The Short Game

185: Apple Design Awards 2019


Listen Later

Mark Bramhill of the excellent Welcome to Macintosh podcast joins us again to talk about this year’s crop of Apple Design Award winning games. This feels like a strange transition year for Apple in gaming, and we have a number of things to discuss, from the games Apple chose to award to the upcoming Apple Arcade and support for game controllers in iOS 13. Thanks as always to Mark for joining us for what has become a Short Game tradition!
