In which John, Jess, and their guest, Stephen Dewey, discuss the design his game To Serve Her Wintry Hunger. Together they dive into the magic of games built around evocative questions and emotional pacing. Stephen shares how he uses rules to do the heavy lifting and reinforce the emotional weight of the story.

Nowadays in particular it's become normal for developers to make truly fantastic debut games such as Norco and The Case of the Golden Idol to mention just two. But it's hard to think of anybody who has made their mark as much as Tom Hardwidge, one half of Tall Story Games. Along with his wife Emma Hardwidge, who also voiced the main character in their debut game, they took the adventure game community by storm with their debut game Lucy Dreaming. But now they're back with their new game Heir of the Dog. With a hugely successful Kickstarter which was funded in less than 2 hours and made close to 5 times its goal it's clear their success is going to continue.Tom was kind enough to speak to Seoirse last December which is why none of this is mentioned but he does speak in more detail about what we can expect from his upcoming game Heir of the Dog including the story, gameplay, puzzles and he talks about his philosophy regarding puzzles and how much help should be given to players and he also has enough time to talk a little about his time voicing the main character in Guga's game The Will of Arthur Flabbington.

Die Wahl zwischen Open World Sandbox Spielen und Linearen Story Games ist stark von den Präferenzen und Erwartungen der Spieler abhängig. Manche bevorzugen die Freiheit und Vielfalt einer offenen Welt, während andere die Struktur und Intensität einer fesselnden Story bevorzugen. Beide Ansätze haben ihre einzigartigen Vorzüge und Herausforderungen, aber Nachteile und Gameplay-Stopper. Eine Analyse der Vor- und Nachteile findet in diesem Video statt.   Themen:   Wie groß darf eine Open World sein?   Wie verhindert man, dass ein Open World Spiel langweilig wird?   Wie führt man Spieler in einer Sandbox-Welt?   Wie frei darf ein Spieler in einer linearen Welt sein?   Warum klare Ziele und keine Freiheit ein Spiel besser machen können.   Wieviel Vielfalt braucht ein Spiel und wieviel ist zu viel?   Welches Gameplay ist für Multiplayer am besten geeignet?   Warum ein Open World Spiel unbedingt ein gutes Balancing benötigt.   Und:   Wie mehrstufige Bossgegner die Entwickler von Piranha Bytes zur Verzweiflung gebracht haben.     Darüber diskutieren in dieser Folge:   Antony Christoulakis (Keen Games)   Björn Pankratz (Piranha Bytes)   Jan Wagner (Owned by Gravity)   Bewerbt euch bei uns!   Black Forest Games: https://black-forest-games.com/career/open-positions/ Deck13 Interactive: https://www.deck13.com/jobs/ Keen Games: https://www.keengames.com/jobs King Art: https://king-art-gmbh.factorialhr.de/#jobs Owned by Gravity: https://www.ownedbygravity.com/jobs Piranha Bytes: https://www.piranha-bytes.com/index.php?navtarget=5&lang=de     Folgt uns auf Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/DevPlayDE/ DevPlay auf Youtube: https://youtu.be/1XDzDa9LYkY   In Kooperation mit GameStar Plus!   Diese Folge wurde am 28.09.2023 aufgezeichnet

We are joined today by Ole from Immortal Games to talk about Story Games History.Story Games History is a ground-breaking concept for making history more accessible, both to casual fans, and for learning purposes. Ole talks about his plan for approaching schools and colleges, adding more academic clout to this exciting project. Perhaps most interestingly, Ole explains how Story Games History will bring 16 key historical world events and persons to life through this innovative new educational medium, where players will be  in the centre of dramatic events. The game kicks off with a scenario now frightfully familiar to us - the world poised on the edge of war, nuclear war. The date is 1962, and the Cuban Missile Crisis is underway. As Ole explains, the plan is to put you, the player, into the shoes of JFK, and see if your choices make or break the world. In terms of gameplay, Ole plans to use a 'choose your own adventure' style, with a story and dialogue written by dedicated researcher. He'll also draw on tools such as quizzes and puzzle games with visual connection to the event, and each of the planned 16 scenarios will follow this formula. We talk together about how we intend to collaborate, and how Matchlock could even get its own mobile game, with an exclusive story written by me!Above all, Ole shares a clear vision for how to bring Story Games History from concept to life. If anyone can do it, it's him! Ole is armed with experience in projects like these - including iDance, which brought him to the European Parliament, where he shared his vision for technology and learning can be blended together, to create something incredible. We hope you enjoy this fun conversation, and if you want to offer your expertise or advice, email me at wdfpodcast AT hotmail DOT com, with the subject Story Games History, and I'll be sure to pass it on!

Es hat 97% positive Kritiken auf Steam, dass das Rating auf "overwhelmingly positive" stuft. Indie-Dev-Kollegen wie Rami Ismail zeigen sich auf Social Media begeistert (https://twitter.com/tha_rami/status/1428097747354275840) und die asiatische Spielepresse überschlägt sich vor positiven Artikeln. Trotz dieser sehr guten Resonanz habt ihr vermutlich noch nie von Opus: Echo of Starsong gehört. Und das ist ein Umstand, der unbedingt geändert werden muss! Der taiwanesische Entwickler Sigono hat mittlerweile drei Opus-Spiele veröffentlicht, die vor allem ein Ziel haben: Berührende Geschichten erzählen, die nebenher Werte über Menschlichkeit und Mitgefühl vermitteln. Wo die beiden Vorgänger Opus: Rocket of Whispers und Opus: The Day We Found Earth eher klein, aber fein waren, haut Sigono mit Echo of Starsong ein Werk raus, wogegen die Vorgänger wie kleine Fingerübungen wirken: Das Art Design, das Writing, die Spielkomponenten, die Musik, die Stimmung ... alles ist auf den Punkt genau orchestriert. Die Science-Fiction-Geschichte rührt zu Tränen ... und das nicht nur, weil es gut geschrieben ist, sondern auch, weil die Serie im Westen ein Schattendasein fristet. Wie Rami Ismail anmerkt, scheint die westliche Presse das Spiel zu ignorieren. Micha möchte etwas daran ändern und hat die Entwickler von Sigono zu einem Interview eingeladen. Im Gespräch geht es u.a. um die Schwierigkeiten für einen asiatischen Entwickler auf dem westlichem Markt wahrgenommen zu werden und über kulturelle Einflüsse in der Story. Opus: Echo of Starsong findet ihr hier auf Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1504500/OPUS_Echo_of_Starsong/

