This is so helpful. It covers all the essentials of developing a good story, applicable in any form of media, then it focuses on converting the story to a game by adding interactive gameplay elements.

This is my favorite course ever. Dariush teaches in such an engaging way and it shows you how to have a creative yet objective and analyzed mindset for creating a story and narrative for a Video Game.

It was an enjoyable course. maybe better ideas could be given on how to start writing the story because sometimes you don't know where to start.

I really enjoyed this course and the instructors materials, I just wish we were given the chance to work on our own games in the assignments.
