Adanna Nedd, narrative designer (Spirit Swap: Lofi Beats to Match-3 To).

Adanna Nedd is a narrative designer and writer for video games. Born in the Chesapeake Bay State of Maryland, she studied Information Technology & English at Penn State University as a Millennium Scholar. While at Penn State, she started multiple research projects investigating how players represent themselves in video games through their choice of skins.


After graduating, she began writing for games, specialising in character-driven stories focused on people of colour. My guest has written for projects including Celestia, the romance game Kiss U, and, most recently, Spirit Swap: Lofi Beats to Match-3 To, released this month.
