Juggling full time jobs, developing a game, and seeing human beings in real life for at least five minutes out of each day takes a lot of effort, and we know we can’t survive this alone. So we realized early on that this process depends wholly on community. We are, at the end of the day, just a couple people lost in a ruin of bricks. It’s gritty and tangible and glorious.īut our team is also older and wiser now – a lot of our towers of brick have fallen apart – and we know that it’s exceedingly dangerous to go alone. The evidence doesn’t lie: people make better games when they want to play them themselves – it’s that creative drive so many developers feel when they start building something, digging their hands into the dirt to form that first brick. A certain amount of selfishness is to be encouraged, though maybe not applauded, in game design. As much as we love everyone (equally and fully and forever and ever), we’re making Arcadian Atlas for ourselves.Īnd that’s good, in fact.
