Glen Schofield created the Dead Space franchise and spent decades developing AAA video games. The horror game veteran worked on Call of Duty titles during the 2010s before returning to his preferred genre with The Callisto Protocol in 2022. Schofield recently shared concerns about his future in game development through a LinkedIn post. He described an eight-month collaboration with his daughter Nicole on a horror project concept that failed to secure adequate funding.

The father-daughter team initially sought seventeen million dollars for their innovative horror subgenre concept. Publishers demanded budget reductions to ten million dollars and later requested cuts to between two and five million dollars. Schofield abandoned the project rather than compromise his creative vision with insufficient resources. The veteran developer returned to creating art while his collaborators search for employment opportunities.

The video game industry faces significant financial challenges that have forced many experienced developers to reconsider their careers.
