I think, I think I'd be set.

This is Danielle Riendeau from gamedeveloper.com and also the Berklee College of Music, actually, the game design program.

The game I wanna talk about that's been very, very special to me is Titanium Quartz, uh, which just came out last month or so, uh, by A.P. Thompson.

I played it on Steam.

So Titanium Court is a very special game.

It's a very interesting game.

It has sort of a match three layer, just like a Bejeweled, or maybe I'm actually sort of, uh, aging myself there by saying Bejeweled, but it's like a match three layer where you sort of, um, arrange your battlefields, and then it has an entire tactical layer.

Yes

... too, is the other thing.

Like, I...

The kind of, like, composure as well as empathy for another human being that you need to do to, to be in this moment, this, not even moment, but, like, this long and arduous, you know, for, for a person who's gone through trauma like this, process while also bringing this, you know, very young and very new-

Yeah

...

I'm, I can be a little slow sometimes in my own, [laughs] uh, practice, but I always try my absolute hardest to make a connection with a patient, to create a rapport with a patient, to really, really, really make someone feel seen, even if it's the shittiest day of their life and I only see them for 20 minutes.

I try my damnedest to, to really make that connection with people in, in the capacity I can, and never overstepping, just in the capacity that I can.

Yeah

... like, "He's not a social worker.

Why is he doing that?" And I kinda turned to her and I was like, "That's so much of what this is." Even me in my very limited capacity as an EMT, I, you know, on certain calls I am there just trying to help somebody through a bad day.

I'm barely doing anything medical, uh, for a person.

I'm just trying to get them to the hospital so they can get the next level of care that they need.

That is so much of working in any kind of emergency services, at least from my point of view.

Any kind of-

Yeah, yeah, right.
