Glass Bead Games is an early stage game studio working on the emergent field of GenAI x Games, with a potential massive market. The studio is founded by Kuangye Guo, a veteran in gaming tech with products like Google Stadia and Alibaba YuanJing. After years of working on cutting edge gaming tech in global markets, we’ve decided to start our dream studio where we’d love to spend our rest of our careers.

GenAI has already revolutionized many domains, but it hasn’t made meaningful penetration on core gameplay yet. Part of the reason is creating lasting fun gameplay design on new technology has always been a hard problem. LLM has remarkable new found intelligence in planning, reasoning with vast amounts of knowledge. Yet it also has many issues like lack of world state understanding, long horizon planning that hinders its application on games.

We think we have a good shot at this problem.

We founded Glass Bead Games to tackle these hard and exciting opportunities. We are blending the good old fashion AI with the shiny GenAI tech, innovating in key areas whilst respecting proven industry best practices. We intend to keep the team small, tightly-knit and ambitious.
