Al Lowe is the creator of Leisure Suit Larry, the irreverent Sierra On-Line franchise that broke all the unspoken rules of game development. A crucial contributor through all of Sierra On-Line’s brightest years, Al went from teaching music to students to developing videogames loaded with wit and personality. In our inaugural episode of Game Dev Story, a series where we talk to veteran and indie developers about their history in games, Al joins our show to share his philosophy about game development and to give the inside scoop about one of the most interesting studios of the ’80s and ’90s. Like playing one of Al’s games, listening to him reflect on his career in games is compelling and very charming.
