And why now is the best time to work in the industry Last month, I quit my job as a Software Engineer at Google, packed up my apartment in Canada, gave up the right to live in North America, and moved 7,500 miles across the world to India. All just so I could work in the Cryptocurrency industry. Days after returning, amidst the sweltering heat, the non-stop noise and the various forms of chaos that one finds in India, I found myself wondering if I made a crazy decision.

A new startup called Skich wants to help mobile users find games to play that better match their interests. To do so, it’s created a game recommendation app that carefully toes the line in order to not bump up against Apple’s App Store rule that prohibits other apps from acting as App Stores themselves. Instead, Skich simply lets you “match” with games you might like using a card-style interface, similar to a dating app like Tinder.

From the outside looking in, the world of startups can feel informal: You meet your co-founder at a happy hour, your lead investor over Twitter DMs, and focus more on launching a minimum viable product than buttoning up onboarding processes.
