Just saw an "afterparty" invite charging founders for "warm intros," and having investors come free. If you have to pay for a warm intro, it is not a warm intro. In the legitimate investment world this is called scummy and gross. Avoid. #GDC24

I love live games. I've almost exclusively made live games. I play a lot of live games. Not everything needs to be a live game.

Boost for some indie friends who help other indies! Cool idea. Hope it helps all involved get more eyes and hands on their games. 😁

"Should everything be a live game?" With news of another publisher talking about a large scale transformation into live games, there are a larger number of important questions to ask and things to think about than many do. medium.com/@hartsman/d2ab…

5K Followers 404 FollowingExcellent, excellent thread on marketing. This is the same type of stuff I tried to get across to both of my previous parent companies and they just didn't bite. This applies a lot to content creation as well (and maybe why I tweet a bit too much).
RE this dumbass marketing thing. Yes, we don’t have a credited marketer. I know it’s weird. We paid A LOT of money to trial the industry’s best agencies for this shit and they came up with nothing good. We learned some genuinely meaningful, replicable things from it.

7) Impressions don’t mean anything to you. They’re a bogus economy that serve only to fund a quite literal false economy. It distances yourself from your target audience. Focus on tangible expressions, organic reactions, etc. your CM is your most valuable asset.
1) hire funny people. The most meaningful connection you can have with audiences is what I call “true social resonance”. What this means is an authentic connection for the short or long term with an audience you know will fuck with what you’re doing.
When someone is sure they have the video game business completely figured out is just the period of time before they're forced to realize they don't.

@hartsman I had a feeling you might rejoice this one :) I certainly am :D
The State of Game Studio Financing In this week's newsletter I dive into how VC funding for game studios works at each stage (seed, Series A, Series B), what VCs tend to look for, and brainstorm where the markets might be going. robin-guo.com/p/the-state-of… Studio financing is…
@hartsman I think most folks that have worked with you would drop what they were doing and come running if you put out the call for a new studio/project. 💜
A great takeaway in general. Hopefully the drop of non-competes helps open the eyes of some places to learn from this
Create a great work culture, a sense of ownership and collaboration. Welcome questions and dissent in pursuit of the best courses of action. Pay staff bonuses before exec bonuses. And, just in general, try really hard to not be an asshole. (4/5)
@hartsman In CA non-competes haven't been enforceable for decades now, but that hasn't stopped out of state corps from trying. I have stories. Maybe that will be over now. Also, I played Gemstone on GEnie when it first launched!
The most valuable indicator of future potential is not past performance. It's recent progress. The people who exceed expectations tomorrow are the ones who improved the most yesterday. Getting better shows the drive and dexterity to learn. Growth is an accomplishment in itself.
Been thinking about this a lot recently: the J-curve for gaming investments. Takes more capital and more time to launch a game compared to a consumer app or LLM-wrapper. This is more similar to biotech or hardtech investing but with less moats (no patents, no capex).
You wouldn’t last an hour in the asylum where they raised me.
after many months of cross-country flights, zoom calls, and late night deck revisions... whew... I'm glad to finally be able to share what I've been up to for the past bit: yes, that's right-- A16Z GAMES FUND TWO 😎 I'm super proud of the team for putting this all together.…
I got IDd last night, but as I was rummaging around in my purse for my ID, the dude saw my checkbook and said "nevermind" 😭😒🤣 FIRST OF ALL
I'm in there, and cool to see almost everyone agrees, including a bunch of non-gaming critics
We 100% agree. Imagine founding a YC company called Delve.
My point here is not that I dislike "delve," though I do, but that it's a sign that text was written by ChatGPT.
Ok but seriously. This is brilliant
