    About this Episode

    With Yann we go deep on what it takes to run an iOS game studio, the ups and downs of making successful games and the grind it takes to keep the business going. We touch on the time he won a Scottish BAFTA and how a viral video brought him to the Dragon's den. We also discuss his passion for music and how a random business encounter with Matthew Herbert became a worldwide tour making pig sounding tunes. We then close with a bang exploring a new idea for a sound art piece.
