I was interviewed by Tucker for one hour, talked about the end of Nerial in its current form, my main drive as a game designer and what happened over the last 13 years. It was lovely to chat to him and look back at all this and what's next. www.youtube.com/watch?v=San5...

Today, @nerial.bsky.social made a major move. François Alliot, the studio's founder, has separated from @devolverdigital.com and is headed back into the indie scene. Here's an interview all about what that means for him, the team, and how they reached this point! www.youtube.com/watch?v=San5...

I think that’s very true. There’s a clear “how do we jump ship from social media and web 3” in all this. Meta is a specialist, tried with VR and crypto, nothing really worked, running out of ground to find the next big idea.
