In comparison, for the film industry worldwide box office revenue was $42 billion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The game industry consists of massive corporations with their AAA game studios as well as small, independent game developers. Indeed, these independent game developers are becoming a new creator class: solo, or a few people, small businesses offering a sustainable and enjoyable lifestyle alternative to working for someone else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Game engines are not just about games. The same software used to create games is now being used to create VR experiences in manufacturing and elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Game engines provide our creativity with the possibilities to create experiences, digital and in-person, that cannot be done through any other means. The creativity made possible by game engines will be the core of entertainment and learning over the next decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Endless possibilities will emerge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Industries will evolve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New forms of storytelling will engage our daily lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve been thinking about these topics for the last 20 years. Now, it&#8217;s time to share my insights and take a deeper step into the business and creativity of game engines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every few years I adjust the focus on this blog based on my evolving interests.
