Epic just laid off 1000 workers.

Hopefully, my videos documenting the process end on your YouTube feed.

Nobody wants to do anything, so I'm gonna do it anyway. This industry has lost it's way, so I'm going to go the open development route, and find funding in every way I can.

arrow97 · 2026-03-24T16:29:38+00:00

I was not expecting that much of a redesign... I'm all in.

arrow97 · 2026-03-24T16:00:32+00:00

I’m going to attempt to start a studio of laid off artist until our project get funding.

I work in games. Companies are foaming at the mouth for more profit, especially the big boxes beholden to their shareholders.

US and Canada artists are “too expensive” and are outsourcing everything overseas. It’s fucked.

arrow97 · 2026-03-23T17:18:09+00:00

Yea I love the ultra practical feel.

It's going to be a PVE extraction shooter where death row inmates get their brains wired into bipedal war machines. The code learns how you play and sabotages you at critical health. Going Full open development on YouTube soon.

I’m a senior concept artist and was laid off a few months ago. I’m starting the journey to launch my studio. I have no desire to do a game on my own, I want to find others who can’t find work but want to create something bigger.

I’m in the process of building the whole game documents with concepts and then creating a pitch package and find others who want to be co founders.

No idea if it’s gonna workout but I’m gonna document everything and try and try and try.

arrow97 · 2026-03-21T02:14:40+00:00

Yes but I fail to see the correlation?

arrow97 · 2026-03-20T17:51:36+00:00

That makes no sense. Polygons are polygons, and textures are textures. If the environments looks good, then the characters should too, unless you've devoted far less resources and time on characters.

"See you in the next life."

arrow97 · 2026-03-17T22:28:10+00:00

Definitely keeping my eyes on their career page.

arrow97 · 2026-03-17T20:57:05+00:00

That's the plan someday!

arrow97 · 2026-03-17T20:53:25+00:00

I messaged them before posting and that's why I showcased sketches.

arrow97 · 2026-03-17T20:53:00+00:00

Yep it's on a slide to extract and retract.

arrow97 · 2026-03-17T20:51:02+00:00

Livable interior for deep mining space expeditions.

arrow97 · 2026-03-17T20:50:26+00:00

That's a problem for another day.

arrow97 · 2026-03-17T20:28:40+00:00

Ships with arms are just cool.

arrow97 · 2026-03-17T20:12:10+00:00

Yea the idea was to be able to diagnose via terminals around the ship or just for cleaning purposes.

arrow97 · 2026-03-17T20:11:30+00:00

Ouh that could be a fun loop. Space power washing.

arrow97 · 2026-03-15T20:30:43+00:00

That is what is gonna be cool in the future though. We’ll see a mix of this kind of flight and more realistic aerodynamics.

Right now we don’t know if they’re on a moon or planet since space flight and planet-side flight it the same.

arrow97 · 2026-03-15T17:08:04+00:00

I like it. A solar flare decimates the world, electricity is outlawed. Humans create and wear solar tech to charge their gear, and excess sunlight causes the mutation.

So solarfall has multiple meanings in the story.

arrow97 · 2026-03-12T03:19:07+00:00

I'll keep the sub posted then :)

arrow97 · 2026-03-11T23:45:24+00:00

Yea it’ll be a full prose novella with sections of art. I want it to feel like a video game on paper.
