This episode I sit down with Emily Greer who co-founded Kongregate in 2006, and then went on her second founding journey with Double Loop Games in 2019. We talk about how her first journey led to her second, and how both were learning experiences in different ways.
I think we often over-mythologize successes like Kongregate - which defined web based games for a generation - and (for very human reasons) under-discuss journeys that end with studio's closing their doors. I'm endlessly appreciative of Emily for being open about the challenges of both kinds of founding journeys, and successes within both, and her personal story of navigating them.
