we don't just need to be funding small studios to make one game, we need to be funding them to make the ones they can fuck up before they can make the ones they learn from.
The winner takes all-instant hit-meme-flywheel mentality that has completely overtaken the games industry and even #indiedev is poison.
It deteriorates the space for risk and sustainable growth, until all that's left is to to either make slot-machines or slop-machines.

🍞In the 1940s, UK households ate around 1.6kg of bread per person per week (two whole standard sliced loaves). In 2024, it was 446g.
Bread consumption has halved since 1989.
Interesting fact from latest
Defra / ONS Family Food Survey.

So the 48 Jobs you can choose from are each linked to one of the 8 Trades, so you can't go selecting new combos, but I will absolutely share with you my favourite Job from each of the 8 Trades.