Große Welten, zahlreiche Nebenaufgaben und ein mannigfaltiges Angebot an Freizeitaktivitäten – damit allein gewinnt heute kein Entwicklerstudio mehr einen Preis. Was vor 20 Jahren noch eine Seltenheit in einer Masse an geradlinig inszenierten Story-Games war, ist mittlerweile zu einem Standard-Produkt mit abgeschmackter Formel geworden. In den letzten Jahren wurden wir mit Open-World-Games quasi überrollt: Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, Red Dead Redemption 2, Horizon Zero Dawn, Fallout 76, Death Stranding, Marvel’s Spider Man, Far Cry 5, Metal Gear Survive, Destiny 2, The Division 2, Final Fantasy XV, Yakuza 0, Ghost of Tsushima, Days Gone & in diesem Jahr sollen noch Watch Dogs Legion und Cyberpunk 2077 erscheinen. Auch mit Blick auf die Zukunft scheint die Menge an Open-World-Games nicht abzuebben. Grund genug für uns, um uns diesem Thema mal ausführlich zu widmen. Wie stehen wir zu Open-World-Spielen? In welche Welt haben wir uns verloren und Unmengen an Lebenszeit hineingesteckt? Und welche Arten von Open-Worlds sind es, die uns so sehr Spaß bereiten und was wiederum kritisieren wir? Natürlich können wir nicht jedes Open-World-Spiel in aller Ausführlichkeit behandeln und haben viele auch gar nicht gespielt, sodass wir hier nur einen groben Querschnitt abdecken können. Aber lasst uns doch eure Lieblings-Open-World-Games hören und welches Open-World-Gamedesign ihr bevorzugt und am liebsten spielt. Kritik, Anregungen und eure Meinungen sind natürlich immer gerne gesehen und werden im Podcast vorgelesen. Schreibt uns und folgt uns auf Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, iTunes oder Spotify. Viel Spaß!

Der Tod ist ein schwieriges Thema. Von Abschied, Verlust und Trauer. Der Tod konfrontiert uns als immerwährendes Schicksal, das über unser aller Leben thront. Irgendwann trifft es uns alle. Wie ist dieses gesellschaftlich, kulturell und philosophisch bedeutsame Thema in Videospielen umgesetzt? Was bedeutet es in Games zu sterben? Wie gehen Spiele damit unterschiedlich um? Diese und viele weitere Fragen zum Thema Tod in Videospielen behandeln Mollin, Rico & Andi in dieser Waterfall-Rising-Folge. Die Unterschiede reichen von einfachen Level-Neustarts in Jump ’n’ Runs, über den elementaren Bestandteil des Sterbens in Spielen mit hohem Schwierigkeitsgrad wie Dark Souls oder gar dem kompletten Verlust einer gestorbenen Videospielfigur in Story-Games wie Heavy Rain, Until Dawn oder Mass Effect. Der Tod begleitet uns also auch ständig in der Videospielwelt. Dabei gibt es auch einige Spiele wie die Assassin’s Creed-Reihe, die mit dem Scheitern durch Kontexte innerhalb der Story noch mal ganz andere Richtungen einspielen oder auch Spiele wie The Stanley Parable, die das Thema narrativ in einer Meta-Ebene selbst diskutieren. Neben diesem Hauptthema besprechen wir zu Beginn etwas die Lage der aktuellen digitalen Messen und Präsentation in der schwierigen Covid-19-Zeit. Kritik, Anregungen und eure Meinungen sind natürlich immer gerne gesehen und werden im Podcast vorgelesen. Schreibt uns und folgt uns auf Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, iTunes oder Spotify. Viel Spaß!

The boys are back in town with a brand new episode after a long hiatus that no one wants to talk about. This time, the gang gets a moment to themselves to relax on a luxury train with nothing but smooth sailing to Santa Marco where they hope to find info on the next shard of the mirror. Trains have never ever been literary magnets for trouble or conflict in any way shape or form. George smuggles some contraband, Chu Chu is reminded of his own inadequacy, Ricky rubs elbows with the uppercrust, and Buddy can't keep the story straight.

Indie Schwarze Auge ist eine Reihe, in der wir Indie Rollenspiele und Story Games in der Welt des Schwarzen Auges spielen. Indie Schwarze Auge wird im Rahmen der Gauntlet Community organisiert. Wer mitspielen möchte, findet im Gauntlet Calendar die Möglichkeit sich anzumelden. Murderous Ghosts ist ein Rollenspiel von Vincent Baker für zwei Spieler*innen. Fluch des Mantikors ist ein Abenteuer für Das Schwarze Auge aus den späten 80ern von Ulrich Kiesow, Hadmar Wieser und Heinz Thiemann. Diese Session war eine Reminiszenz an dieses Abenteuer ist aber ansonsten diesem nicht ähnlich - auch wenn die ein oder andere Begebenheit augenscheinliche Ähnlichkeiten hat.
