The best production talks of GDC
Game production isn't always the most glorious or heralded work in this industry, but it's absolutely crucial to a smooth (or even functional) development process. Producers organize and facilitate every aspect of game dev, and some of the best talks (and interviews) the Game Developer crew wrote up at GDC 2023 this year not only reflected this importance — they also had your truly taking copious notes for my own practice. We couldn't attend every talk (we'll be checking Vault for the rest), but here are a few of our favorites. We're also including interviews with Alt.Ctrl.GDC creators and IGF finalists, who had particular production challenges and solutions to share.
