Ep 299 - Aligning Your Marketing and Game's UX with Neil Edwards

Whenever we think about what makes a great game, generally speaking it boils down to the positive experience players have. However, when making games, the focus shouldn’t be making a great game, but making the right game for a particular audience and delivering more value than what’s currently available. But even with this shift in mindset, studios and developers can still struggle with how to communicate their game’s experience to prospective players. Thankfully, our guest shares UX design concepts and frameworks that can be translated into marketing efforts that clearly communicate a game’s vision and experience to prospective players, making this a cohesive and holistic approach that fully caters to the player’s journey and aligns marketing with UX.
