      What is the biggest difference between working at an indie studio versus a major one?

      The biggest thing for me was versatility.

      I really like doing different kinds of jobs, like for example the fact that I do both lighting and writing and level design, and sometimes even a little VFX, but that's really on the side.

      At a AAA studio you don't really, you specialize much more, you go deeper into one skill and that is kind of the thing you do.

      At an indie studio you get a much more chance to just do all kinds of things and I just like too many things to really want to specialize into one single thing.

      Alright, let's save again.

      So that for me is really the biggest plus of working at an indie studio.

      I also just like the fact that we're a smaller team and that means you know people better and there's just a more of a closer connection between people, which is really, really nice.

      The people here are amazing.

      It's super cool.
