Gamified - The Show

The business of gaming, Gamified.

Weekly discussions about the industry, delivered as a game instead of a lecture.

Incredible to get the founders perspective directly

Adam @fern on why @PirateNation and @ProofOfPlay are moving away from P2E mechanics.

Gamified had an insane 40 minute debate this week on a simple OVER/UNDER

If you ran a game studio today, would you replace 30% of your headcount with AI?

“I don’t want to hear any more f*cking whining out of the United States... your jobs went to China... AI is the thing that’s going to bring it back.” @chrisheatherly

@SamSteffanina @Lemz_42 we're so back

[Sam Steffanina @SamSteffanina]

Reaction to the new version of Gamified has been great.

It's humbling starting over on YouTube but I'm confident we'll be the #1 show for the business side of games in a year.

No one cares about improving their product like me and @Lemz_42 do.

Little preview of coming attractions

My weekend vibe coding project was a gamified interface and show controls for @GamifiedShow.

We’re gonna lean into this idea of it being a game show about games. I’ve got it working with a socket server that’s lightening fast and I’ve even got chat, motion graphics, voting.

I’ve realized making game show like this is pretty easy actually. I expect we will see more of this. Just too cost prohibitive before.

Hopefully we get it going in the next week or so….
