given that there's a contact sensor in the ball, i think the world cup broadcasts are missing an opportunity to implement screen shake
just to add to this - i do think indies who make significant money should be reinvesting more back into the gamedev scene. there are some notable examples of this, and i hope we see more of them. but it's not an overall solution to the problems these digital platform ecosystems have created
