I spoke to over 40 game developers whose companies had been impacted by layoffs in the last year. They shared with me the explanations companies gave them for what was causing the sudden loss of their livelihood, but they also told me why those explanations didn’t always seem to match reality.
I spent a lot of time and money on games this year and I haven’t played any of those, haven’t even heard of some of them. I doubt that interests anyone to hear but I said it anyway.
