screenshot of Unleaving the hand painted video game. Q & A from hand eye society interview: Is there a guiding principle for your studio? Why is it important to you? Our guiding principle is to view video games as a medium for exploring and expressing the depths of human emotions and vulnerabilities. This vision is important to us because it allows for a more authentic and relatable storytelling experience, fostering connections with players on a deeper level. By prioritizing organic narrative development and leveraging diverse perspectives, we aim to create a collaborative process that encourages creativity and innovation rather than strict control, ultimately enriching the gaming experience.
Day 4 of #SuperFESTIVAL with @thehandeyesociety.bsky.social
Unleaving is part of it!
🎤 Q&A Highlight:
Q: What's your studio's guiding principle?
A: Games as a medium to explore emotions & authentic stories that connect deeply with players through art and gameplay.

screenshot of unleaving video game the hand painted game What surprised you during development? During development, I was surprised by the level of involvement from players and how clearly they could perceive aspects of the game. Their feedback often validated some of our hypotheses, revealing insights we hadn’t fully considered. This interaction not only enriched the development process but also reinforced the importance of player perspectives in shaping a more engaging experience.

Q: What surprised you during development?
