Come join the Boston Game Dev [Discord](https://discord.gg/pTq5qs6a6k), where the event will be live!www.meetup.comAnother excellent piece from @kerrblimey.bsky.social about how frivolous side work clauses hold the game industry back:
Chris KerrNEW: I spoke with multiple video game developers and a U.S. employment lawyer to learn more about restrictive side clauses that often prevent employees at major companies from pursuing hobbyist work or personal projects. In an industry renowned for creativity, why are we stifling it?
Weird accomplishments: Hung out with an astronaut (Mark Kelly) Unity handed me the runtime fee exclusive on a silver platter for some reason Worked a Magic School Bus reference into 2x games Paul Rudd clapped for me Shot a Power Rangers fan film that made Devin Faraci explode with rage
Cat Manningweird accomplishments: there is a pretty bad 600+ page novel whose existence is directly my fault. it has 4.5 stars on amazon. I (with the team I was on) could have easily made Riot a couple hundred million dollars, conservatively I own a one of a kind couture piece that is monetarily worthless

This is a thing every exec keeps talking about and it is driving me up the waaaaaallllllllllllllll. Yes, it’s the high salaries that are the problem, not the company leaders who slow teams down through poor decisionmaking and greenlight games that take a while to make.
KotakuAfter several years running touting its big push to develop video games in-house, Hasbro has canceled multiple in-development projects and seems to be backing off. https://kotaku.com/hasbro-56-million-impairment-charge-video-games-canceled-2000718018
