Signals and Light is a media analysis project by Isaiah Everin, currently Lead AI/Enemy Designer at Crystal Dynamics.
The primary focus is video essays, but this Substack exists to make the work text-accessible to those who prefer that kind of content. Note that sometimes (especially with content focused on formal analysis), missing all of the video clips and diagrams might lose some of the context, but these essays should be readable regardless.
Recent content regards things like Actual Play TTRPGs and Combat Design in action games, but future content will span a range of topics in media, games, and writing.
