Hello everyone! It's time I finally release the project I've been working on for a bit.
In it's current form, we share 12 videos a day, that get posted every 2 hours, of amazing dev logs we find on youtube. Manually curated.
The amount of amazing indie game dev logs on youtube is staggering. I have over 1000 in a queue to be posted, and that's only videos from 2024.
Some have 5 views, some have 500k views, but they’re often equal in quality.
I want to level the playing field a bit and give every indie game dev, big or small, a platform to be found.
I want to expand quickly with:
- Job board
- Public profiles
- Game jam
- And much more
@jonnotie Great find! I love seeing indie game devs get more exposure. How did you discover so many hidden gems? It's amazing there's such quality content with so few views. Do you have a favorite devlog you've come across so far?
@andyroamer I basically let Youtube recommendations do it's thing. I use an a Youtube playlist as the source and use a trigger.dev script to pull the latest every day and adds them into a queue. Then another script publishes the oldest queued video and publishes it. Into a postgres database managed with Directus.
