RGG’s technical director, Yukata Ito, shared the source code for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth to inspire aspiring coders and show that game development can be accessible. The use of "ordinary" C++ in the game proves that anyone can create a game with the right knowledge and skills. RGG’s emphasis on communication and collaboration between veteran and new staff members fosters a supportive work environment for programmers. This move by RGG challenges the common secrecy in game development and encourages more transparency in the industry.
Question for discussion: How can other game development studios follow RGG’s example and promote transparency and accessibility in the industry for aspiring programmers?
