Ted Price chats with Matt Nava about Giant Squid's work on
ABZÛ and The Pathless, his inspirations as a
youth that led him to the VFX industry and his first big break,
understanding the difficulties of taking too much on when starting
your own studio, establishing a studio culture and dealing with
conflict, what being indie means now compared to a decade ago, and
how to emphasize elegant design in a full game
experience.
Matt Nava is the Founder and
Creative Director of Giant Squid
which developed ABZÛ and The Pathless. He also previously
worked as the Art Director on thatgamecompany's Flower and Journey.
