Opinion: How will Project 2025 impact game developers?
The Heritage Foundation's manifesto for the possible next administration could do great harm to many, including large portions of the game development community.
The European game industry was recognized tonight at the Brighton, England-based conference; Development Legend went to Rare founders Tim and Chris Stamper, while Unity and others won, too.
Tonight in Brighton, England at the annual Develop conference, awards were handed out: Rare founders Tim and Chris Stamper were officially recognized with the Development Legend award, while Creative Assembly's Alien: Isolation picked up three awards, and Dontnod Entertainment's Life is Strange grabbed two.
The awards are open not just to game and developers, but also companies that service the game industry with development tools and other products.
