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.
Last year, David Perry sold his cloud computing company to Sony for hundreds of millions of dollars. But before that, he gave this GDC 2004 talk on video game production.
GDC Vault revisits GDC 2004 this week, uncovering David Perry's 2004 production keynote, which focuses on tips for finding and making a license, based in part on his experience with the multi-million selling Enter The Matrix. Perry (who has since sold his cloud computing company Gaikai to Sony for hundreds of millions of dollars) urges publishers to allow producers to focus on one game at a time. He also offers several tips for making the perfect pitch for a licensed game. Finally, he suggests developers should be recognized individually for their talents and should hire publicists and agents to further establish themselves professionally. The free video is available to watch here.
