No worries! Thanks for the response, appreciate it!

I'm looking for what I asked for in the original post; Insight from those that left gamedev for something else. I've been in games for 20yrs+, and am interested in hearing other perspectives.

"Perimenopause"

--what does that even mean
--people look at you with pity 👎

"Preparing for the Ascension"

Mmm, thanks but I'm looking the opposite direction. I've been in games 20yrs+

Old DeuTaranomy 🧶⚒️ @kindofstrange.com · 6h

For those that left #gamedev to do something else:

What was the tipping point?
What did you go on to do?
Any other insights to share?

Reskeets welcome and appreciated!

Good news: OpenAI has decided that its app that planned out a suicide for a depressed teenager is so safe they don't even need the protections that were supposed to stop that from happening.

Did an online networking event last week that was primarily people working in the non profit space.

Them: Oh video games! That must be fun!

Watching multiple friends worried about how they're going to pay for medical treatment for life-threatening illnesses is fucking heartbreaking. It's such a stark contrast to my partner's father's experience in NZ.
