140: Minding Your Manors with Botany Manor

Eggplant: The Secret Lives of Games - A podcast by Eggplant: The Secret Lives of Games - Fridays

We're joined by Laure De Mey and Kitt Byrne of Balloon Studios to chat about their Victorian first-person puzzler Botany Manor. We discuss building a space that feels the right amount of "real," letting history guide your setting, weaving a subtly affecting narrative, and...priest holes.
