The game development focus is interesting:
> For game development, we partnered with professional developers at Tencent Interactive Entertainment Group (IEG) to curate high-quality training data and build evaluations. We focused on feature implementation, gameplay logic, state tracking, and asset pipelines. We also extensively adapted Hy4 for major engines such as Unreal Engine, Unity, and Godot, and expanded its capabilities to multiplayer game development. Compared with Hy4 preview, Hy4 improves by 19.1% on GameDev and 9.8% on GameLogic.
Here's more about that game development studio - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tencent_Games - they've been around since 2004.

They are the Berkshire Hathaway of everything, to be honest. They invest in and acquire minority stakes in hundreds of companies.

I wonder if that has anything to do with the latest vibecoded slop releases and shilling from Tim Sweeney.
