Christopher will provide an overview of BioShock’s 5-year development history, detailing key milestones, mistakes, and lessons learned. He will discuss how these key turning points enabled the team to course-correct the project mid-stream, helping shape a high-concept literary meditation inspired by Art Deco and Objectivist Philosophy into an action-packed, mass-market, accessible hit — without losing it’s soul. Christopher will also be showing never-before-seen footage of several of the original BioShock prototypes.
