Video: A Dream Daddy dev’s survival guide for terminally online indies

<div style="margin: 5px 5% 10px 5%;"><img src="http://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/video-a-dream-daddy-devs-survival-guide-for-terminally-online-indies.jpg" width="200" height="200" title="" alt="" /></div><div><p>In this 2019 GDC session, indie dev Leighton Gray talks about how to weather success (and failure) by cultivating a healthier relationship with the internet based on her experience releasing&nbsp;<em>Dream Daddy,&nbsp;</em>the charming dad dating sim she co-created and shipped in 2017.</p>
<p>This is a great talk for indies to watch because, as Gray points out, a modern game developer’s biggest asset and most towering obstacle is probably the internet.</p>
<p>And especially as an indie, you don’t have the luxury of just logging off when things get overwhelming; in her talk, Gray shares what she learned about how to avoid being overwhelmed, and what to do to stay sane while making games in a post-internet world.&nbsp;</p>
<p>If you didn’t catch it live at GDC earlier this year, good news: Gray’s talk is now available to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuZcdhXS770">watch for free over on the official GDC YouTube channel</a>!</p>
<p>In addition to this presentation, the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.gdcvault.com/">GDC Vault</a>&nbsp;and its accompanying&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0JB7TSe49lg56u6qH8y_MQ/feed">YouTube channel</a>&nbsp;offers numerous other free videos, audio recordings, and slides from many of the recent&nbsp;<a href="http://www.gdconf.com/">Game Developers Conference events</a>, and the service offers even more members-only content for GDC Vault subscribers.</p>
