The indie title, That Dragon Cancer is a heart wrenching view into the life and death of Joel a child who perished due to cancer. The creators of the game his parents, Amy and Ryan Green joined the program this week to not only tell their son’s story…but also share insight into how games help those who are mourning.

We go over the difficulties the family had making the game while enduring this process…

Why an interactive medium was the best to really showcase what the experience was like…

How art direction played into the creation of empathy…

What they hope this experience will give to other people who are suffering from cancer.

About Video Game Sophistry:
Video Game Sophistry is an opportunity to celebrate the creators and the artistry found in Video Games. I believe that Games are the most effective medium from experiencing another world, and another way to live. Expect to see a series of videos showcasing the narratives hidden in every game, interviews with game developers, along with our bench mark weekly podcast, Dialogue Wheel. 

Andy Borkowski started this program nearly 10 years ago and, in that time, it has changed from a simple YouTube show, to a radio show, a tv show and now once again a YouTube destination. Welcome to VGS.
