Feedback highly appreciated. The full devlog can be accessed here: https://lnkd.in/dT6gKYAD Freedom Fortress is a solo indie game.

The underwhelming box office performance of the new Borderlands movie offers a valuable lesson for Hollywood. First, not every gaming IP has a fandom that automatically translates into viewership. Second, the movie actually needs to be good. Similar to comic book adaptations, high sales figures alone don't guarantee a blockbuster. The real key lies in understanding what makes the title special and why it resonates with its audience—an intangible yet crucial element. Ryan Reynolds captured what made Deadpool stand out among more popular comic book characters. Studios must dig deeper into video game IPs to avoid more misfires like Borderlands and DOOM and aim for more successes like Super Mario Bros and, yes, even Sonic.

Have you heard of The Great Game of Business? Because once you walk down our hallways, you'll definitely hear about the legendary GGOB! We checked in with Emily, our recruiter, to get the scoop on what makes gameplay special at #JennerAg. ❓Q: What does Jenner Ag do to make playing the Great Game of Business easy and fun to understand for associates? ❗A: The Great Game of Business (GGOB) is our open-book management way of doing business. Being transparent with our financials helps associates figure out their “why.” Once they have their “why,” it motivates them to work hard, and the GGOB helps teach how the business runs and why it works. With GGOB, they are finally able to connect the dots and gain a deep understanding of the business world. With GGOB, each department plays two mini-games a year, and we play an all-company game once a year.

Tired of the churn? This ain't some reality show for wannabes. Business is about building a tribe, not a fling. Naval’s wisdom is simple, long-term games with long-term people. Your network is your launchpad, not your exit strategy. Trust is the ultimate currency, the secret sauce to sustainable growth. Invest in relationships with your clients, partners, and your team. These are the bonds that fuel real success, not a fleeting sale. Who are your long-term players? Time to start building. #relationshipfirst #navalisright #fridayvibes #anythinginmetal

With dice in hand and imagination in mind, we embarked on quests, defeated dragons and discovered new skills last week. 🧙🏻♂️🐲   Thank you Olga for introducing us to the world of Dungeons and Dragons as part of our #BAYOONIVERSITY. Because of our top-secret elf technology called "Internet", our colleagues from other locations were also able to take part. 💻   DnD showed us that it's not just about quick throws, but also about strategic planning and #teamwork - just like in our daily work in engineering #medicalsoftware. The adventure full of secret dungeons and dangerous dragons showed us once again: Heroes rarely stand alone, but always as a #team. (No LinkedIn post without learning, huh? 🤓)   We're even better at medical software solutions than we are at contextual transitions. Convince yourself: https://lnkd.in/e4hXyxsb
