In a startup, the founders usually wear many hats. I myself started as a backend developer, now I’m also into Business Development for our latest Trading Card Game “Dengen Chronicles”. Over time, thanks to my online PR activity, I managed to build a substantial list of super useful resources.
Lists of blogs in particular could be your ace in the hole when you are looking for reviews or featured articles. So, I thought that sharing my lists might be of some help to you all. Consider it a kind of handy reference.
Before going any further, I would like to point out that:
Some of the blogs here are just “tech blogs”. Don’t be afraid to contact those bloggers, they might be interested in your game.
Contact email addresses are not always provided. However, you can easily find them.
