Sometimes narrowing the focus and just getting your first game out there is the breakthrough you need. Somara Atkinson is an indie game developer just about to ship his first game. He talks with us about what that took, how an earlier project didn’t work out as well, and what his advice is. Great talk with Somara and we hope to play Parkour Posse soon… thanks, Somara!

Bioware and Star Wars the Old Republic is well known for the strength of its narrative. Cinematic, fully voiced cut-scenes that put the player in the story with a feeling of agency is difficult to achieve without clear narrative direction and vision. Ashley Ruhl has been involved with narrative direction from the start for SWTOR and has recently taken on full responsibility as Narrative Director. She talks with us about what that means, how a narrative director puts the player in the story, and how moments that matter are created. Excellent and insightful conversation… thanks, Ashley!
