Show Notes
This week we welcome Lisa Blakie, narrative designer for Colette's new favorite game, Old Friends Dog Game, a pet sim where you run a shelter for elderly dogs that also exists in the real world.
Lisa shares the fascinating story of the shelter's rise to prominence online, and the origin of the beloved game. She also explains the ethos of Runaway Games, a small New Zealand studio making mobile experiences about the natural world.
