A picture of me, looking tired probably.

Hello, I’m Hannah Nicklin.

I’m currently Studio Lead and CEO of indie game design studio Die Gute Fabrik, we recently released Mutazione (2019) which I also wrote, narrative designed, and co-produced. We just announced our next title Saltsea Chronicles (2023) on which I was the Creative Director & Game Director. As well as running DGF I am also a writer & narrative designer, producer, artist, academic, performer, activist and lecturer. I have been practicing for over a decade.

You can read more about me on my About page or check out my Credits, too. You can also head to this link to read more about my recently published book Writing for Games: Theory & Practice. Check out my other books or e-zines in my shop, and if you’re really looking for A Time, check out my PhD about the playful arts as anti-capitalist practice.
