ETAO Podcast, Episode 105.
http://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/etao.files.wordpress.com/2021/03/etao-podcast-105-chevy-ray.mp3
Chevy Ray has been making games for a long time now—though most of them are currently tough to play; RIP Flash—but is probably best known for Ikenfell, a tactical RPG about going to magic school, working through difficult relationships, and petting a great many cats.
Here Chevy talks about what it means to keep an RPG character-focused, the difference between nuance and subtlety, his love of “setpiece games,” and the significant hidden benefits of pursuing accessibility.
You can get Ikenfell on Steam Humble, GOG, PlayStation, Xbox (where it’s included in GamePass), and Switch. You can get the soundtrack on Bandcamp.

• Here’s THE MEATPUNK MANIFESTO.
• That game Chevy was talking about was Genital Jousting.
• Chevy’s episode of Eggplant is just wonderful.
• Cherry Thompson is definitely a person you should know.
• As is Ikenfell’s lead sensitivity consultant, Joanna Blackheart.
• Those interested in accessibility in games can also check out Can I Play That? and these game accessibility guidelines.
• And here’s that Bryce Johnson talk.
• If you do want to play the Linda & Joan prologue, “Four Months Earlier,” before listening to the next episode, you can do so here.
