Dino Patti on making multiplayer easy, Stop Killing Games, and ongoing legal wrangles with Playdead

Briefing

Dino Patti, known for his work on indie hits like Limbo and Inside, is now championing Coherence, a tool aimed at easing the multiplayer development process for smaller studios. By allowing developers to flexibly scale their back-end server architecture, Coherence addresses a critical pain point in multiplayer game development.

This shift not only broadens the scope for indie developers but also enhances the overall gaming landscape.
