About this listen

Michelle Vuckovich’s career in gaming traces a path from licensed console titles to the cutting edge of cloud gaming. She began at SEGA, contributing to projects like The Incredible Hulk and the trend-chasing Daisy Fuentes Pilates on Wii, before moving into the fast-paced world of social games at Zynga. In this conversation, we reflect on SEGA’s experiments with Marvel properties, explore the creative tension of casual game development, and dive deep into Google Stadia, where Michelle offers candid insights into the platform’s ambitions, its growing pains, and the challenges of launching a new paradigm in game streaming. Along the way, she shares what it’s like to navigate sharp disagreements in the industry, and what those moments reveal about collaboration under pressure.
