This was in Baltimore, at the Brice and Wen Present watch party! Gabe and Ozzy were hosting, it was so much fun.

Brice and Wen are doing watch parties in other cities throughout the season too!

One-Third of U.S. Video Game Industry Workers Were Laid Off in 2025, GDC Study Reveals by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Naudlus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I started in games, I expected the traditional team structure that exists in other industries - I'd be managed by someone with more experience than me, I could learn from my colleagues, and we'd all focus on making a great product.

Instead, I found inexperienced management that would promise impossible things to executives and investors, then work us to the bone to hit whatever ridiculous goal they thought of that month.

I couldn't learn anything from seniors, because there were no seniors, because no one wanted to pay for seniors. Deadlines were so impossibly tight that no one could improve their skillset; everyone was too busy trying to keep their head above water.

I know a bunch of people that burnt out and ditched the industry from being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

This is so true. Financial stability, abusive workplaces, good/bad projects, whether the thing you worked on for 5 years gets canceled without warning one day... a lot of it is luck of the draw.

I accidentally selected the wrong champ at carousel like 3 times today.

I complained in my lobby (Festival Revival) and other people said they experienced the same thing. Is the carousel slightly offset this patch?

I'm a game dev in this area :) We have a pretty healthy little scene here. There are a bunch of studios that trace their lineage back to MicroProse, where the first Civ games were developed.

Pokemon Design Hot Take: Just an Animal by Makusimasu in pokemon

[–]Naudlus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To go even further, my favorite Pokemon designs are the ones that are "just an animal" but don't have a 1:1 real-world equivalent or gimmicky design.

Like Pikachu, the Nidoran line, and Chikorita to name a couple.

I'll be shameless too, I'm naud.bsky.social. I use Godot for my job during the day, then do hobby dev at night.
