When a game studio ships a solid game, it creates TWO valuable products: 1. A solid game. 2. The team that spent years learning how to work together make a game. Because Western studios keep disbanding #2 while development cycles get longer; we will inevitably see less of #1.

Here with Asbjørn @mytino.bsky.social at their booth at Spillexpo. They are developing a very interesting game called “Fractala Sandbox”, based on particle physics. As far as I remember, it’s done in their own engine in C++, based on SDL, and the physics run on the GPU. Impressive!
