Game Dev 3.0 and AI impact
Game Dev 3.0 isn’t about replacing creativity; it’s about lowering the cost of curiosity. Across Europe, from Helsinki to Montpellier, AI is reshaping production economics—text-to-texture pipelines, procedural worldbuilding and animation clean‑up mean smaller teams can push the boundaries of scope without pushing budgets beyond sanity.
