I didn’t start this with a budget. I started it with time and stubborn belief. Riftwalker is built by one person, shaped in public, and kept alive by the people watching it grow. If The Mandalorian, Dune, and Max Payne left a mark on you, this world probably will...

Our campaign and the Komboa Kenya movement will not be funded by cartels, because it is a movement by the people and for the people. Every shilling given by an honest Kenyan carries more value than any cheque written in pursuit of favour. This is a campaign built on trust, sacrifice, and a shared belief in a better future for our country. Stand with it. Support it. Own it.

"One person is loved by one person. Then it feels like I have everything in the world, but this is true for me and iKONIC, and I am loved by many people like this. This is a very happy thing that I can't express in words... #Bobby

Got laid off. So I built Riftwalker. A solo-dev, open-world, story-driven sci-fi bounty hunter game. Seven planets. A living world. A Void you’re not meant to survive. If you miss grounded sci-fi with risk and reward, this is for you. Wishlist Riftwalker. (link in comment)

This is the most insane story of 2025 The number 1 game in the entire world right now was built and shipped by a single person Made $20,000,000+ legit over night TylerTVGS built a Breaking Bad simulator by himself and now it has more players than games 1000+ devs worked on This is the power you have in 2025 Literally ANYONE can do this AI gives the power for ANY single person to come up with an idea, build it, and ship it no matter how little skills you have If you're thinking "oo you gotta be special and talented to do something like that" I promise you're wrong I did the same thing. I built and shipped an AI tool for X by myself and now it's my full time business I truly believe this is the single greatest economic opportunity of the last 1,000 years If you haven't started using Grok yet to plan and build apps, even if you have 0 experience, you're letting down your entire blood line Carve out your calendar, copy the prompt below, and run it today: "I have 0 programming experience at all but would like to build an app. Here is a list of my 5 interests. What are challenges than I can build with software? Choose the easiest challenge to solve then build me a plan for building it even though I've never programmed before in my life." Don't waste this opportunity.

A little throwback story tonight 🌙.. in 2008 I was to give one of my first keynote speeches in NYC but the sound system broke ( they were smaller events back then 😂). But I didn’t want to let everyone down so I told everyone to go outside and I gave the speech on the side of the street in nyc 🏙️ .. then I did Q&A and this came up … too many of you are looking for “the moment” the “tipping point” people thought I had “made it” in 2008 … 16 years ago … and yet I didn’t think I had even started .. I don’t feel I’ve started as I type this .. to me my personal and professional journey is a forever game and I’m not looking for a breakthrough moment or the stats to show me the way .. I’m focused on building .. brick 🧱by brick 🧱 … day by day I build VaynerMedia and VeeFriends and everything else I am associated with .. and that’s how it will always be ❤️ share this with a kid who has a dream 💭

Played this a lot for the past few days, it is Bitcraft, a MMO with a single megaserver, a massive world where players build empires and cooperate, skill up etc. Sense of community is great, this is the city i live in created and managed by sweet people. And i have a goat mount

I started freelancing before i knew what it meant and across all platforms I’ve made over $200k All i do is listen to the good people on the internet and build my way through the pains, I’m gradually finding it comfortable to share my wins too. If you are scared, I was too If you don’t know what you are doing, I still don’t know what I’m doing as well If you don’t know where to start, I started on facebook (you can start from anywhere) If you don’t know what to start with, I started with a dead desktop computer I revived in the office where i did my SIWES If you think you need helper, well, i didn’t have one, i even sponsored myself through school with the money i made from doing casual work at Dangote salt company NASCON Maybe your current situation is worse than mine was, but i’m a living testimony that you can start from where you’re with what you have and you will still turn out fine.

This was built over a century ago. Like the old stone barns and the banks, it was built by a generation who left a mark on the landscape. My modern fence posts will rot out and steel barns will rust away. What am I leaving on the farm for the next generation?
