Hello #GameWriters and #NarrativeDesigners! What is your favorite tool to write game dialogue?
I'm thinking about using Yarn Spinner on Blood Of The Lamb, any thoughts? Is it too technical for writers?
#gamedev #indiedev
Fellow #TTRPG #gamewriters, got a question for you:
If you could offer one piece of advice for somebody who either wants to start making their own game or is actively doing so, what would it be?
I haven't read the book yet, but I know Dansky, and this'll be a read.
Pre-order this thang, fellow #GameWriters!
Sony Under Fire for Not Crediting Until Dawn Game Writers in Movie
Sony Pictures faces backlash for failing to credit the writers of the 2015 game Until Dawn in its film adaptation.
Former PlayStation director Kim MacAskill has started a petition for proper recognition, highlighting the industry's disregard for creators.
#UntilDawn #GameWriters
Also! #GameDevs (& #GameWriters especially)—this is a longer but very worthwhile interview to listen to!

#Writers and #GameDevs and especially #GameWriters: I am looking for beta readers for my visual novel! It's an adult fantasy political about magical geopolitics and bunny-eared demons. If you are interested in reading early, pls DM me anywhere DMs can be found 💜💜💜
FRIENDS! FYI:

Here's a pro-tip for #GameWriters throwing together a bunch of item descriptions (or similar.)
The word "cryptic" directly implies that there is a message there to be found, if only you could read it. It doesn't mean "Ooooh mysterious!" Or rather it could but only because the viewer can't parse it.
For the #Gamewriters. Word count in games are comparable to epic novels. Dark Souls = 130K words | Fable II = 370K worlds | Zelda Skyward Sword = 160K words. Compare to: LOTR Trilogy = 455K words | Dune 186K words. #videogames

One of my upcoming finals is an audio documentary, and my subject is the way narrative writing in #videogames has grown over the past decade or so, and what current issues in the industry should be addressed in the future.
Any veteran #gamewriters out there that would be available for an interview?
