In this episode, I spent some time with Romain Mesa, founder of KnightStudio and developer of Mama: Die and Retry, an old school platformer celebrating the heroes of the working class. A former lawyer, Romain is a dedicated believer of the argument of video games as a form of art – and as someone who did his dissertation on the topic, I couldn't miss the occasion to have a beautiful conversation around everything art, literature, aesthetic and game design. Enjoy!
