Returning to the Industry
2009 October 30
At the end of this quarter, I am returning to the game industry full-time. It is happening fast (from an academic perspective), and it still feels somewhat unreal. I am chronicling the whole trip from A to B for a publication.
As anyone who’s a senior level game designer knows, opportunities come along pretty regularly, but I love my teaching gig and my students. This was literally the opportunity of a lifetime, and one I am very excited about. When I am able to, I will provide more info.
Congrats, Brenda!
I’m certainly excited for you, and excited to see where you go from here. Congratulations!
Its not unreal – This is REAL! Go for it and the best of luck to you.
Congratulations!
Personally, this is bittersweet. On one hand, I really only just discovered you and the SCAD game design programme. After evaluating a few different schools, you’re the biggest reason U chose SCAD and I’m sad I won’t be learning from you live. On the other hand, this is fantastic news and I wish you every happiness and continues success in everything you do.
Congratulations and best wishes.
Congrats Brenda! Can’t wait to hear more about the new game.
I’ll miss you at PH but this is a good excuse for not coming.
Hope to see you at GDC.
I must agree with Gita. Only just transferring to SCAD this year, I was hoping to take Intro to Video Game Design with you in the spring. However I guess it is good, cause then I can send you my portfolio, and have you as a potential insider contact inside the industry.
That’s cool and a drag. Having someone with as unique and original a perspective as yours in video game education is important, and while it’s awesome that I might finally get to play a great game designed by you, I can’t help but feel there will be a loss.
I hope to see you at the upcoming GDC as well.
