About Us
Into Storymode is an initiative exploring how games and interactive technology can become a medium for storytelling, reflection, and meaningful human experience.
We believe games and technology can do more than entertain. They can create spaces where lived experiences are expressed, perspectives are shared, and stories are not only told, but explored through interaction.
Into Storymode began with a desire to shift how games and technology are understood— not only as tools for excitement, novelty, or spectacle, but as creative media that can hold meaning, care, and human complexity.
Today, our work takes shape in several connected ways.
"I have a story to express"
An idea, a feeling, a perspective—
and you're curious how it could become interactive.
"I want my story to engage others"
A theme, a question, a message—
and you want people to experience it, not just read it.
Events and conversations
Into Storymode hosts talks, gatherings, and public conversations around storytelling in games and interactive media.
Through sessions like Playable Stories, we create space for designers, artists, writers, and curious audiences to reflect on how stories become playable.
Learning and practice
We teach and share approaches for transforming stories into games and interactive experiences.
This includes methods, workshops, and future resources that support both developers and non-developers exploring interactive storytelling.
Tools and emerging technology
We explore how new technologies can support storytelling practice.
This includes experimentation with AI-assisted workflows, narrative systems, and future tools that help people organise, shape, and develop stories in new ways.
Creative work and collaboration
Into Storymode also operates as a creative practice, taking on commissions and collaborations in games and interactive experience design.
