EPISODE 48 - AGP with video game designer Rob Buchheit

Rob Buchheit (Boo-kite) is co-founder and CEO of Nectar Game Studios, a new videogame studio based out of Cincinnati, Ohio. He has been passionate about videogames since he could hold a controller, and that interest has only increased over time. Rob's passion for game design eventually lead to a Masterâ??s in Game Design and Production from Full Sail University. It was a difficult and exhausting trial-by-fire education, but the friendships and experience he gained there were invaluable. At Full Sail, he worked on three student games and was also chosen for an internship at their User Experience Lab. After graduation, he returned home to Ohio and struggled for months seeking game dev jobs to no avail. It was tempting to give up and find any normal (boring) work then, but fate intervened and he met his co-founder Ben Cassell (aka CohhCarnage on Twitch) and they started collaborating on Project Resurgence together.
