I’d like to return to this thread where I referred to the game industry as being a trash fire. Some corrected me to talk about record profits. How about record layoffs? I am fucking bereft at the state of it. 13.1K views · 235 likes · 21 reposts · 9 replies Open on X →

Congrats to Ardan on taking over our old (but much loved) space in Galway City centre! Romero Games moved to its new office in Dockgate on Merchants Road in 2023. 5.1K views · 10 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

What saddens me most is seeing veteran devs leave the industry entirely, taking decades of institutional knowledge with them. Younger devs who grew up loving games and dreamed of making them are wondering if there’s a future for them here at all. 2.4K views · 28 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

The fact that parts of the industry are reporting record profits while so many developers feel exhausted, uncertain, and disposable only makes the disconnect feel even greater. 1.5K views · 28 likes · 2 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

When the industry crashed in ’83, some studios didn’t survive and many friends lost their jobs. But the industry was also much smaller and less connected. 1.6K views · 20 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Today, the industry is massive, yet in just the last few years, 10s of thousands of devs have lost their jobs, including dozens at my own studio. Almost everyone knows someone who has been laid off, had projects canceled, lost funding, or left the industry altogether. 1.3K views · 22 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

In my 40+ years making games, this has felt like the hardest period to navigate for game devs. It’s difficult to find or hold onto work, difficult to secure funding, and difficult to break through and find an audience. Incredibly talented people are struggling. 435 views · 24 likes · 1 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

When I referred to the industry as being “crashier” now than it was in 1983, I meant how it feels to live and work in this industry as a developer, not in terms of industry revenue. 18.9K views · 55 likes · 2 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →
