Have you ever seen such joy as a 4 year old realising they can play as Cappy in Super Mario Odyssey and collect Power Moons doing trick jumps as a team with their Mum?

Brings back fond memories of playing Tails in Sonic 2. Low peril co-op companions is a greatly under-utilised source of joy.

I’ve worked with Steve at 3 different companies now, this is a great thread on, effectively, how the games industry needs to mature if it’s to survive.

And it will survive, because people absolutely love playing games.
1) The Games Industry Implosion – why and how.

Here are 25 paragraphs based on my personal observations over a significant period of working in games dev at all levels of experience and disciplines. Discussion is appreciated. Misdirected fury and insults are not.

Hi BSky! Gonna be posting a bunch of different but always interesting things on this account. I've been an artist/AD in the games industry since 2010, the past couple of years I switched to TA and #procgen programming roles. Here's a 3d modelling program I'm making to learn C++ with #raylib

I've created a "Procedural Generation" Starter Pack in an attempt to gather together a bunch of lovely people doing amazing things with #ProcGen. I would love to hear about anyone you know that would be a great fit to add! Please share to help it grow too 💞

Hi 👋 I'm Ed a #GameDev who's worked in AAA and Indie for a surprisingly long time. Sometimes I write code and chase 0 bugs, most of the time I write strategy docs and chase 0 Slack notifications.
