BtC - Sydney Engelstein on Delivering a Winning Pitch
About this episode
Ellie Dix sits down with Sydney Engelstein to unpack what makes a game pitch succeed — and fail. Sydney shares some of the worst pitches she's witnessed, what separates a great pitch from a weak one (regardless of the game itself), and how designers can present themselves with confidence.
They also explore whether physical prototypes are always necessary, how passion plays into the pitch, and Sydney's own experiences as a game designer.
