A MAZE. Magazine: “I have a fucking agenda”

Category : Gaming, Gender May 7th, 2015

I was interviewed briefly for a piece in the current issue of A MAZE. Magazine, which is free to read online right here. The theme for this issue is “women,” and a number of amazing women in and around the games industry are featured. I’m thrilled to be in such fine company.

A MAZE. does a lot of things in around play, and the magazine is a relatively new venture. From the A MAZE. website:

A MAZE. is an international label in the field of independent games, playful media and games culture. Interdisciplinary, game-centered events and productions transcending media channels and cultures are the signature feature of A MAZE.

The issue has a pretty international scope and covers issues like sex and games, women in the tech industry, and women gave developers, and includes a list of awards that includes some really great and innovative games. It’s worth reading the whole issue. If you want to see what I had to say, I’m in the article that starts on page 14, titled “I have a fucking agenda.” I don’t actually swear in my interview, but the article title has it right there in bold print.
