[Interview] Unicon CEO Jang Nuri: 'I Wanted to Make Games That Convey Hope'

At Unicon, we believe games can be more than just entertainment; they can be a source of comfort and hope. Our latest project, 'Emberd Time,' embodies this philosophy. Set in a city struggling to survive a devastating ice age, this idle adventure simulation game aims to deliver a message of resilience and optimism, even in the bleakest of circumstances. We're crafting a unique experience with charming cartoon-style characters and engaging visuals, all designed to uplift players. As CEO Jang Nuri, my journey from fine arts to web novel writing has deeply influenced my approach to game development. I'm driven by the desire to create games that not only entertain but also provide a sense of encouragement, letting players know they are doing well and that hope persists. This is the unique perspective Unicon brings to the indie game scene, offering a heartfelt experience that resonates deeply with players seeking more than just a challenge.
