@Skillevel7, the CEO of Mighty Bear Games and the pioneer behind Might Action Heroes, took to X to voice his thoughts and give average gamers a peek behind the video game studio curtain.

Simon voices poignant and wise points of view and tries to get readers to understand the inherent difficulty of making video games. He finishes by saying blockchain technology has a chance to benefit and help evolve the stagnant and at times broken industry, and that’s why he’s excited and not leaving the space.
