Crisis in Polish Game Development - Report from CD-Action

The article discusses the current state of the Polish gaming industry, focusing on the harsh realities of layoffs and their effects on employees. In recent years, numerous games and projects have been canceled, which has led to devastating consequences for those involved. Laid-off workers often find themselves cut off from essential work tools such as Slack and email, complicating their transition to new employment opportunities. This disconnection can take a toll on the mental health of employees and can lead to professional burnout within the industry. Although the gaming sector in Poland is growing robustly, such practices raise serious concerns and call for introspection from the companies involved. It would be beneficial for firms to adopt better management practices, especially in challenging times.
