Jason Rohrer is one of the most admired and respected game designers amongst his peers. Whilst his games are typically considered too individual and challenging to garner wider commercial success across a mainstream audience, there’s no denying the influence he has on those interested in the art and design of videogames.

In 2016 he became the first videogame creator to have a solo retrospective of work exhibited in a museum – with arguably his most famous release, Passage, positioned alongside the likes of home security MMO The Castle Doctrine and the impacting, experimental storytelling work Sleep is Death.

Indie By Design host John Robertson talks to Rohrer about everything from his early life and how that has influenced him, his family and how those around him impacts his games, the drive for originality and his opinion on some of the less thoughtful responses to his work.

Brought to you by the writers and creators of Independent By Design: Art & Stories of Indie Game Creation, the Indie By Design Podcast (IBD) is the show that goes behind the scenes to explore the world of game design and game designers.
