I saw this on a few Best of 2022 lists so I figured I would give it a shot when it was available through the library.
This is a decades-spanning interpersonal drama that is centered around characters that make video games for a living. It was always teetering on the edge of being a bit cringey, as classic games are used as metaphors for different stages of life and relationships, but game development as a conduit for both forging bonds and creating tension works as well as any other creative field.
I enjoyed reading this, but I'm not sure that it will stick in my mind.
