Financial risk generated by long dev cycles could mean that one poor launch can shutter a whole studio and even kill a franchise. On the other hand, this crisis could create a vacuum where brilliant indie projects can thrive.
The #gameindustry may face a "time crisis" as AAA franchises require #gamedev cycles of 5-10+ yrs – creating pressure on #gamedevs to avoid mistakes and leading to diminished fan excitement.

Hades is a masterful twist on the roguelike genre, where the structure serves the story. As a roguelite, Hades’ death/failure progression loop is central to its design – with every failed run rewarding players with resources that allow them to get stronger and advance the narrative.
Hades is an essential case study for game development students because its design prioritizes the player experience by making failure feel like progress, respecting player time, and achieving deep narrative integration.

In DRIFTED, the gliding mechanic & minimalist art are intentional design constraints that contribute to the environmental storytelling. I love the idea of guiding a fragile paper airplane through a dark, unwelcoming world. Hopefully, it will be released in early 2026; can’t wait to check it out!
In Drifted, created by indie developer Chi Hu (UrbanFox), the player controls a paper plane gliding through monochromatic environments. Hu chose the minimalist aesthetic and flying mechanic to work within dev limitations.

Deviation Games boasted such a massive amount of talent – but a “perfect storm” of factors in what is already a volatile industry can kill projects … and sometimes the studios themselves. Hoping to see members of this team put out some innovative titles in the near future.
According to former SVP Louis Castle, Deviation Games closed last year due to a confluence of external and internal factors—including burn rate, co-founder departure, and pulling of PlayStation funding.
