Celine R. Lafosse 

My work and research focus on game production and interactive storytelling, with an emphasis on using interactivity itself, not just dialogue or visuals, to deepen narrative experience. I’m a game producer and founder of Studio T12 with a Master of Science in Computational Media from the University of California, Santa Cruz, where I worked in the Game Design and Art Collaboration and the Expressive Intelligence Studio, combining research-driven design with hands-on production practice. I’ve worked across indie and large-scale teams (60–70+ developers), focusing on production pipelines, narrative-driven development, and keeping complex projects aligned from concept to delivery.

 

My most prominent work includes "Silent Numbers", a thesis project showcased at Steam Nextfest 2026, and Academical 3.0, a choice-based interactive story developed for RCR education. Across all my work, I’m interested in how structure, interactivity, and collaboration come together to support meaningful storytelling in games.
