  • Ep 1: What is video game writing? (and why its not only cinematics)

    Nothing like a solid foundation question to start our adventure! Video game writing comes in all shapes and sizes, therefore, there is no set of structures on how to proceed. In this episode we'll go through some examples that showcase a video game's potential to display their narrative without a single spoken word.
