Conversations about games, community, and the reasons we play. Kritiqal Care is a monthly interview show highlighting the breadth of the games community. Nathalie is joined by tabletop writers, video game designers, pixel artists, streamers, YouTube critics, and others from all corners of the medium to explore games as personal, creative, and political. These are rough times, but games can help us feel less alone through it all.

Episode 87: Claire Morwood

Claire Morwood (she/her) is an indie game developer whose work explores multimedia interactivity, handmade assets, and introspective narratives. She joined me to discuss her most recent project, Asterism, an interactive concept album about exploring the galaxy. We touch on writing music for play, how creating the game from physical objects impacted its design, and the value of a detailed dev log. Later we remember how good libraries are.

You can learn more about Claire’s games on her website and follow her on Bluesky @shimmerglitch.bsky.social.
