No Man's Sky

🚀 No Man's Sky is approaching its tenth anniversary, but porting updates to handhelds is far harder than it looks: as Martin Griffiths, a programmer at Hello Games, explains, adapting builds for Nintendo Switch, its successor and Steam Deck takes 2-3× the engineering effort compared to PC and consoles.
Still, the studio keeps pushing, the game has received over 40 major updates (including 14 in the last two years), from Worlds Part 1 and Worlds Part 2 to Voyagers and Xeno Arena. The team ships content for all platforms simultaneously, and honestly, the devs are MIND-BLOWN by the workload.
