In this casual yet insightful chat, I sit down with Renee Gittins—former General Manager at Phoenix Labs, founder of indie studio Stumbling Cat, and former Executive Director of the International Game Developers Association (IGDA). Renee openly shares her unique journey through game development, including stories from launching her indie game Potions: A Curious Tale, her leadership experiences at Phoenix Labs, and the unexpected struggles she faced with online harassment.
We also dive into Renee’s thoughts on how studios can build healthier, more supportive gaming communities and why mental health matters so much in the industry. If you're curious about what life is really like behind the scenes in game dev, or just looking for some inspiration from someone who’s been through it all, this conversation is for you.
