Developers are from Adelaide.

Today we explore the ‘Silksong Effect’ and how one game’s legendary delay is leaving its mark on the games industry

    Sweet success? The game isn’t even out yet and the journalists are already glazing it? Oh brother.

    I don’t think the game is going to be bad, but come on.

    Saw a headline mentioning developers moving bavk their games to not compete with Silk Song’s and was like “wow that’s crazy for an indie game” but then they were all also indie games I hadn’t even heard of.

    Tho, it was funny seeing the Silk Song dev be told this and going “What? Why?” 🤣

      It’s the single most wishlisted game on Steam (including AAA games), which is pretty crazy

    It’s done when it’s done. IT managers need to learn this, or get something more technical than an MBA.
