Indie Tech Talk 27
Jim Crawford
Preserving a Sense of Discovery in the Age of Spoilers
Thursday, April 23, 7pm
Game Innovation Lab, 5 Metrotech Center at NYU
For a child in the 1980s, playing a video game meant entering a world operating under confusing and effectively unknowable rules, in which anything could happen. This context lent enormous weight and mystery to every game, with no additional effort on the part of the developer. Nowadays, anything you might wonder about a game, you can look up online. Developers must work hard to make a game mysterious, even for players who are willing to play along. This talk will cover a number of techniques for doing so, and attempt to create a unifying philosophy for them.

Jim Crawford has been making video games for over twenty years, but nobody noticed until he moved to the Bay Area and started making friends with game journalists. Since making Frog Fractions, he's told day jobs to screw off and is riding the making games train until the conductor realizes that he forgot to buy a ticket.

So, uh, _this_ is Frog Fractions 2?

it's a lecture.
so
maybe

the salon recap blogs of the new girl last season were frog fractions 2 and we didnt even notice

did anyone play pony island yer

yet, even

yeah it's entertaining. the actual "gameplay" is a drag (which fits the fiction) but then there's way too much of it, which also fits the fiction i guess. maybe it's too good? worth $5 for sure

On sale right now, isn't it?

yeah, you can save that extra dollar

i got through pony island in a sitting because i figured otherwise i'd probably just never go back to it, entertaining i guess but ultimately cynical, made me want to be playing something with actual gameplay, etc

Maybe a 2-year ARG leading to a video about soup is Frog Fractions 2, rather than it being a teaser. I mean, that seems pretty Frog Fractions-y.

the real frog fractions 2 was the friends we made along the way

I think we just elected Frog Fractions 2

Supposedly the hat DLC is actually another sequel? I'm not sure if people are trolling about this.
