Avin Sharma liked thisAvin Sharma liked this🎮 Crafting a Game: A Tale of Perseverance and Lessons Learned 🚀 Reflecting on the incredible journey of building a game from scratch, I can't help but draw parallels between our team's experience and that of the game that soared to become one of the highest retained games ever. Both tales share a common thread of dedication, adaptability, and the courage to make substantial core changes when needed. In our pursuit of excellence, we embarked on a methodical and thorough approach, just like our successful counterparts. We meticulously crafted every aspect, pouring countless hours into development, design, and testing. Our team was driven by a passion to create an unforgettable gaming experience. Yet, as the journey unfolded, we encountered hurdles and obstacles that challenged us deeply. We realized that certain aspects of our game's core were not resonating with players as we had hoped. With humility, we acknowledged the need for change, recognizing that even the most carefully crafted plans can require adjustment. We rallied our creativity and pivoted, breathing new life into our project by substantially altering its core game. This bold move showcased our team's adaptability and commitment to delivering a game that would captivate audiences. However, despite our best efforts, we ultimately fell short of achieving the same level of success as our inspiring counterpart. While it may be disheartening to accept that our project didn't reach the pinnacle we aspired to, we must remember that success isn't solely measured by the final outcome. The invaluable lessons we learned, the skills we honed, and the bonds we forged within our team are immeasurable achievements in their own right. As we bid farewell to this particular endeavor, let us carry forward the invaluable knowledge gained from our shared journey. Our experience serves as a testament to the trials and tribulations faced by those in the gaming industry. It highlights the resilience required to navigate a landscape where success and challenges walk hand in hand. Now, as we set our sights on new horizons, let us not be deterred by setbacks, but rather fueled by the determination to push boundaries and redefine what is possible. Our journey may have ended, but our passion for crafting exceptional gaming experiences remains unwavering. Remembering some of the people that were a part of that journey: Krishnendu De Archana Ashwath Shiva Chaitanya Bodapati Joel James Richard (Rik) Lagarto Mousumee Nath Tarana Reddy Aditya Sakhare Anurag Singh Ashutosh Kumar Jha Nishant Khandelwal Sandeep Boda AMRUTHA NG Amith Ashokan Avin Sharma Aniruddh Kumthekar Chitrak Srivastava Ashokkumar Manivannan Aditi Ghag Akshatha Ganesh Ramprakash R Anand Mohan Debasish Sinha Abhilash Menon Devaraj Ts and a lot more. Tagging everyone was making the list longer than the actual post. #GameDevelopment #LessonsLearned #PerseveranceHow Trailmix took Love & Pies from perpetual pivots to record retentionHow Trailmix took Love & Pies from perpetual pivots to record retention

India’s gaming market is on a steep growth curve. It is expected to grow from $5.02 Bn in 2026 to $9.9 Bn by 2031, powered by an estimated base of 591 Mn active gamers and counting. Mobile already accounts for more than 55% of the country’s total gaming market size in 2025. But when it first took off in 2018, driven by high-intensity multiplayer titles like PUBG Mobile, finding reliable mobile gaming gear was not easy. While players spent hours competing on their phones, the accessories market lagged. Indian gamers were largely left with two options: expensive global brands or low-quality local products that failed to withstand long, intensive sessions. This prompted Aamir Malik , an electronics and communications engineer and an MBA with a deep interest in gaming, to start SpinBot in 2019. Instead of chasing the crowded PC peripherals space, he wanted to equip mobile-first Indian gamers and set out to develop products like gaming triggers, mobile cooling systems and finger sleeves. It was built ‘by gamers, for gamers’, offering durable, responsive gear that improved in-game performance without pricing out a mass gaming audience.

If your team can list ten priorities, you don't have priorities. The best product leader I've worked with says no more than anyone else on the team. Most leadership advice is about addition — more vision, more frameworks, more ideas. But on a product team, ideas are never the scarce resource. Attention is. Every roadmap review I've sat through has more good ideas than the team can execute well in a quarter. A while back, I killed a feature few weeks before launch. Not because it was bad — because shipping it would've split the team's focus exactly when we needed everyone solving one problem. It felt like losing ground. It was probably the highest-leverage call I made that quarter. What's the last thing you killed to protect focus? 💡

Bengaluru-based real-money gaming company Gameskraft has terminated more than 400 employees—reducing its workforce from around 600 to under 100—in a sweeping restructuring. The move follows the enactment of the Promotion and Regulation of Online Gaming Act, 2025 (PROGA), which bans online games involving user deposits and winnings, and a fraud investigation into its former CFO, alleged to have misappropriated ₹270 crore. Gameskraft said the layoffs were driven by “business continuity” needs. The company has offered severance, extended insurance coverage, leave encashment and job-placement assistance to affected staff. #gaming #layoffs #Gameskraft #onlinegaming #regulation #IndiaStartups #entrepreneur #entrepreneurs #entrepreneurlife #entrepreneurship #entrepreneurlifestyles

I wrote about this some time ago, and the post blew up 😁 It led to a lot of DMs, questions and conversations with people trying to understand the nuances of the issue. What stayed with me was how many people were looking for a space to ask questions, share perspectives and make sense of something that isn't always easy to navigate. It made me think about how often workplace conversations get reduced to policies and rules, when what people really need is clarity, context and the space to talk about difficult things.

Two of our co-founders Rahul Nagpal (COO) and Soumil Rao (Head of Product), spent an evening at Sensor Tower's Pulse networking event in Bengaluru, connecting with product, growth and marketing leaders from some of India’s fastest-growing consumer platforms. A session on app download trends across gaming vs non-gaming categories offered a useful lens on where user attention is shifting, and the conversations on how growth and marketing is structured across companies were just as valuable as the data. Always energising to compare notes with peers building at scale #SensorTowerPulse #WorkIndia #GrowthMarketing #MobileGrowth #AppEconomy #TechNetworking #Bengaluru #BuildingInIndia

Quick hiring Observation in AI world Most of the hiring rejects in the last few months for me have come because of AI. They offer high standard assignments using possibly all AI tools under the sun, but when just probed a little more it surfaces with a complete lack of creativity, originality and all task's AI delegation. AI should make oneself faster and that I value as interviewer but reckless delegation to AI will make AI replace your candidature quicker than what you think. #AI #AIproductmanagement
