Bethesda Game Studios’ Post

Episode 50: We talk about how we got started and some big games that are either out or coming. It’s our origin story and just me and Kendall enjoying the journey so far https://lnkd.in/erAgKnED

Here's a progress update for the Call of Duty: Black Ops III Zombies map that I've been making with the Radiant Editor. I've been having fun learning the intricacies of the editor to figure out what made one of my favorite games of all time tick! #leveldesign #gamedev #gamedevstudents

In the latest episode of "It Actually Happened During My Lifetime," the game Banana, where the entire gameplay loop involves... clicking a banana... to change the number printed on top, was the most played game on Steam last night. Today, it holds the number two spot, boasting more players than Destiny 2, Rust, War Thunder, Warframe, Monster Hunter: World, Sid Meier's Civilization VI, Stardew Valley, Team Fortress 2, and HELLDIVERS 2 combined. If you want to understand where the break has occurred between pouring $400M into the games grist mill and having "financially profitable AAA success" predictably come out the other side, start here with this solo-developed game that involves... clicking on a banana. In the meantime, I'm going to go... eat a banana. P.S. Watch out for the Attack of the Clones. There are a million of them coming or already here.

#80lv so, a whole bunch of things up guys, I’ll try to go point by point here :) * 80.LV PS Alliance is an important first step in a global program we are initiating, and it’s aiming for two things, facilitating more work and opportunities to partners/individual developers and providing developers, clients and enterprise companies (including outside of the gaming industry) with digital content and UGC related opportunities.  * We will announce two-three more waves of partnerships before GDC, with more forces joining the fleet of services and capabilities for about 30-40 studios adding their expertise to the cause. We are also already working with about 200+ professional individual digital content creators, we begin to actively match to various platforms, clients and big opportunities in games, automotive, real estate, retail, you name it. Those numbers will be growing as well. Metasites quickly developing in global education, GR initiatives and sectors like real estate and we are doubling down for future scale to come in the second part of 2024.  * From the standpoint of tools, expect development/UGC contests and competitions, micro-contract management platforms, opportunities (sometimes highly customized ones) for indie game developers to port their game to multiple platforms, have access to licensed content and various forms of support in their business.  * We also traditionally help with arranging job search, consultancy, research, provide a light touch level of agency and connections between big business and digital content providers.   * Developers, developers, developers © We are intending to do our best, to provide with 80.lv an access to the platform, that will help every developer in the world to do things that they like, be able to express creatively and be properly rewarded for their efforts. There is a journey to be done here, but everyone starts with the first step, that's done, and let us begin :)
