And the wishlist outcome
Hey there, I am Bee, running my own studio Cubenary and working on my passion project.
Witchery Academy is a cosy life sim where you play as a wizard apprentice. You train your magical skills by attending lessons at a magic academy.
As a small indie studio of 2 people, developing a great game is not enough; we also have to promote it, so people know about it.
The following graphic is the daily wishlist activity we’ve been gathering since we’ve published our Steam Page on January 2021, and we couldn’t be happier with our results.

How to use the dot product operation in Unreal Engine using C++ and Blueprints
When I work on gameplay mechanics, I often stumbled across situations where I need to apply maths.
When implementing my NPC (Non-player characters), I face a similar situation like the example I will show you here.
The dot product operation is one of them, it’s handy!

Unique gifts for your friends and family
You know that feeling on Sunday afternoons where the wheater is not your best friend, is cold outside and there is nothing to watch on Netflix?
Sundays are a stranger days; Your mind is getting ready for the next day, the dreadful Monday when a new week of work begins. It’s too late to do anything productive but the perfect day to enjoy yourself.
I am fascinated by puzzles, mysteries, riddles anything that makes my mind work. …
Wacky, cute, goofy, wholesome game to enjoy on this hot weather
I’ve been following Ooblets for a few years, and I think they’re one of the most famous indie dev couple making this wholesome colorful goofy game that I am falling in love with.
It’s not just another farming sim game mixed with Pokémon style creatures, it’s much more than that. This couple has created an adorable game with lots of wacky moments that make me smile.
Farming games are not my top favorite game but I do enjoy them, and I especially love the sim life aspect of those…
Hey, Twitter, my game is out there, look how cool it is! No? Nobody?

Yeah, that happens, all the time…it is the harsh truth I’ve learnt the hard way after many years as an indie dev
I released my first indie title last year, and I did a lot of things wrong marketing-wise….
Hard to accept but it’s never late to amend your mistakes.
No matter how good and amazing your game is if no one knows about it.
