Structured Creativity Ep.3 - Creativity as a Practice - #217 - Game Dev Local Podcast
This week I am joined by my friend, Nicholas, who is a narrative designer, artist, and founder of Essay Games. His artwork and games have been featured in Kotaku, Rock Paper Shotgun, Game Developer, Critical Distance, Unwinnable, The Washington Post, and The New York Times.
His games are interesting, thoughtful, and delve deeply into human stories. While his last two games relied on his skill for research, his current undertaking, Bundle of Joy, draws on his recent experience of becoming a parent during the pandemic.
We speak at length about creativity as a practice and what his personal go-to tools are to tell stories and create games
