Tenth level cow



    Work 12 hours a day, drag millions on yourself, be the idol of a thousand hamsters, get drunk every release to madness, experiment and fanatically scribble the featurecat until 3 in the morning.
    Forget.

    You're in the mainstream bro.



    Fountain of ideas.



    Every morning the door opened, and with a cry of “ We'll fly! ” I began to shovel violently the configs.
    First adrenaline, then serotonin.
    Any successful mechanics simply must light up in our project.
    Creative crisis. Serotonin is running out.
    A week before the release. Tutorial is difficult even for developers.
    Panic attack.

    Release . We open champagne, half-naked girls on the tables, fireworks and sweets.

    After all, releases are also celebrated, right?
    Forget. There will be no holiday.
    Low retention.
    Low gain.
    There will be no prize either.
    And we’ll extend your test for 2 months.
    Work better, we need money, not art.

    But I will celebrate the release, at home, in the company of a bottle of whiskey.

    About the beautiful.

    Highload is always beautiful. You look at the graphs and feel the heartbeat of the system - you learned every part of it, you know in advance how it will behave. As a primitive astronomer, by the movement of the moon and stars, you can tell with accuracy up to a minute when the garbage collector turns on. You enjoy it in the form in which it is now, and you will protect it from any change that could disturb harmony.

    You are ashamed to admit your techno-fetishism, and the fear of being revealed only exacerbates your illness. Yes, brother, you are sick, sleepless nights do not pass unnoticed. Go to the meeting of anonymous game developers, chtoli.

    Great idea! I’ll go to KRI, take a break from the slush and servers. Where else can you see so many people confident in their delirium. Everyone considers it their duty to measure the DAU, and the smaller the unit, the more it sticks out, trying to attract attention.

    Well, Allods, of course. Without them, CWI is like a computer without a cactus - everything seems to be fine, but something is missing, because it is used to it. And where else can you stick a wand into the rotting corpse of one of the whales of the Russian game dev.

    Perhaps enough of the beautiful. Bile will soon pour over the edge.

    Acid factory




    My favorite part. I especially love it when it explodes, pouring acid over the entire district. I mixed up the bases, on the machine clicked “yes” in the phpmayadmin. You understand that you are to blame, and such an epic oversight will forever be imprinted in the memory of your colleagues.
    You will always remember when you did this for the first time, and some part of you will insist on repeating the incident.

    When the psychiatric hospital is in the hands of patients, no one knows how the conflict with doctors might end.

    Career.

    He is not there. Whoever promises you something, it will not happen to you. And where do you grow if your team leader is the CEO. So be prepared that they will squeeze you out every day and hour, and finally they will teach you to work not 2 hours a day with a coffee break, but at least 8 hours a day. And you will like it, you yourself will work on the weekend and stay on unpaid overtime. For developers, games are even more addictive than for users.

    So don’t moo, cow, to the tenth level is still far away.
