If you missed my recent talk on Game Production at the GI Live event, you can watch it again here. Targeted at those just starting out in game production, or considering if it's the right career for them.
In this @GIBiz #Masterclass, our Development Manager, Doug Pennant, discusses what game producers need to know before joining the industry. Doug talks about the responsibilities of producers and skills & tools every producer should be looking into.

One thing AI is superior at making is uncanny valley nightmare fuel
Since leaving CA one of the biggest culture shocks was no longer being part of the game industry, and how much conversation I'm no longer part of.
Hope to reconnect with the development world again before long, but in the mean time, I hope you all have a fantastic GDC 2023!

I can't tell how humbling it is to see two pups far more skilled with a lightsaber than I ever was.
