A Story About My Uncle

(

• ... that 2012 indie video game A Story About My Uncle was developed by students of Södertörn University? Source: Shipping your first game while you're still in school: A Story About My Uncle

• Reviewed: soon

• The full review will be to follow, but right now I'd suggest adding another part to the hook instead of just mentioning that it was developed at a university. Maybe a brief explanation of the game, or why the university students made it? Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 00:09, 16 December 2019 (UTC)

ALT1... that the indie video game A Story About My Uncle developer's had to teach themselves how to use the game development software?

ALT2... that the student project video game was "re-developed professionally" to publish the game in 2014?

@Narutolovehinata5: Maybe this? ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSA^talk 06:10, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

The first new hook has potential, but I'd suggest copyediting it. Would the below wording be acceptable to you?

ALT1a ... that the developers of the indie video game A Story About My Uncle had to teach themselves how to use Unreal Engine to produce the game?

@Narutolovehinata5: Yes. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSA^talk 07:15, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

• Full review needed now that ALT1a is set. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:44, 31 December 2019 (UTC)
  • Date, length and hook all OK, I'm fine with the original. However @CAPTAIN MEDUSA: a QPQ is needed. Just ping me when you've done it and I can pass it. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 16:20, 2 January 2020 (UTC)

      • Thank you, I'm sorry you had to wait so long for a review @CAPTAIN MEDUSA:. Good to go. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 18:41, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

• Hi, I came by to promote this, and tried to do some editing on it. The Development section is not so well-written, and the quote template needs to be expanded with the source. Who is the fellow saying this, anyway? Yoninah (talk) 23:13, 7 January 2020 (UTC)

• Yoninah, he is a critic; I have moved the quote to reception section. ~~ CAPTAIN MEDUSA^talk 06:25, 8 January 2020 (UTC)

• That's better, thanks. Yoninah (talk) 11:48, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
