For Handmade Pixels<\/a>, I did a rather extensive series of interviews<\/a> with developers and festival organizers.<\/p>\n

I was interested in general questions of how they framed their own role and how they saw the history of independent games, as well as in the concrete details of their development or festival-organizing practices.<\/p>\n

I am dropping half the interviews now, and will publish the rest during the later months of 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
