Mike & Rami Are Still Here: Live from Develop:Brighton
They're old. They're tired. They're barely hanging on. Mike Rose (No More Robots) and Rami Ismail (previously of Vlambeer) have been knocking around the video game industry for 15 years now, Mike on the publishing side, and Rami on the developer side. Now they've finally fulfilled their dreams of starting a video game industry podcast (which is an entirely unique idea and has never been done before), through which they tell terrible stories, give terrible advice, and swan around like they own the place.
In this very special live episode of Mike & Rami Are Still Here, the duo will talk memories of past Develop:Brighton visits; what is on the horizon for our industry at a time of extreme worry; And maybe even talk a question or two from the audience, if they can stomach it.
Session Takeaway
- A better understanding of publisher funding in 2026. What should you be asking for? How many units will you actually sell?
- What can we expect sales to look like going forward into 2027? Are things levelling out? Are they getting worse?
- What tips and tricks are there for surviving as a studio right now? How can you rise above?
