I recently had the opportunity to interview Cory and Nick from Dire Studios Studios about their development studio and upcoming game Gotta Go! As they put it, Dire Nerd Studios is “two coders and a business guy. 80 years of collective nerd culture immersion. A passion for games and a mission to create a great indie game.”
Now about that game!
Gotta Go! places you in the shoes of a 90’s cubicle office worker who is feeling the call of nature. However, simply getting up from your desk and going to the restroom isn’t a simple affair. You have to deal with obstacles in the form of chatty co-workers, ever-watchful bosses, and of course, time itself (you can’t hold it forever).
Thanks to Dire Nerd, we were able to get access to a pre-alpha build of the game. While it’s still in the early stages of development, it’s clear that this studio has a knack for creating a challenging game experience while still injecting humor and making it fun.
Please, check out the interview below, as well as the trailer above, and you can find out more for Dire Nerd Studios at their website www.direnerdstudios.com .
