from The Razzle Dazzle Show · host Jared Gonzalez
This week on The Razzle Dazzle Show, we’re joined by Illia Bielikov, lead developer of SHADE Protocol and co-founder of Sparrow Bomb! With over a decade of experience, Illia has done it all—programming, UX, and game design—all while chasing one core idea: games should feel like a cohesive experience, not just mechanics thrown together. We dive into his journey from making Flash games on a PSP to overcoming a 5-year failed project, how that shaped his philosophy, and what it really takes to build something meaningful in today’s indie scene. Plus, we talk SHADE Protocol, creative discipline, and why Illia believes talent is a myth.
