NYU Game Center Lecture Series Presents Bennett Foddy
Join us for our first Lecture Series event of Spring 2026, featuring Bennett Foddy!
Why did I make this?
Join us for a career retrospective with Bennett Foddy, as he tries to make sense of a portfolio of games that is often described as ‘frustrating’, ‘punishing’, or even ‘sadistic’. What dark urges drive him to continue exploring the vein of choke-machines, beginner-simulators, and brainwashers that define his career?
Bennett Foddy is a Brooklyn-based independent game designer who is best-known for his games QWOP, Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy, and his recent contributions to the 2025 title Baby Steps. From 2013 to 2021, he was a member of the full-time faculty at the NYU Game Center.
Time: 7:00 pm EST
