Being able to get in contact easily (with the laid off) would be rough, and creating a new studio with no passive income and only promises is a hard sell. But that’s honestly not a terrible idea. Get devs to coalesce into indie studios ready to make whatever passion game they’ve had rattling around.

Did they ever support that for free?

Man that game is tempting me to try to find a switch 2. I really want to play it but that’s such s hefty price.

Or even, like, 0 to 50.

I mean, that still is dope as heck.

Gonna have to do it forever until businesses figure out that half of what makes a game good is that it needs to be a literal passion/art project, and not just a checklist of shit that needs to get done.

I honestly feel like the “you’re trying to hard to pronounce the country/city/food name” vibe is silly anyways. If they pronounce it “Bærthélōnã” in Barcelona, then why shouldn’t I try to pronounce it that way? Especially these days in our hyper-connected world, I don’t really have an excuse of “well I never knew they said it that way”.
