Dear Game Dev, While working on your game projects, it is possible you desire to use a copyrighted material from another game dev without seeking their permission. However, fairness must be ensured in such use. The metrics for determining fair use vary across different countries, but here are key ones: 🎮: the purpose and character of the use. For example: was there a significant alteration to the copied content? 🎮: the nature of the copyrighted work used i.e. whether it's a highly creative work or a factual/non-fictional material. 🎮: the portions of the copyrighted material used. Using a smaller portion would be of advantage. 🎮: effects on market value of the original work. Conflicts over fair use can jeopardize your brand reputation in several ways: 🎮: Negative media coverage can damage your public image. 🎮: Building trust and securing partnerships becomes challenging in an industry that thrives on collaboration. To avoid these risks, consider the following best practices: 🎮: aim for transformative use of the original IP by adding new meaning, context or value to it. 🎮: obtain explicit permission or a license to use third-party IP. 🎮: consider creating original content to enhance the uniqueness and originality of your game. 🎮: Regularly consult with an IP professional who has specialized knowledge of the industry. I hope this helps. Credit: Juego Studios #deargamedev #gamedev #indiedev #gamebusiness #gamedevelopment #videogamesip #gamesindustry

Ever had that sinking feeling when a report or article you wrote about the latest version of a game, once thought to be accurate, was later proven false? It's a strange mix of emotions, isn't it? There's the initial self-doubt, questioning if you could have done more to verify the information. But then, there's a flicker of pride, recognizing how far you've come and how much you've learned. In the fast-paced world of iGaming, staying on top of the latest game updates and industry news is crucial. It's a reminder that even the most experienced writers can make mistakes. The key is to learn from them, refine your research methods, and strive for even greater accuracy in the future. What are your thoughts on this? Have you experienced something similar in the iGaming industry? #igaming #contentwriting #editing

Last week I shared an article for Ark One Studios where we discussed the importance of an impeccable pitch deck.

The real game we are playing today is "The Great Online Game". I got introduced to this idea in Packy McCormick's Not Boring newsletter. As creators, we play this game by sharing powerful ideas and building meaningful projects. And if our ideas & projects help other players in the game, they rewards us with, - attention - alliances - resources - opportunities - money - freedom - reputation and - leverage If you choose to not play it, and yet consume what others create, you are being a "Non Playing Character" or NPC. And if you want a quick start in this game, start writing & publishing your ideas. It is as simple as that. When are you starting?
