We're joined by Michael Brough himself for a bonus chat on the thrilling occasion of 868-BACK’s release day. Don’t worry, we don’t spoil the new game at all (except to say it’s fantastic! Go buy it now on Steam!!) We discuss Michael’s journey to this launch day, how his process for making art has and hasn’t changed over the years, how he’s learned to care for himself creatively and otherwise amidst periods of illness, how he does (and doesn’t) draw connections between artistic mediums, and his impressions of our series so far, among other reflections from his development career.
