The article (as far as I read) fails to mention the that layoffs have hit then entire tech sector. Not just games.
I lost my job (iOS dev and actually a games dev job) twice in ‘24. I don’t think it is necessarily a reflection of the games industry.
There are some really nice games this year, if you know where to look. I’m playing Uncle Chop’s Rocket Repair and it’s awesome. So fun, so inventive, great visuals, mechanics and soundtrack.
Deadlock has also gotten a fair chunk of my time. I scratches the same itch as DOTA and a little bit of CS too.
Creeper World got a new instalment, too. Different from the 4 mainline games, it’s new and fresh and fun.
Ooh, new Creeper World? Underrated games, though the concept was tough for me to get my head wrapped around for a little bit.

I blasted through the campaign. If it’s anything like 4 I’m expecting 4000 good community levels.
Jesus man that is brutal sorry to hear you’re going through that.
I am in IT, also lost two jobs this year, and getting a new one took like 3 weeks and some trying, which is unusually long
it's good to hear things like this because my friends are taking 6 months to a year to find a new job and they're all smarter than me
I was looking for 3 months each time. I have like 15 years exp!
I have 15 years as well and I can't find shit
Yoooo how the fuck did I miss a new creeper world ?
IXE. It’s new and fun
