At Supercell, when I was there, we killed one of the games we had been working on. It was a small team, I think it was five or six people, that had been working on this beautiful game for, you know, four or five months. And we decided it was not the right game for us anymore. It didn't work out. The data didn't show that, okay, this is going to be something that customers really love, gamers really love. And I remember when the game was killed in an all-hands call, there was this presentation about everything we learned making this game. And the team was making it. And, you know, some of them were crying, explaining the design and the philosophies and the learnings. And at the end of it, like, Ilkka gave everyone a bottle of champagne and they got a week off. And then when they came back from the week off, they would move to new teams and, you know, continue building new games. And that was celebrating failure, celebrating the fact that we as a team and as a company became better because of the work these people put on the table for the company. And they worked hard for it and we should celebrate it.
