For every layoffs in the gaming industry remember:
Behind every number is a person who once helped build the worlds others escape into and now struggles to stay in their own.
People who poured nights, weekends, and years of creativity into launches that defined this industry.

🧵Previously I’ve shared some thoughts on design decisions on making XR games but there are more!
Adding a few more to the list and hope it may provide more ideas on the considerations and perhaps have it as a sticky note while going through production.

If IGN has layoffs, nobody in games press is safe. If Microsoft has layoffs, nobody in platforms is safe. If Ubisoft and Bungie and NetEase have layoffs, nobody in game development is safe. If the Romeros get their funding pulled, no studio is safe.
It's rough out there, right now.

I've looked at a lot of resumes for aspiring translators and everytime I notice they have the relevant experience but they don't make it clear, meaning vendors are more likely to overlook them as potential freelancers.
Here's some resume advice if you're looking for freelance translation work.

Developing a game in extended reality is a tough topic due to more design choices to consider.
What could game developers do to ensure their game is fun while also catering to the immersive experience and maximizing the six degree of freedom aspect?
