I heard many stories of failures in LINE game development. [13th Beyond Study Session held]

This is Kai Fujisawa from public relations.

The 13th Beyond study session was held on Friday, July 13, 2018!

Title: “ Failure Teacher: The Men Who Made LINE Games ”

The theme is a story about something that went wrong at the game development site.

The speakers were Mr. Kamata (formerly of LINE) and Mr. Otsuka (King Japan), who were the founding members of LINE Games.

Both of them have spoken at the Beyond study session held in Tokyo So I had a recital lecture.

The venue is GMO Internet, Inc.'s Osaka office.

It's on the 23rd floor of the Grand Front, so it has a great view.

Preparing the venue...

Study session starts! It starts out lukewarm with me as host.

First, we will start with an explanation of the venue by Mr. Nakata from GMO.

There are expensive paintings on the walls, and if you touch them, a macho security guard will come running.

I'd like to take a look. And the main story starts.

The top batter is a story by Mr. Kamata, formerly of LINE Corporation, "To think you're okay and not fail."

After all, stories of failure are interesting and instructive.

He also carefully answered questions from the participants.

Next was PR time by Nakauchi from our technical sales department.

I would like to introduce you to server support.

I am happy to see the number of hands raised when I hear "people who know about Beyond" increase.

And then there's the talk by Mr. Otsuka of King Japan Co., Ltd., ``When things are about to go bad, that's the most important thing.''

We hurriedly handed out alcoholic beverages to the participants, thinking that it would be better if they listened while drinking.

As expected of a rapper, he is a master of storytelling. I was listening so deeply that I lost track of time.

A social gathering will be held after the study session.

Many people participated and we couldn't stop handing out pizzas.

At the end, our representative, Haraoka, gave a greeting and the social gathering ended.

The date for the next study session has not yet been decided, but we are currently planning whether the theme will be this or that, so please look forward to it.

Of course, participation is free, so whether you've never been before or if you're a regular, please join us!
