Heart to Heart w/Kim Belair: Narrative for Hyper Light Breaker

We had the pleasure of being able to interview Kim Belair, Co-Founder + CEO of Sweet Baby about her agency’s work on Hyper Light Breaker for the past year, narrative writing for games, hiring and career paths in game writing, and more!

Watch Alx Preston sit down with Kim for the latest in our Heart 2 Heart Series.

Here are some highlights from the stream, compiled by our wonderful mod Polare.
  • SweetBaby has worked on HLB for a year.
  • Story details from Hyper Light Drifter may be “pulled into” Breaker’s story, but it is not a continuation of Drifter’s story nor a sequel.
  • Easter Eggs are more than likely to appear.
  • One goal is to make the co-op and single player story experiences “seamless”.
  • "Empathy” is a word to help convey HLB’s tone.
  • Not traveling to HLD locations, “different story, different land”.
  • HLB will likely not have voice acting.
