How One Developer Cheated His Way To The Perfect Smurf Village and Why →
Awesome. ::lol::
Jenova Chen is the designer of genre-bending, artfully crafted games Cloud, FlOw and Flower. He’s the co-founder of ThatGameCompany and the recipient of a master’s degree from the University of Southern California’s Interactive Media Division. He’s also a cheater.
At least when it comes to Capcom’s iTune Farmville knock-off game Smurfs’ Village. But unlike me, he cheats with purpose. He cheats to learn, to advance his understanding of game design and, perhaps, also to have a really kick-ass Smurf village.
