TDC #06: From Indie Game Dev to Top Unity MCP with Ivan Murzak

Ivan Murzak spent the early 2010s shipping Evil Cogs, a Limbo-style mobile platformer that hit 5 million downloads on Android by squeezing performance out of phones that had no business running it. A decade later, he's a Microsoft MVP maintaining what's become the most-downloaded open-source Unity MCP server - the one anyone trying to get Claude, Cursor, or Copilot to actually do useful work inside the Unity editor probably ends up using.🔹 Links:Unity MCP: https://github.com/IvanMurzak/Unity-MCPIvan's YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Ivan_Murzak_Dev🔹 Chapters:00:00 Intro03:22 What We've Been Playing13:49 Evil Cogs: 5M Downloads and Limbo by Accident44:09 Why You Shouldn't Give Your Game to Your Mom01:06:17 Building the Most-Downloaded Unity MCP01:20:05 The MCP Zoo and Why CLI Is Winning01:48:46 Reflection All the Way Down02:04:11 Does the CS Degree Still Make Sense?Episode URL: https://tech-debt.club/episodes/6-tdc-06-from-indie-game-dev-to-top-unity-mcp-with-ivan-murzak
