Overview: | This talk will go over the ways in which the speaker has used their game design background in non-traditional ways to carve out a serious games niche for their career. The speaker will provide examples from his history as well as advice for attendees seeking an alternative to the traditional game industry career path and a way to continue to grow and progress as a game developer outside the hyper competitive major studios or in locations where there are traditionally less game jobs. An emphasis on how game development and design can be used in unexpected ways can be inspirational in finding new creative outlets and financial stability. |
