  <title>Episode 67 - Player sexuality and consent (With Fae Daunt + Zhia Zariko)</title>
  <description> What should we think about when we bring sex and intimacy into video games?&amp;amp;nbsp; In this episode, we explore issues of player sexuality, in-game intimacy, representations of consent, and how video games can take chances and explore sexuality responsibly. --------------------------- Our guest for this episode are:  Zhia Zariko is a media and communication expat into games design and development. Originally studying written communication, she did an elective in games, aesthetics and culture and never looked back. She now holds a Masters on Let's Play videos from RMIT, Australia, and has been teaching games design and theory for 5 years. She is currently in pre-production for a narrative-driven game on romance, intimacy, and vulnerability in a dark fantasy universe.&amp;quot;  Fae Daunt is an Australian-born, English-temporarily-raised, Australian-returned academic, researcher, and developer. Turning their experience in web into an endless curiosity for development and design, they have married their cultural experiences and academic knowledge into a sort of cosmic horror of curiosity. Fae wishes to further discussions of inclusivity, safe exploration, and understanding in games.
