Yesterday’s Casual Connect kick-off had Big Fish Games’ Jeremy Lewis introducing the conference at the Benaroya Hall in the epicentre of Seattle, and after some insight about the 35 represented countries and over 2,000 attendees, he passed it over to Ed Viestus. Ed is a conqueror of all altitudinal challenges and an obsessive, successful mountain cilmber. He discussed some of the greatest challenges and successes of his life, and really kicked things off in a great way. I look at 5 lessons of his lessons and compare it to success in the world of game design and development.
