Casual subscriber's guide to our YouTube

I am writing this text under a steadfast gaze of Karina (ex-Head of Sales at Appodeal/Stack) and under heavy trolling of Lera, our resident Gen Z artist - that's the vibe.

I am Olle, but you may know me as Olegas or Олег or Aleh, that loud dude who used to evangelize at Unity and then did something crazy at King.

I am writing this text under casual watch by Karina (ex-Head of Sales at Appodeal/Stack) and under heavy trolling of Lera, our resident Gen Z artist.

That’s the vibe.

The Worst of Us

The anti-corporate corporate video blog. A weekly show where we make hilarious fun of each other (© Mr Waffle) while talking about what’s important to our startup - gamedev shows, LinkedIn stories, Lithuanian startup visa application, an article in a Catalan newspaper.

Or a rant about mourning borders, wedding effects and matchbox people in our customers’ minds, like in the latest episode.

Also, it will take you 32 seconds to figure out why the episode is titled “hangover“.

Gamedev Stories

The idea is to open up the game development bosses from their human sides.

Really. How do you even approach a director from Bioware or Guerrilla games at a conference? Would you say “your slides are so beautiful“? Mm-m-right?

After watching our videos though, you can ask John Epler about Stalker, Metro, kids, dogs; you can ask Ben McCaw about cosplay, TikTok, how to hold a piece of paper and look so happy.

DevGAMM Firesides

4 days, 4 heads, 4 stories. We invited 4 heads of various gamedev studios - mobile, indie, AAA, publishing - to reflect on the year 2020 and the future as they see it. Everyone gets the same 4 questions.

My favourite insight is Fawzi’s advice of how to hold sneeze =) It is becoming an internal joke now, but you’re a subscriber, so are considered internal.

No spam, no links, no BS

Lera insists this is a letter to a friend, not a piece of marketing. So there is just one single link today - our YouTube channel.

If you feel like it, you can also look for devrelevents on

  • Twitch to watch raw and unedited interviews with game devs

  • Instagram to get casual 2-3 minute featurettes and previews

Reasons to stay

We experiment a lot with live streaming formats and platforms. Our twitch, YouTube, Discord and other resources are like an R&D lab.

We're not whatever influencers doing content for ads and dopamine. We do this for companies who pay us for content production.

But our subscribers get to see whatever we do before anybody else.

Also The Worst of Us - we do it for free, experiment a lot, it is always the hottest product. Not always successful, but always the freshest.

A sincere thank you and a virtual hug for reading it to the last line <3
