I want to get involved in the design/prototyping. My skills are Deep Learning, a bit of statistics, finance and frontend dev, and I played a lot of games. I'd say if I spent a few …

Yea one plan would be to start with some kind of prototype, which should be possible in the 5-50k range I expect (could be a very small minimalist prototype by a single dev). Then …

I like the idea of finding experienced people. Do you have any pointers to find Discord channels with such people and/or having similar ideas? One thing is that i'm willing to disc…

I have this idea for a videogame concept, which is basically TABS (totally accurate battle simulator) but for spellcasting. You effectively need to create a "physics" engine for sp…

Thanks for the additional suggestions. If you want to take this offline and setup a private call email me at not_a_cat at fastmail

Staying remote was a consideration indeed. We generally have a better time when the team is together. My vision for the long-term research is "a bunch of phds in a room". According…
