In this episode, we discuss community building, speed-running, and tool swapping. You can't attract followers with nothing to offer. Once you've got a solid foundation, lay out some tasty morsels and invite people to take a look. Forge genuine connections, and maybe some of those people will want to stay for a meal. Then before you know it, you're hosting a dinner party... open house...? Look, we make games, not metaphors.
Questions answered (abbreviated):
- 03:09 Veeryota: What can you recommend to start building a community of my own?
- 26:01 Challosis: Have you tried other user-generated content maker games, like Super Dungeon Maker or Meet Your Maker?
- 34:47 IllegallySam: Would you guys be interested in ever doing some kind of developer-commentated speedrun for one of your games?
- 38:31 Coobra Nookrag: how did you redesign Crashlands 1 characters for CL2?
