New speaker announced:
Ken Levine - Ghost Story Games
What happens when one of games’ most influential creators sits down to unpack the tension between authored story, player agency and systems-driven design?
Story, Systems and Surprise
Ken Levine is the creator of BioShock and BioShock Infinite, and one of the defining voices in narrative game design. At MAC, he joins us for a live conversation on writing process, influences, dramatic reversals, performance, and the challenge of balancing linear storytelling with systemic play - with a look ahead to Ghost Story Games’ upcoming title, Judas.
