It's been a month since LinkedIn launched 3 new puzzle games on its platform. Have you tried them yet? 1. Pinpoint, by LinkedIn 2. Queens, by LinkedIn 3. Crossclimb, by LinkedIn 🕑 Each game takes about 3-5 minutes to play and can only be played once a day. You can see who from your connections are also participating and check the daily leaderboard. 💡 The idea is to engage professionals in a friendly competition, encouraging them to connect and share their gaming achievements. As a gamedev specialist myself, I love the idea and started playing! 🤔 However, even if players enjoy the core gameplay, there might be a lack of features like LiveOps events, diverse leaderboards, challenges, and rewards. I'm curious to see if LinkedIn has plans to keep players engaged in the long run.  We'll see! 🕑 In the meantime, why not take a 5-minute break and give them a try?

No matter the odds, no matter your energy levels, no matter your vision for the future, never give up, never surrender. ✨ A few months ago Keisha Howard asked me how I keep going in the difficult times. And my answer was the power of story, narrative, and adventure. That reading a good book gives me new hope. That playing a solid video game gives me fresh energy. That watching an incredible movie stirs something inside of me. And just today I got the chance to talk Games Jobs Dreams with Amir Satvat, and received a surprisingly pragmatic, but rigidly optimistic view of soldiering on. (P.S. The episode will go live next week!) In the immortal words of Dalinar Kholin: the most important step a person can take, is always the next one. You've got this. I believe in you. Approach with calm. Approach with confidence. Approach with flexibility. You've got this. 🔥 It is often the person who earnestly believes they can that does. What's your favorite fictional motivational quote? Lookin for my next book 😉 #gamedev #gamedevelopment #gamedeveloper #indiegames #indiegamedev #indiegaming #videogames #gameindustry #motivation #inspiration #gamesjobs #juniordeveloper
