    This is the story of a man named Stanley, as told by two other men, when it's really about two other men and one other voice. Confused? Well you should be! Hope you all enjoy this episode on the development of The Stanley Parable. It was really interesting to dive into the minds of the creators of this game, and we hope listeners can take something away about considering what happens to people when games come out.Twitters @retroreleasepod @WillNelson1998 @MichaelT1102Send us an email at retroreleasepod@gmail.com You can find the script and sources at Will's Wordpress hereIf you liked the episode, tell your mates or leave us a review, we'd appreciate it!
