Misdirection Games Presents: Riposte! Video Game

Dialogue Copywriting & Marketing Lead

In-Game Dialogue

For the multiplayer PvP game Riposte!, I was brought on board to develop the in-game dialogue, particularly the medieval-inspired “trash talk” exchanged between characters. As the Senior Copywriter and Creative Lead for this project, I immersed myself in extensive research, delving into archaic insults and early colloquial language to authentically capture the historical essence. I then creatively adapted these elements to resonate with contemporary players, blending old-world charm with modern-day slang. My work ensured that the dialogue not only felt authentic and engaging but also added a unique and memorable flavor to the gaming experience, enhancing player immersion and enjoyment.

Riposte! Marketing

I was also responsible for crafting the marketing copy for the Riposte! Steam page and social media channels. This included writing both the short and long descriptions for the game's Steam page, designed to capture the attention of potential players and convey the game's unique appeal in a succinct and compelling manner. My copy highlighted the game's key features, immersive gameplay, and distinctive medieval-themed "trash talk," enticing gamers to download and play. Additionally, I created engaging and shareable social media content that drove community engagement, built excitement for the game's release, and maintained ongoing player interest.
