From the beginning of Peerplays, my role has been that of designer of the games and the lineup of games (includes monetization and core game/tech mechanics revolving around monetization) that we're launching and being responsible for the strategy and business development from the gaming side. What this means is, I would help with strategic decisions to grow the company, find business/gaming partners (upon the launch of the first game) and find key projects to incorporate into peerplays (such as Rawbots).
Best wishes,
Neil
I think you were rightly the first listed Peerplays team member & it was your extensive, industry relevant background, talent and experience which gave credibility to Peerplays and I doubt they would have raised very much without that.
As far as I can tell you gave valuable input & expertise during the early/formative concept stage & as expected have had a more limited role in the actual coding stage. However once there is a product, I think you will be critical to the project's success for the (obvious) reasons you've outlined. (Once developed, code can be fairly easily replicated by competitors, so the key is who can fine tune it into the most popular, playable formats and take them to market successfully.) With albeit talented coders but no/low industry relevant talent on the team, it's a very different investment proposition, so really hoping any issues will be resolved.
