Yesterday, we had the pleasure of welcoming Robin Andersson (Karlskoga inhabitant) and Robin Skog (Hammarö inhabitant) from The Gang to hear more about their impressive journey as a company. Today they are over 200 employees at the full remote game studio! 🚀 🎮 Perfect timing to learn more about how to create games in Roblox and Fortnite as this year's newly started Fasttrack participants are building UEFN games to test the full production circle before jumping on to their own game projects in two weeks. Thanks a lot Robin and Robin for visiting us and welcome back to Karlstad! Thanks also Embracer Games Archive and Mikael for showing us some epic games and gaming artifacts from the worlds biggest archive of video games ✨ #gamedev #uefn

Ett stort steg för dataspelsbranschen och spelkulturen. Riksdagens kulturutskott tillsätter för första gången en utvärderingsgrupp för att genomlysa spelbranschen. Kul att se att Värmland tar täten genom riksdagsledamoten Lars Mejern Larsson vilken leder arbetet. Ett prov på politisk enighet och en vilja att stärka svensk spelkultur och dataspelsbransch. https://lnkd.in/dzPvx29e
