Join a growing community of likeminded developers dedicated to sharing lessons learned, successful trends, and more.
“There’s so much feedback we’d love to provide to teams pitching us their games,” says Corey Caplan, podcast host and tinyBuild’s Director of Business Development and Partner Licensing. “So instead of making excuses, we made time for them. This is a space we want dedicated to those who truly put their all into their game development projects. If you put your heart into it, we want to put eyes on it. We hope that what you learn from our new podcast will help you get the attention you deserve in an overly competitive creative industry.”
