It's come to our attention that a company we were unaware of has the same name as us. That company has recently published a game promoting genocide. We are not affiliated with them.

We're excited to announce that today marks the start of 2nd week for our latest hire, Kieron. We have been working with Creative Fuse and @UniofNewcastle to break some of the entry barriers into the games industry and expand our team.

[CrescentGames @games_crescent]

@UniofNewcastle With the layoffs last week, it felt right to wait with posting. It is good to remember that in these uncertain economic times, there are companies growing. For everyone affected by the layoffs, I hope this week will be better! Below are links that might help with job search

@Ohannes12 @ArmenianLawyers However, your tweet is the one linking to the legally registered company and including a name - neither of which is affiliated with the game in question. I don't believe that developer is legally registered

[CrescentGames @games_crescent]

@Ohannes12 @ArmenianLawyers I have already made a public statement, https://t.co/YBvGv6Db2P
I have nothing to do with the youtube channel. If it is the youtube that is linked to the game's Steam page then I presume it's the actual developer's youtube page

@meloushka1987 Thank you!

[CrescentGames @games_crescent]

@Ohannes12 @ANCA_DC Thank you for deleting it. We have no interest in any affiliation with that game. I would suggest you go to the game's Steam page and click their social media links on the Steam page, Discord and Youtube. Steam also has a report option, it is a flag sign.

[CrescentGames @games_crescent]

@Ohannes12 @ANCA_DC However, you are the one defaming and slandering the wrong person, including a person's name and attaching it to a video game they had no knowledge of, claiming they made it without doing your due diligence. That's defamation and slander

[CrescentGames @games_crescent]

@Ohannes12 @ANCA_DC We have already contacted a lawyer. We are legally registered. We are in no way affiliated with that game.

[CrescentGames @games_crescent]

@AzizHS82 You tag us in a post about a game that has nothing to do with us. Doing so is claiming the two are associated. They are not.
People have been posting my full name, tagging me and the company and encouraging people to send me private messages. You are contributing

[CrescentGames @games_crescent]

@kyra_kaixin To clarify. 'Answers' doesn't refer to the candidate asking candid questions related to staff psychological safety. It refers to the questions the interviewer is asking. If you are asked what you enjoy most about your job they are assessing your job skills, not political views

Want to work in games? Want to know what makes juniors stand out and what common mistakes occur in applications? I thought I'd make a thread to help those looking to get their foot in the industry on what they should/shouldn't do from the perspective of an experienced developer

[CrescentGames @games_crescent]

10 additional mistakes commonly seen, plus a couple of bonus tips and resources
