Respawn - Gathering of Game Developers 2016

At the beginning of a game project things are “easy”. Small core team, everyone involved has a voice and each member of the team usually has a strong sense of ownership on the game. As production goes, as teams grow, as pressure gets stronger, as quick decisions need to be made, it is very easy to have a team where people don’t feel like they own the game they are making anymore.How do we preserve that sense of ownership in the long run? How do we integrate new members to the team and give them a sense of involvement as high as if they were part of the original core team? What happens when we reach that moment in production when there is simply no more time for new contributions without giving the feeling to the team that they are mindless executants? 

These are just some of many topics addressed which our seasoned panel of protagonists like Fleur Marty from Eidos Montreal, Hannes Seifert from IO Interactive, Klaas Kersting from Flaregames and Moderator Jason della Rocca from Executions Labs will discuss.
