In this episode, we discuss devlogs, content moderation, and neurodivergence. When players leave reviews and feedback for gamedevs, a lot of times they’ll come in guns blazing with inflammatory language because they’re frustrated and accustomed to being ignored. People sometimes forget that there are real humans on the other side of the screen. Plan ahead by setting guidelines for feedback and creating a way to pre-fillter those comments to protect everyone’s peace. A little humor goes a long way!
