A little list of encouraging, supporting, jerk-intolerant Internet spaces.

  • Glorious Trainwrecks
    The forums are pretty quiet, but the people are lovely and talk a bunch via comments on the games.
  • ALT G's
    A Discord channel with a lot of Glorious Trainwrecks overlap.
  • gamemaking.social
    An offshoot of ❇this place❇. It's a Mastodon instance, so it's a microblogging thing like Twitter.
    If you're interested in joining, and/or you're new to Mastodon, see: Guide:gamemaking.social
  • Game Making Tools Forum
    Another offshoot of here. A new forum, which is also open to hosting subforums for any tools you're making.

Maybe?

I haven't joined any of these, but maybe they're good?
