Get to know the people that make great videogames
[Sup Holmes is a weekly talk show for people that make great videogames. It airs live every Sunday at 4pm EST onYoutube, and can be found in Podcast form onLibsynandiTunes.]
Last Sunday on Sup Holmes we welcomed Johnnemann Nordhagen, former programmer at 2K Marin (Bioshock 2) and Fullbright (Gone Home) to the program. Johnnemann has had already had an amazing career, and he’s just getting started. Not long ago he helped create therubber ducks PS3 tech demo, and now he’sheading up his own studio. Just goes to show how far passion and healthy chances can take you.
Wetalked about a lot of stuff, from the backlash againstGone Home, the pros and cons of working on the follow up to a game likeBioshock, the fears of “hardcore” gamers that their favorite genres may end up being squeezed out by quieter fare, and a lot more. It was that last topic that lead Johnnemann to talk about the criticism thatGone Homeis “not a game” and what may inspire it. Where do sandwiches end and where do pizzas begin? That’s the kind of Edward Nigma, Sphinx-tier riddling you’ll only find on Sup Holmes.
Thanks again to Johnnemann to appearing on the show, andtune in today at 4pmwhen we welcome Teddy Less of Cellar Door Games (Rogue Legacy) to the program. We’ll be giving out a code for the game on PS Vita/PS4, so be sure to watch if you like free games.
