Interview:
✧In one or two sentences, what is your game about?
Imogen is an exploration of the process of grief and acceptance over the unexpected loss of a loved one as told through the perspective of grieving, divorced parents. We want to translate the narrative complexity and emotional depth of contemporary fiction while creating an unconventional interactive structure through analog stick motion-based narrative expression.
✧Talk about your teammates! What was everyone’s role?
JD was the programmer and sound designer for Imogen, Devinne was the visual artist and project manager, and we both had a hand in writing the narrative and designing the overall experience. As a two-person team, we had ambitious goals from the project's beginnings, but our complementary expertise and aligned vision enabled us to explore freely and eventually feel confident in our production process. We've become better collaborators through Imogen and undoubtedly closer friends.
