Jörg Tittel

Director / Publisher / Founder, RapidEyeMovers Ltd.

Jörg is a writer, director, producer and designer of films, plays and games. He is in post-production on the live action / painted animation feature A Winter’s Journey starring John Malkovich, made a collaboration with PlayStation and Sony Pictures Classics. The Last Worker, released on VR, consoles, PC (and on Playdate with the spin-off title SKEW) in early 2023, was the only game in competition at the 78th Venice Film Festival. His Golden Joystick nominated C-Smash VRS, based on SEGA’s arcade and Dreamcast classic, is coming to Meta Quest and Pico headsets after a successful start on PS VR2. It is the first game by RapidEyeMovers, with the second in active development. Later this year, they will launch Humanise Festival of Play, transforming the idyllic town of Kendal, UK, into a playable map.

Sessions by Jörg Tittel

Building Big Dreams on Smaller Budgets

In-Person Day 1 - 16:30 - 17:30

Language: English (accompanied with Mandarin/Chinese subtitles.)

14,000 games literally dropped on Steam's digital landfill in 2023, and over 20,000 jobs have been lost in an industry suffocating on its own weight and from antiquated, unsustainable production methods. In this talk, Jörg proposes a radical new approach to designing, making and releasing games - a 'model' which he successfully tested with RapidEyeMovers' Golden Joystick nominated C-Smash VRS (a collaboration with SEGA), out now on VR and coming to PS5 in late summer. Let's make better games and make them better.

Everyone is welcome to attend as the talk covers all areas of our medium, from the creative process and intentional design to working with platforms and releasing / marketing our games. Jörg's goal is to inspire, empower and lead to more sustainable, impactful and human games.
