How old does a game have to be before it becomes "retro"? To answer that, of course, we need a working definition of the term "retro." For the sake of argument, I'd suggest that it implies a game which, while quite possibly fondly remembered and even beloved, has now fallen outside the window of what might be considered a contemporary game, thus becoming a historical curiosity rather than an entertainment product competing for attention with this month's new releases.

An IGN report today cites more than a dozen current and former employees of the studio – two of them under their own names – with a variety of stories about the studio, accusing it of relying on crunch conditions, low pay, and treating its women

Sometimes you just need that one moment of inspiration, that final push that propels you to do something you both love and dread. For American solo developer Jon Nielsen , that moment came back in 2020 while playing ‘ A Short Hike ‘ by Adam Robinson-Yu. “It made me think, ‘I can do that’ So I did!” he says. Nielsen is a self-taught game developer, with many of the necessary skills ‘accidentally’ acquired over the years. “It was inevitable,

A good rule of thumb when answering questions like "Why don't companies do X anymore?" is to think about what X will cost them and what X will get them in return. The purpose of doing things is ostensibly to generate value - no one does X without a reason. There needs to be a method to determine whether the returns of a choice are worth the costs of that choice in order to make a decision.

Thanks for your willingness @chandanKrishnani , unfortunately, I did not figured out what happen and finally reverted to CC3.6 - which is running perfectly. The scene is not corrupted by any mean (I checked for missing script & referencens but no problem has been found). I also tried to load an empty scene, same result, same error. I firstly suspected that there is a problem with the script loading order (the previous bundle some how refer to the scripts in later- yet-to-loaded bundles) but

I tried everything I can to load the scene in the bundle (web-mobile) and it never works in a Release build. Still working correctly in debug builds though. Sometimes, the scene is missing from build build (I tried to load all the scenes in bundle and it returns an empty array). Tried to delete everything (library, settings, temp …) and report seems to make it some what better (the scenes are now appear from the array).

Try to test a simple, empty build, but failed when XCode builds (or using Cocos Creator ‘make’ button). All failed on compiling AudioPlayer.mm, about std::function.
