Bossmob at the mothership of the rcp family - making games since ´01

Since 2005 I am an independent entrepreneur in gaming with our own company rcp, still sitting at the helm. I learned my trade playing games since I was 4 years, sold games for years (my first less official venture as a kid and later in a store), writing about them during university and nearly 5 years of Take2 Interactive where i gained a lot of exp and had quite an unplanned positive impact on their revenue. It was a great time and well suited education for what came next.

When we started rcp in a souterrain (fancy word for basement) we wanted to empower developers while making better games with a sustainable process. Now we are a management company with an a whole group of studios (>12) under the rcp family umbrella with hundreds of game makers in multiple countries and 3 continents. I also decided early on that I could only do this in my home town if we also change perception of the industry as a whole; so I am an avid lobbyist/politician for games in Bavaria (MD of "GBM") and also on an European level (president of "EGDF"), support a lot of educational initiatives (ex. currently the chair of production at S4G in Berlin), founded the biggest German speaking game culture club, own 2300 games on steam (pretty decent % of played :) ) and started pro bono mentoring startup founders from other industries >10 years ago.  Happy to connect! 

I love my job, I push myself for growth and I will never give up in general or playing games in particular.

Keep on gaming

Leading the mothership of Europe's biggest game developer family since 2005. :)

update on our game Songs of Silence (where i am proud EP:))

we started the Epic Games store free week yesterday. 
so far highest CCU ever (more than double than peak on steam) and 86% review. 
very proud of the team of the game from Chimera Entertainment and high five for all the work and passion going into this. 

we also updated the multiplayer part of the game quite a bit with crossplay, deeper features and some QoL features. 

thanks alot Walter Somol 🔜 Unite and Kyle Billings for the trust and support 😀 

and everyone who knows the story about the game, understands how good this feels after a very bumpy early start last year. so thx to all for their love and support during that time 👏

Songs of Silence | Download and Buy Today - Epic Games Store

emotions tuesday :)

i was asked yesterday about how i deal with life's challenges and the ups and downs.

one part is to try to reflect what i feel. i was familiar with the concept  for the longest time (d'oh) but only after i joined  Entrepreneurs'​ Organization it became part of the process to describe what significanty happend, why it's relevant to me and how i felt about it.
only then did i realize how often my emotional terminology was cool, fine or f up. 
not super helpful ;) 

below is a cheat sheet 🕺🏼✊

since i love cursing, i have  addtional ones i use, but that's the pg version

any specifc ones you love or dread but is part of your lingo?
even invented ones (which are often the best :))

my great colleagues and especially Chris Reiner made this  figurine for my 20th anniversary being with remote control productions.

since the last 3ish years have been extra hectic, i feel i reflected to little about that so far. 

what i can share though is, that i am damn proud of what we achieved :)

rcp is still one of its kind.
our purpose statement says we empower and emancipate game devs to create sustainable.
wtf does it mean, some of you might ponder?

it means we become partners (minority shareholding and beyond) of studios. not as an additional founder person but add. founder army. we dont give the teams money but brains, time, sweat and the feeling of belonging and not being alone.

we support them with lots of corp topics, bizdev, and production. we are not their publishers though.
we call it a production company who partners longterm and pushes a same boat experience.

last week's summit and end of the year holiday extravaganza (thats when i took the pic ;)),
proves me that a lot of it works and lives. also for me.

so thanks alot to all the studio and team heads, all the colleagues in the studios, our friends, allies and clients for helping to make this a reality for 2 decades 🖖🙏

i appreciate you (even if i am not great at showing it daily), i salute you (the crazy ups and downs we had and still going) and high five everyone for the coop adventures we have 😎👊🏼

to another 20 turns :)
and then just one more
or maybe another one.
cause the drones need us

as i speak in references a lot, plz dont be offended by any semantics here 👹 but rather comment what they are 🥸

enjoy

No alternative text description for this image

one thing we do for a long time is doing onsites for the rcp crew normally 3x a year. 

i always start by sharing how i see rcp right now and who we are (repeating officer of purpose, vision, values :)) our previous goals, how we were doing and ofc an outlook going forward. 

this is meant to underline & align on the cause and show a tomorrow

it includes mottos and 1st principles - often expressed with memes 
here is a glimpse and slide from today. enjoy

think global, act local :) 

the great advocate Paul Redetzky and colleagues organized a game jam again in franconia (northern part of bavaria). Games Bavaria Munich e.V. (our bavarian game association) was the official platform for this.

its great to think about europe and the world etc. but in the end, change and impact is often done on a local level. people are reached by initatives like this better cause it is in their well known surroundings and often with people they know. so i expect one of the kids to become a great game maker in the future :) 

so today i applaud all the volunteers and activists who spend mindshare and effort on a local level. often it seems less sexy but it has deep impact and can nudge people´s life directly and immediatly to set them on a path. 

i will forever remeber the first game event in munich. it was a kind of wild mix of selling merch, games and having outliers already (artist selling their art etc.). the main thing i took from it: i wasn´t the only super nerd who knew all the games. it gave me the feeling of belonging, ableness to "compete" in this world. 

that was 35 years ago :) 

what was your first touchpoint with gaming beyond your friends house or a shop?

Systems can tell stories, giving a choice can persuade.

Last weekend 238 #developers made 47 games in 48 hours!

07th to the 09th it was time again for our annual Franken Game Jam (the 8th edition!). And once again we had an incredible event!

48 hours of interdisciplinary creativity brought togehter coders, artists, musicians, writers, animators and game designers to create awesome #videogames!

We were present at six locations all across franconia!
In Bamberg at LAGARDE1
In Bayreuth at Game Innovation Lab
In Coburg at Zukunft.Coburg.Digital
In Hof at Einstein1 Digitales Gründerzentrum
In Nürnberg at OM7
In Würzburg at Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg

It was a privilege visiting all 6 locations in 2 days and seeing the awesome creative atmosphere everywhere!

Thanks to the great Franken Game Jam team: Simon, Tanja, Max, Sophie and Carina

Thanks to Andreas for the great #keynote!

Thanks to the awesome sponsors & partners: CipSoft GmbH, Travian Games, Games/Bavaria, BF/M-Bayreuth
