Gran Turismo World Series: Three Continents, One Championship, Pure Drama
I'm standing outside the Orpheum Theatre in downtown Los Angeles, watching a team carefully position a custom-built Nissan GT-R into the parking lot. This car might become digital immortal today, scanned and added to Gran Turismo 7 for millions to drive. Inside the venue, twelve of the world's fastest virtual drivers are preparing for battle. But here's what makes this moment special: this isn't just an LA thing. These same drivers competed in London in June. They raced in Berlin in October…
Camp Level Up++: How Game Design Camps Are Building the Next Generation of Creators
A thirteen-year-old just built a Bluetooth speaker from a cigar box, designed a game level that made their dad cry, and laser-cut a stencil that's now hanging in their school's art gallery. This isn't exceptional. This is Tuesday at Camp Level Up++.
While traditional education debates whether to allow calculators in math class, Camp Level Up++ students are wielding laser cutters, programming game engines, and soldering circuits. The gap between what schools teach and what kids can…
Only 5% of AI Projects Reach Production: What Game Developers Need to Know
Here's a number that should terrify every VC who poured money into AI gaming startups: 95%.
That's the failure rate. Ninety-five percent of AI pilot projects in game development never reach production, never generate benefits, never justify their investment. They demo well, raise funds, generate hype, then quietly disappear into the graveyard of "revolutionary" tools that revolutionized nothing.
Meanwhile, AI captured 53% of global venture funding in the first half of 2025…
Making Games in Minutes, Not Months: AI Development Tools Reach Production
"I Made 47 Games with AI in 24 Hours" screams the YouTube thumbnail. Your first instinct is to dismiss it as clickbait. Your second instinct should be to pay attention—because while the video might be performative, the capability it demonstrates is devastatingly real.
Here's the uncomfortable truth the game industry doesn't want to acknowledge: the barrier between "I have an idea" and "I have a playable game" has collapsed from months to minutes. Not for everything, not for AAA titles…
From Players to Creators: The Microcredential Movement Transforming Game-Based Learning
A quiet revolution is happening in education. Students are earning recognized qualifications not by sitting through lectures or passing standardized tests, but by building games, solving problems in virtual worlds, and collaborating on creative projects.
The credential behind this shift? Microcredentials — short-term, stackable achievements that validate specific skills and translate directly into academic credit and employment opportunities.
In its first year…
Gaming's Real AI Problem Isn't Job Losses - It's the Flood of Mediocre Content Coming
Everyone's fighting the wrong battle. While developers worry about unemployment and executives promise productivity gains, the gaming industry is sleepwalking into a discovery crisis that will make the current landscape look navigable.
The real threat from AI in gaming isn't that it will replace human developers. It's that it will make "good enough" the industry standard, flooding an already oversaturated market with technically competent but creatively hollow games. And nobody's…
