Freya took us from the first levels she designed in Trackmania, all the way to her live coding Flowstorm on Twitch. She explained how her view on GameDev expanded over time. She told us the birth story of Shader Forge and the VR-Game Budget Cuts. She spoke of her burnout and how she finally felt back on her feet, streaming and freelancing in the gaming industry.
