This year’s GDC has a rich selection of narrative design offerings! I’m particularly excited for the “Not in the Writer’s Manual” session, the “Setting the Stage: Player as Performer” presentation, and the workshops on game storytelling fundamentals and portfolio building. Interactive narrative is such a fresh, young format for telling stories, and I’m excited to really dive into it.
