Adam Cook: "Sam Barlow is open, and we chatted for just shy of two hours about everything you can imagine. From the stunning performance of Viva Seifert to just how strict the script was. There are strong spoilers after the forty minute mark, so I’d suggest you buy and play the game before you delve further than that.
Among other things, I asked Sam if the off-camera detective was ever going to speak, before it was finished, as well as what the thinking behind the music is. We also spoke about Serial, and I tried to find out the conclusive meaning behind the game (you’ll have to listen to find out if he gives it), but also what he thinks of people saying Her Story isn’t a game."
BLG writes, "Her Story is the first game created independently by game creator Sam Barlow. Sam would start Half-Mermaid Studios, expanding his scope and narrative on each subsequent project. But it’s his first independent adventure, Her Story, that left an impression on gamers and the industry as a whole."
Her Story developer Sam Barlow says he was offered "exposure" to put his game in Tesla's cars, and Untitled Goose Game's publisher has a similar story.
Doesnt seem like a good idea. Maybe if its locked while driving but someone would find a way to unlock it.
FMV games may not be the hippest or most popular games in the world, but there's always a place for them.
