Our lead writer, Steve Breslin, holds a Ph.D. in English Literature,
and has been writing video games for about 20 years. He began writing
in the early days of multi-user text-based games, moved on to take an
avant-garde role in developing narrative structure in single-player
text-based games, and finally entered the mainstream of the industry
in 2008.
Steve has published numerous works, including several articles
on theories of dynamic writing and story design. You can
find his latest article on game writing

His most recent game
writing credits include
Wasteland Angel and
Pirates of Black Cove.
Modern gamers, especially in English markets, have a very high
expectation of writing quality and story. However, in many cases,
games are written in English by non-native speakers or roughed out
by amateur writers.
Breslin Studios specialises in polishing texts such as these: not
only does the final product sound as though it was written
by a native-speaker, but it also reflects the craftsmanship of an
expert games writer. Naturally, this service includes a high standard
of proofreading and close editing, but as needed we can provide what
is sometimes termed "script doctoring" – we can suggest stylistic
improvements to make your game even more exciting and engaging or,
as needed, rewrite and restructure the story to maximize its impact.
We take great pride and satisfaction in fulfilling our mission: to
help you realise your creative vision, and make sure the published
game is every bit as exceptional as you dreamed. One of our key
skills is the crafting of dialogue – we ensure your characters
have personality and authenticity. Whether it's a gritty action
hero spitting laconic one-liners, a gruff orc snarling at everyone he
meets, or a conniving Necromancer spouting witticisms, we can ensure
your characters sound convincing and engaging. No matter the genre,
our goal is to make sure your players and fans become engrossed in
the game, for that coveted total immersion experience.
So please contact us about your latest project – we're keen to
start working with you!
