Leonardo Ferreira's Blog

Well, hello there. I am a game design student, living in a quiet, sunlit country below the Equator. I plan to, someday, work as a game designer, but for now, I'm just an avid reader of anything game-design related, and sometimes I try my hand a making simple games (and now I'm trying my best to finish one that is not that simple).

I like game narrative discussions, 2D, innovation and crazy games.

I dislike fanboyish discussions, trendy games, social games, pretentious games, the concept of "intellectual property", and lack of sense of humor in general.

I 'm sad that their bold experiment ended not working, because TSW, content-wise, was one of the most interesting experiences of the year. But now I 'm happy because I 'll be able to play without going broke...

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing... So many good stuff and great games, and we 're still focused on the misoginy-immaturity-corporate evilness triumvirate. I mean, i like discussing and reading about these topics as much as the next guy, but since it 's the fourth day, I 'm getting ...
