Crunch Culture and What You Can Do To Escape...Hint, It Ain't On Twitter

from Game Dev Advice: The Game Developer's Podcast · host The HP Video Game Podcast Network - John JP Podlasek

The industry’s dirty little secret is in the spotlight again (just Google “intense crunch”) and surprise, everyone’s shocked. Why? It’s been going on since games were on floppy discs. Everyone’s preaching unions. But they’re not going to be your savior, at least any time soon. So instead of waiting for the union tooth fairy, hear my advice for researching and applying to companies that take culture and work-life balance seriously. They exist. Take action and rise above the Twitter ranting. (See gamedevadvice.com for in-depth show notes and other details.) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
