🔄 Reconnect Recap for w/e 15th September '24
Connecting you to even more great games writing
Hi team, welcome to another issue of the Reconnect Recap, hopefully none of you noticed the incorrect title last week.
It’s been a volatile week in the world of gaming, and I love that whilst many mainstream sites are increasing the volume of the echo chamber, Reconnect still features some awesome articles covering a variety of topics.
As always, I’ll be recapping some of the best articles that featured on Reconnect this week and something extra.
The Recap
Featured on the site this week we had two articles about efforts to boost global awareness of indie developers.
The first , as reported by Console Creatures, is about an upcoming fundraising livestream built around a #weareindiedev movement. The second is a piece by GamesIndustry.biz about multiple efforts in Japan to provide incubators for local talent.
Not that I have favorites on the site, but I nearly always check out anything by the , GameDev Reports. Maybe it’s because I work in data by day, but it’s also because analysis in industry is really hard to come by given its secretive nature. One of their latest reads breaks down responses to a recent survey on what technologies are being used and the issues they face.
Following on from challenges developers face, Game Wisdom published a great article this week outlining a common frustration gamers are feeling with the modern gaming landscape.
Jumping into some actual games. Games That Weren’t dives into a long lost, recently found, Stargate game, and CRPG Addict recounts, in depth, their experience with Enchantasy.
Something Extra
Forget the playstation portal, this Instagram user created a portable playstation four from scratch. Head over to check out the build pictures.
