Episode 12 - Russ Clarke, West London Games

 
West London Games is a British independent game studio founded by Russ Clarke to develop the ultimate exploration and combat game, TerraTech.  Russ has previously worked at London’s Ideaworks mobile studio until 2012. He developed the first prototype for TerraTech by himself shortly afterwards, pulling in his experience from working on beloved franchises like Metal Gear, Call of Duty, Resident Evil, Tomb Raider and Fable. After spending some time working as a consultant he returned to the TerraTech prototype to turn his vision into a full blown indie project.
Join us as we discuss the radical growth of "Let's Plays" and how they can be beneficial to the developer. Moreover, we start with his first machine, the BBC Micro, and how the experiences for gamers in the UK contrasted those of gamers in the US in the 80s and early 90s.
