Justin and Carl chat about how important your reputation is when working at a studio and the strong bond you gain with your colleagues, the shift from working at AAA game studios to co-founding his own game studio and developing his own games, how to build community while working and starting a studio remotely, and tips for navigating the challenges of starting your own studio.
