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.
