Red flag or foundation?
Toby Alden's first game, Love, was ridiculously hard. Deliberately. They designed it for his own enjoyment, and that self-indulgent energy became the bedrock of their practice as an artist.
I talked with Toby about Love Eternal, ambient music, and what it means to trust your own taste before anyone else does. Full conversation at killscreen.com.
