Hello and welcome back to Indieventure Extra, our bonus series where we interview key members of the games industry.

Liam recently sat down with Davey Wreden (The Stanley Parable, The Beginner's Guide) and Karla Zimonja (Gone Home) to chat about Wanderstop, their recently released game about a burned-out warrior attempting to find solace by running a tea shop in the woods.

If you've yet to play Wanderstop, there are no spoilers to be found here, so don't worry. Davey and Karla mainly chatted about how the game came to be, what it's like to make a game about burnout that is actively burning you out as you're making it, as well as the challenges - and the benefits - of making a narrative-led game within the cosy genre framework.

We also spoke about Boro. Best Boy Boro.

Here is the TTRPG about parrying that Karla mentioned in the Hyperfixations section.

Enjoy!
