It’s incredible how deeply connected I felt to Aava. My breathing synchronized with hers, my stress rose with hers, and my fingers clenched the gamepad like hers clung to the mountain. The deeper I went into the effort, the stronger the connection to her emotions and mindset became.

Just completed the ascent of Mount Kami with Aava: what an incredible journey! Huge thanks to everyone at @thegamebakers.com for creating such a wonderful game. #Cairn

The Ubisoft Montpellier studio is a thing of legend, with a history spanning over 30 years and the talent force behind some of my all time favourite Ubisoft games such as the first Beyond good & Evil, Rayman Legends, Valiant Hearts and Prince of Persia the lost crown.

Audio (sound effects, music, and dialogue) has a weird relationship with temp assets, mostly because of issues revolving around human psychology. Problem #1: How do you communicate that something you're hearing is temp?

Let's talk video game writing. Been a while since I've done one of these so we'll tackle a light and fluffy subject today: Pen-and-paper RPGs, and what lessons DMing and adventure design have to teach about branching narrative writing in the BioWare, CD Projekt, etc. style.

It delivers an awesome, playable cinematic experience with a great rollercoaster rhythm, despite its open-world nature (thanks to the well-paced unlocking of missions and activities). The evolution of the characters throughout the story also stands out in my mind—no spoilers, though! #gamedev

Speaking of Spider-Man and Insomniac Games, I really enjoy these games. In my opinion, Spider-Man 2 is close to perfection in the genre of ´summer’ blockbuster, story-driven open-world games. #gamedev
