🎮 GameDev Relay - Year 2

2 whole years of News, Video Games and (hopefully) something useful for you!

Mar 29, 2026

Hello friends,

A few days ago, this newsletter celebrated its second anniversary!

That’s why today I wanted to take a small step back and talk about whys and hows and shed some light on where this whole thing is going.

Let’s dig in!

🛣️ The Road So Far

This past year has been full of new things!

While I couldn’t fulfill my initial goal of doing more collaboration projects, I did something I’ve been thinking about for the last few years (or even more). I started a YouTube channel 😅

And I’m even voicing over everything myself, which is a huge personal milestone for me in itself.

So, here are some numbers across my media presence (at the time of writing):

✉️ Substack - 802 Subscribers (Nuts!) - 1 Paid
🎥 YouTube - 52 Subscribers - 10.000 Monthly Views
📹 TikTok (yes, I have one of those as well) - 32 Subscribers - 27.000 Monthly Views

While some of these numbers are not at all impressive, I’m personally very proud of all of them and, honestly, surprised as hell. As I never imagined I would get this far in this exciting journey 😅

🎮 How’s it going

Which is why I want to say a huge THANK YOU to all of you who are reading it right now.

It is an honour and a privilege to write to you, read your reactions and have you as an audience! You guys are absolutely amazing, and I hope it brings you as much joy to read, watch and listen to this as it brings me to craft it!

👾 What’s next

Actually, I’m not sure yet, and I hope that’s ok 😅

With the introduction of video format, I have almost no time left in the week to do anything else. At least until I could start outsourcing the editing of the videos, which is unfortunately on a very distant horizon at the moment.

What I do want to do is to become a better editor, with both my writing and video content. So, this year I want to stop spreading myself too thin and focus on the quality of the content, as well as on maintaining the momentum. Which, I have to say, is very hard sometimes, especially after spending hours upon hours on editing one video 😁

So, the next year is all about quality and consistency, as experts suggest that these are the twin pillars that hold the entire creative world.

On that note, if you have any feedback or suggestions on any of the content that I publish, my door is always open, and I will appreciate any and all thoughts you guys have to share 🙏

🫡 Special Thanks!

All these publications and their authors are very dear to my heart, so I wanted to show some additional appreciation. Without a community like this, I wouldn’t be here today!
