Episode description

Our guest this week is professor Stephen O’Bent who shares with us all about his experience teaching at Digipen, the game development university. We talk about pursuing an education in game design and what that entails, the general Digipen experience, teaching music courses at a specialized academy, and the reasons one might enroll. We also cover all the gaming and Nintendo news, including the recent Sony State of Play, the DICE Awards, Switch 2 patents and pricing, and more. As always, we close with the games we’ve all been playing. Listen to Super Switch Headz on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever you enjoy podcasts.
