Game designer Ste Curran gives an endearingly unorthodox talk at GDC Next about the value of making meaningful use of your time and why memorable moments -- within games and without -- are everything.
"How do you want the thing you're making to be remembered? How do you want to be remembered?"
- Ste Curran speaks during his GDC Next 2013 session, "In the Time It Takes a Heart to Beat," available free on GDC Vault. There's no easy way to explain what Ste Curran's GDC Next presentation is about -- you have to see it for yourself. In Curran's words, this is a story about a 3AM phone call, a girl called Epher and a heartbeat. The game designer and writer talks about moments in games: how we remember them, why we remember them and why they're the one thing you need to care about. This session is about games, life and death -- it is not a traditional lecture.
In addition to this presentation, the GDC Vault offers numerous other free videos, audio recordings, and slides from many of the recent Game Developers Conference events, and the service offers even more members-only content for GDC Vault subscribers.
