Great speech on Web 3.0! The next phase of Patreon is intriguing, though the model's ability to recapture the true fan remains uncertain. It's a unique crowdsourced production company led by creators, and there's still a tremendous opportunity to create human-centered experiences. The age of bespoke community experiences is coming, where smaller groups unite to create digital worlds for true engagement. Let's hope Web 3.0 delivers on that promise! #Web3 #Patreon #DigitalWorlds #TrueEngagement https://lnkd.in/d6P7BPtc

K-pop celebrities BLACKPINK are stepping into the world of digital collectibles🖤🎀 VeVe, a digital collectibles platform, is launching a digital collection inspired by BLACKPINK's song "Pink Venom". From May 22-26, fans can collect items featuring the four BLACKPINK members, each in outfits by DEMOBAZA. The collection also includes 3D models of each member, a virtual stage, and a digital version of BLACKPINK's light stick. What’s in it for collectors? ✔️ Collect all four versions of any member to create a special 'Pink Venom' card. ✔️ This card gives access to an event where you can get an extra unique digital item. Key takeaways from this collab: ▪ K-pop fans are spread out globally and consume content digitally. Which makes digital collectable a great fit. ▪ Working with BLACKPINK, who have a huge influence on fashion and youth culture, is a smart move. 📌 I will post more information about Blackpink’s digital collection impact in my newsletter (link in the profile). #Web3 #DigitalFashion

Steam Next Fest Tip 12 Don't stop outreach! You should be reaching out to relevant media and content creators pre-Next Fest, during Next Fest and even post-Next Fest (as long as your demo is still playable). There are too many demos available during Next Fest, and it's only a week long. As long as your demo is available to play, you should be pitching it. You only get one shot at Next Fest, so get the most out of every minute of it. #GameIndustry #VideoGameIndustry #Steam #NextFest

Steam Next Fest is only a week long. However, your outreach shouldn't stop as long as your demo is playable. With the number of publicly playable demos growing with each Next Fest, and the festival duration staying the same, the competition is absurd. That said, there are content creators, influencers and media that would love to play your demo if they knew it existed. Start pitching your demo before the start of Next Fest, during the week of the festival and even after the festival is over (as long as your demo is still playable). #GameDev #IndieGameDev #GameMarketing

Envision a spectacular event with 40 players converging for an electrifying 2-hour session of the #Affluent game! My previous record was a mere 15 participants, but now the prospect of hosting 30 or, dare I dream, all 40 players is nothing short of awe-inspiring! Picture a grand lecture theatre as our potential venue, showcasing the remarkable journey we're about to embark upon. Managing both the logistics and this sizable gathering is an exhilarating challenge and opportunity that I couldn't have imagined just months ago. A mere three months back, I would have dismissed the notion of such a workshop as impossible. Today, I firmly believe it can be achieved; there's always a solution waiting to be uncovered. One intriguing option I am exploring is... What sets this upcoming game workshop apart: is its integration with technology, which promises an experience that's both educational and undeniably interesting. As the venture into uncharted territory, I eagerly seek innovative ideas and fresh perspectives to make this event nothing short of legendary.
