In conversation with Stefan Freund and Tony Serebriany Live from Spielwarenmesse 2026 (This podcast is in english) When creative visions collide with economic realities, an exciting struggle begins over rules, design, and target audience. This episode dives into collaboration, trust – and the question of how much a concept is allowed to change on its way to becoming a finished game. We talk about creative friction, design compromises, and the moments when true innovation is born. An honest behind-the-scenes look at game development – with real-world stories and plenty of ‘aha’ moments for everyone who loves games and wants to understand how they really come to life.
