This week's episode is an interview with Remy Siu, the creative director of the recently released 1000xRESIST. It's a phenomenally good game that pushes video game storytelling forward in several interesting ways. Our discussion touched on games-as-art, diasporic narratives, working through Covid, the origins of "hekki", hooking up with Fellow Traveller, the incredible player and critical response, and lots more. Thanks to Remy for coming on, and enjoy the show!
