The Heritage Foundation’s manifesto for the potential next administration has raised alarms within the game development community. According to the manifesto, significant changes could adversely affect many sectors, including game development. The document suggests policies that might lead to layoffs and other detrimental impacts on the industry. Notably, Reflector, a company in the gaming sector, has already confirmed additional layoffs following the underperformance of their game “Unknown 9.” This situation underscores the potential real-world implications of the proposed policies, with up to 90% of game developers potentially facing job insecurity or worse.
