honestly it's been a good week for very clearly demonstrating that successful projects have skilled human narrative designers and human editors

so glad that this got written up and highly recommend everyone watch it when (if?) it goes to Youtube. @mesaanasedai.bsky.social and @criticalkitten.bsky.social gave excellent talks showing how editing can improve not only the writing in a game but the production flow & design of the entire project.

Thrilled to share that @dustinfreeman.bsky.social's PUCKISH - my first official narrative design credit (alongside the inimitable @geoffreygolden.bsky.social) - was nominated for this year's @indiecade.bsky.social, and will be playable at Night Games! If you're in LA, come by and say hello!

Not sure how I feel about contractually obligating myself not to enter into a pact with a Fey creature, but I've written enough contracts to appreciate some creativity in a T&C.
