I’m out of Remix. I wish I could say that this experience was a positive one, but I’d be lying. Game jam after game jam, it feels like I am always two steps behind. Everyone in my life told me that my games are great, and honestly, they are wrong. Five months have gone by since entering the “Remix ecosystem” (if you can call an app an "ecosystem"). I’m exhausted and I need to step back and take a hard look at myself in the mirror. I wish you guys nothing but the best. Please contact me. PS: see you on Monday

Bro, is this real? Never give up! Sometimes we just need a change of perspective, you are a great builder and one of the best players with his great feedbacks. Im sure you will be on the top, your games are always different, you deserve it

🥰 It's a pasta. But, as I do like my hidden meanings, it is also a little bit real. I see PINGEUS as my second best game ever. I gave a lot of thought into making it appropriate for kids, accessible, and tournament-friendly. I went pretty hard in a direction that I thought was unique and beautiful. It flopped completely on Remix. Both in popularity and team choice. I don't see AESOPNE as a particularly strong game. I like it and am proud of it, mind you! I think it's clean, ish. Just not my best work. Yet, this is the one that got selected in a game jam, and this is also the one people keep telling me they like. None of this is too much of a surprise. I like my things weird. I'm proud of my games, and I'm stubbornly confident they don't suck. So, I'm willing to accept they're not a good fit for the platform. 🙂 (cont...)

Yeah I get you mate, sometimes it could be a bit frustrating. Sometimes the best thing to do is adapt and change. I've spent a lot of time making very complex games and it's not worth it. In the Pengu one, I spent 4/5h daily since the announce making each single tilemap, with their own strategy and perks. I am 100% sure that I am the person who has invested the most time. The games that have been above mine in the rank, have much less development although they are awesome! Even people who have developed two much simpler games have earned more than me., so I don't know if this is the path Remix wants to follow but I will addapt. But, sadly in the end, people only value fast-paced, loop-style games. So I will have to change my mind. Btw we are here, the most important is the people we do on the way 😅

🤝 Indeed, I have no beef with the platform and still think they're doing an incredible job to push easy access and distribution. It's on us to view the situation with open eyes and act according to our goals.
