Briefly: If people can live-stream playing games, why can’t they live-stream making games? Insomniac, the independent studio behind Sunset Overdrive and the Resistance series, among other games, just launched a new Twitch experiment: live video game development.
They will be working on a small game called Slow Down, Bull and streaming every Saturday morning, starting from 7am AEST.
There’s nothing happening right now of course, but you can check it out next week on Insomniac’s Twitch stream.

Game Jams and so on have had live streaming for some time now. Or is this being actively made by the feedback from the viewers in real-time?
The article doesn’t really word it well but it’s an experiment for Insomniac themselves, not that it’s the first steps to a new age of game development. Or at least, I hope Jason knows that… Apparently they will be listening to feedback from the live audience as they go. Let’s hope it doesn’t get as crazy as Aran Koning’s attempt at a true live game developed by suggestion though.

Just forgetting that their most well-known games are Spyro and Ratchet & Clank.
Thanks, never knew that.
I can’t tell if that’s sarcasm or not…
But seriously, R&C 3 is still my favourite Insomniac game!
Na I was serious, I did not know that. But I haven’t played either.
But really, we all know their best game was FUSE.
Yeah, I think that Kotaku may have actually left that one out on purpose…
