I’m Pierre Buty, a Lyon-based Game and Narrative Designer with 15 years of experience. I’ve worked within video game studios at Cyanide, Virtuos and Ubisoft, and shipped about ten titles as an indie boardgame author. Most of them are story-driven titles or rely on mechanics with emotional or narrative resonance.
I’ve also contributed to the game design community by teaching in multiple schools and by writing 40+ articles and reviews. I’m a longtime member of the SAJ, the French board game authors union, focusing on work conditions for Narrative Designers in the boardgame industry.
I love turning ideas into playable experiences and tweaking prototypes until they feel right. I maintain clear and visual documentation to keep the team on the right track, but remain aware that iteration is the lifeblood of game development. Great games and great stories are a matter of love, time, active listening of feedbacks and careful polish.
