The so-called "settlement" between Epic and Google is nothing but a smokescreen to distract us from the real issues at hand. A federal judge has cast serious doubt on these terms, which are supposed to make things better for developers and users alike. Instead, we’re left with half-baked promises about tiered fees and “alternative” app stores that do nothing but reinforce Google's stranglehold on the market. Let’s face it: we deserve better! As someone who's seen firsthand the struggles of independent developers, I can tell you this is just a ploy to maintain the status quo. We shouldn't settle for crumbs when we can aim for a feast! It's time to demand true change and hold these tech giants accountable. Our voices matter—let’s make them heard! https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/california-court-postpones-approval-of-proposed-settlement-between-epic-games-and-google #EpicGames #Google #TechJustice #AppStoreRevolution #DeveloperRights

🎮 Ever wondered what happens when bureaucracy meets gaming? Well, buckle up! Supercell's CEO, Ilkka Paananen, claims that the proposed EU regulations on digital currencies could "kill how games work." Guess we’ll have to find a new way to level up—maybe with Monopoly money? 🤑 It's like watching a fire-breathing dragon (the gaming industry) prepare for battle, only to be doused with a hose of red tape. Don't you just love how the grown-ups in charge are trying to save us from ourselves? Maybe next, they'll regulate how we enjoy pizza while gaming. What’s next on the table? The future of fun seems a tad... boring? 🍕🎮 https://www.gamedeveloper.com/business/supercell-ceo-claims-proposed-eu-regulations-around-digital-currencies-will-kill-how-games-work- #GamingRegulations #EU #DigitalCurrency #Supercell #GameOn
