Not A Shark Company

From Pitch Coaching to #Victory - A Year-Long Journey with Two Inspiring Indie Studios   A year ago at Nordic Game Helsinki, I met two ambitious indie studios - Cozy Game Studio and Silent Factory. They attended my Pitch Coaching Workshop, eager to refine their ideas. Afterward, both took a leap by booking my limited Indie Coaching package, an offer exclusive to session attendees.   Over the next two months, we dived deep into what would make their games stand out. We refined their pitch decks, worked out a perfect product strategy, and polished game design aspects. Fast-forward to today, and 𝘽𝙊𝙏𝙃 𝙨𝙩𝙪𝙙𝙞𝙤𝙨 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙣 𝙢𝙖𝙟𝙤𝙧 𝙥𝙞𝙩𝙘𝙝 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙨 🏆 one at Sweden Game Conference (by Sweden Game Arena), the other at Pocket Gamer Connects Helsinki! Their achievements are a testament to their talent, dedication, and resilience. I have no doubt they would have succeeded on their own, but seeing our work together contribute to this moment makes me incredibly proud.   And now, I want to help more indie gems shine! I am launching a “𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗻 𝗔𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱-𝗪𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗲 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗣𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗵” package soon. If you want an early bird discount, drop an "Interested" below or DM me directly. Let’s bring your game to the spotlight next!   Let’s celebrate 𝗖𝗼𝘇𝘆 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗼 (CEO Lena Mech) and 𝗦𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 (CEO Chris C.), and here’s to all indie devs dreaming big! 💪 #IndieDev #GameDesign #PitchSuccess #GameIndustry #IndieGames #SwedenGameConference2024

It's that time again for another #ThursdAI update from Olamia AI, and it's been another exciting week 💪 First off, I'm blown away by the response I've had since launching. Over 500 unique users from across the globe have given the Steam Review Analysis tool a spin! Game devs, publishers, and service providers from US, UK, Poland, China, Sweden, and South Korea 🌏 A lot of the feedback I've received has been along the lines of "Dan, this tool just scratches the surface." And you know what? You're absolutely right (I won't tag you) I've designed it to give you just a taste of what's possible - if you're reading this and you are interested in a deep dive, drop me a message, the app has certainly evolved and I would love to showcase the real power. Other feedback received: "Why not just use ChatGPT?" Fair question! But here's the secret sauce: Olamia AI isn't just one #AI - it's powered by a super-team of OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, and Perplexity AI, all working together to give you the best conversational chat, deep analysis, and real-time knowledge. In nerd terms, it's like having the Avengers of AI at your fingertips! 🚀 Late yesterday evening was a big milestone - I gave my first presentation to an agency! Five slides, a dash of the Sheridan charm, and a live demo - I was buzzing with excitement throughout. It was fantastic to see what piques people's interest. This left me feeling powered up, and I can't wait to schedule more demos. Behind the scenes, I'm still burning the midnight oil (after I've ended my day job, put the kids down etc). I've started to expand the tools, polish the core interface, and transform Olamia AI from a collection of random links into a sleek, integrated platform. Now, here's the meat of this update - many of the users have expressed interest in competitor analysis. It's a rabbit hole for sure, as there are more data points to deal with. Then I had an idea, Why not create a tool where YOU can upload your data and interact with it using AI? Ask questions, create charts, make comparisons - all without drowning in Excel sheets. (Shoutout to my buddy who inspired this - I hope this helps you get back to actually playing games!) 🎮 And so, the Olamia CSV Analyzer tool was born! It's no longer a secret project running on my local machine, in about a week or so, it'll be ready for its online debut (sneak peek attached to this post) 👇 That's all for this week's update. I would love to hear from you in the comments or via DM if... You're interested in a demo, you've got a problem that AI or an automated solution could solve, you want to be the FIRST to take the CSV Analyzer for a test spin! If you read this far... you're awesome! #GamesIndustry #Entrepreneurship #AI #OlamiaAI
