Welcome to another episode of The Gamerheads Podcast! In this episode, we're in for a treat as Eddie Cai, the brilliant mind behind the game StarVaders, shares his fascinating journey from a classic game enthusiast to a game creator. Listen in as Eddie takes you through a trip down memory lane, reminiscing about his favorite classic games like Portal and Roller Coaster Tycoon, and his love for boardgames, and how these games inspired him to create a unique blend of established genres in StarVaders - a deck-building, turn-based tactical space invaders game.
Eddie offers an inside look at the game development process as we continue our conversational adventure, revealing how he incorporated the artwork into the game design and his future plans for the game's narrative and character arcs. We'll also discuss the diverse and complex bosses that add a challenge to StarVaders.
