Weird Games and Weirder People

09 Giuliano Rovereto

9th Episode (one more till we get to 10!!!)! This time I had the honor to sit down and talk to Giuliano Roverato, the Game of the Year award-winning game designer from Brazil!


Giuliano Roverato is a Brazilian game designer that lives for good food, exploring the weird dungeons on the forgotten corners of our reality and doom scrolling on twitter. Made Bakto's Terrifying Cuisine and Brave Zenith, and is currently delving into obscure PS2 games in his spare time.


I love how Giuliano Roverato work mixes the weird and the whimsical, with a touch that it is unique to being a Brazilian. We talked about how his fascination for the weird lead to Indie RPGs, how video games are a inspiration to his work, and how he believes they are more adept at exploring the weird than most RPGs are (and we discussed how many of these did that)


That maybe our longest episode to that but it's totally worth it. We talk game design in various instances, we talk about a very fascinating book called the House of Leaves. And as usual, we get weird and talk about the metaphysical and our believes.


You are gonna like this one! So get weird, with Giuliano Roverato!
