This video is not just a great reminder of the amazing work that SpecialEffect does, but also a great reminder of how much joy video games can bring, and how we should never take our ability to easily play them for granted.

The average studio is missing out on 20-30% of revenue each year by not optimising their long-tail revenue management. Even studios that do a good job can miss out on major revenue opportunities. A (long) thread:
