and design principles features lots of interviews with the team here at Pixpil, as well as hidden archival artwork from our vault... 👀 lostincult.co.uk
Some tips on keeping tiny game tiny. A: write down no more than three simple specific features you want your game to be loved for. B: design out these things first. C: then expand the document, anything that does not support or highlight these things is marked optional.
#gamedev I once again am thinking about making a tiny tiny game and am requesting ideas/advice on how to not try to turn everything into a huge project.
we said it many times and we'll say it again: queer people existing, being included & represented, is not a "world view". we'd much, much rather alienate a potential bigoted customer base than not have these features prominently featured in the game.
❗️⚠️❗️ Critical Update ❗️⚠️❗️ In the coming hours, the simulation will be paused indefinitely. We recommend hydrating and eating a large meal before the pause. The server cost has become too much to bear. It was fun while it lasted 🫡
How we made our character sprite with 2D procedural animation for some dynamic movement. Thinking of doing a slightly more in-depth post/video for this 🤔 (maybe more dev posts while we work on Rusted Moss' major content update) #indiedev #indiegame
Working on a fun little addon! I will make it public for everyone under the MIT license soon. 💙 #godotengine #godette
I was exactly 35 when I quit my job in November 2017, and I turned 36 in December. I opened Game Maker for the first time when I was 25. My dad (who drew all Ringo and Arrest animations) started to learn pixel art at 58. So I believe it's never too old.
@IAmRizary @shin_yeo 35 is too old to change careers, just try to make money and have a family.
I made a 3D scan of my dog Sam a couple of years ago. She passed away 7 month ago, I still miss her a lot. I still visit her in this beach scene I made in @UnrealEngine in VR because our last trip was supossed to be a little vacation in a beach, but her health didnt let us go.
Indie devs should be more bold about just trying things that have been done before. Without any wacky twists. There are so many briliant but half baked ideas that need to just be tried again with the benefit of hindsight in order to be perfect, and no one is doing it.
