When it comes to the deluge of indie titles that Sony promotes, it gets hard to keep track of what’s going on with this side of video game releases. However, sometimes there are particular projects that simply catch our eye more than others, such as Rime or Yooka-Laylee.

We couldn’t help ourselves from finding out more about developer White Rabbit’s first foray into the industry, so we got in touch with lead designer and programmer Jean Canellas to find out some of the history, inspirations, and deeper gameplay aspects behind Death’s Gambit.
