been researching (planetary) geochemistry for an important character who'll be hanging out at the pizzeria in @owlycrow's new game "PizzaPastaMaro'🍕

(1/6) One of the cooler things I've done while writing for Dune: Awakening, is get to work in the recording booth with the Re-Animator himself, Jeffrey Combs. The whole situation manifested strangely. #DuneAwakening #JeffreyCombs #GameWriting
(2/6) I wrote the Twisted Mentat character Zayn De Witte. When I write a character, I often think of some actor or character as a starting point. It's not something I tell the eventual voice actor, just a springboard to develop a voice as I write. #DuneAwakening #JeffreyCombs #GameWriting
(4/6) Time passes. A teammate messages me about casting and says, "Hey, what do you think of Jeffrey Combs for this part?" What!? Did I manifest this? Am I the god-monster-boy from The Twilight Zone? #DuneAwakening #JeffreyCombs #GameWriting #TwilightZone
(5/6) The recording session was awesome. I allowed myself a little bit of geeking out at the top of it, particularly over the audio of Mr. Combs's one-man show as Edgar Allan Poe. He was surprised and delighted I'd listened to it. #DuneAwakening #JeffreyCombs #GameWriting #EdgarAllanPoe
(6/6) Looking over the Zayn dialogue, he said it gave him Milton Dammers vibes. Then we got to it. He was lovely to work with. #DuneAwakening #JeffreyCombs #GameWriting

In games, the story's effectiveness relies on the relationship between the gamer and the developer.

There are different ways that games can approach storytelling, and they each have their own risks: https://dannyhoman.substack.com/p/dont-wake-the-dreamers
