June 09, 2015 TGC: 040 David Sanheuza- Breaking Apart the Vision
How often do we as tacklers of giant creative projects often
dream of the grand vision as a whole, of entire gaming universes
and back stories, of our polished and intricate end products, with
all of our hearts and brains, and then become overwhelmed at how
much work these vast projects will take? David Sanheuza of
Game-o-gami (returning guest from episode 15), is here to tell us
how to break out those visions into smaller projects that can be
more realistically completed over time, and on budget.
