Game Job Readiness & Portfolio Scorer
Build a SaaS tool that evaluates a candidate's portfolio, resume, and target role against game-industry hiring expectations. It would convert vague advice into a concrete gap report, improving candidate positioning before they apply.
これが重要な理由
You have years of self-taught work, maybe even shipped side projects or a promising indie title, but every application feels like guessing. One studio seems to care about polished portfolio pieces, another wants collaborative design proof, and another quietly filters for specialization you did not realize was mandatory. Generic portfolio sites show your work, but they do not tell you whether a hiring manager would see role fit, seniority fit, or obvious gaps. You keep revising materials based on contradictory advice and still cannot tell whether the problem is your resume, your portfolio structure, your project selection, or your positioning for a specific discipline.

エビデンスの概要
AIがこのインサイトをどのように統合したか — 逐語的な引用はありません
The strongest theme was not lack of motivation but lack of clarity. Around ten commenters described highly selective hiring, specialization pressure, and unclear portfolio expectations. Several also emphasized that personal projects matter, but applicants still do not know what 'good enough' looks like for a given role. That creates a clear opening for a software product that diagnoses readiness and translates vague industry norms into concrete fixes.
