Bio:
Paul Richards dove head-first from high school into the games industry in 1997 via ION Storm, and continued his concept artist role at id Software, 3D Realms, Ritual Entertainment and Raven Software. His current home is Austin-based Vigil Games, where he produces reams of drawings for their forthcoming "Darksiders" and "Warhammer 40K" titles. In his interactive demo "Thumb War", Paul will drop you into the trenches of iterative design with a combat simulation so real, you'll think you're on the front lines of pre-production. Imagination and adrenaline are your allies as this shell shocked vet shows you how tiny pictures quickly communicate big ideas. Bring a pencil!
