AI Summary

Dean Hall, the creator of DayZ, Icarus and Kitten Space Agency, posted a lengthy critique on Reddit accusing the games industry of being “rotting from its core” due to greed and a price‑driven race to the bottom. He singled out major engine makers Epic (Unreal) and Unity as emblematic of the problem. To back his argument, Hall announced the release of Brutal, a free, open‑source game‑making framework he developed himself. The post frames the new framework as an alternative to the proprietary engines he condemns.
