Genre Joy
Kate McCabe
In this workshop, we will look at how to dive headfirst into our preferred genres but also, what we can do when we are faced with those less common genres that we don't know much about.
We'll be covering tropes and we'll examine how narrowing a genre down to a sub-genre can open us up to different moves.
Finally, we'll examine how genre can help us create new short-form games and new long-form formats.
