Game Developers of the future, take notes. If you want to sell a game to a big time publisher to put yourself on the map, look no further than No Man's Sky developer Hello Games for inspiration. According to Former Sony Computer Entertainment Europe Strategic Content Director, Shahid Kamal Ahmad, No Man's Sky was the best pitch he has had ever seen while on the job.
The best pitch I ever saw was for No Man’s Sky. Sean sent me just a link to the VGX video before he flew out. https://t.co/Pgh1CASTbN

Ahmad took to Twitter today to answer questions from various aspiring developers, focusing specifically on the nature of giving pitches to executives (like himself). Suffice it to say, his advice is invaluable and if you are looking at breaking into Game Development, his exchanges are worth checking out.
No Man's Sky is setting itself up to be arguably the most impactful game release of the year on June 21, 2016. With multiple alien languages, infinite worlds, and many more untapped mysteries, we can expect to see one of the most diverse games (possibly) ever.
