Main Quest Podcast

From Zelda to Game Dev: Chris Anderson Talks Risk System & Building Newt Industries

In the premiere episode of "Quest Givers," I sit down with game developer Chris Anderson of Newt Industries—creators of Risk System, Garbinge, and the upcoming Bangle & Maggie.

We discuss how a chance playground meet-up sparked a development partnership, how Chris's early PC tinkering turned into indie game passion, and the major challenges of the gaming industry.
