Trevor and Ben return for another fun filled episode of Bit Storm. They design an open world game in which you play a flea on a dogs body, Ben tries to kidnap a kid and teach them the art of thieving and finally they redesign the Nintendo Labo to be a Harry Potter like potions lab.

This week, Ben and Trevor will be there for you as they create an adventure game crossing over classic sitcoms, a VR game set in a phone booth during an alien invasion, a game about the friendship between a gestating alien fetus and its human companion (a la The Shape Of Water), a puzzle game about covering up your nudie bits, and more!

Ben and Trev welcome Callan Davison of the Game Train Podcast to the Bit Cave to play some Click Pitch. Game ideas include living batteries that thrive on love, a zookeeper gets a taste of his own medicine and a PUBG styled murder mystery game on a Star Trek starship.

Ben and Trevor do a post mortem of their Global Game Jam experience! Hear about their experiences jamming in Melbourne, the brainstorming and development process, then play their final game!

In their third and final Global Game Jam themed episode, Ben and Trevor take the theme "The Sound of a Beating Heart" and apply it to all their Click Pitch rounds this week! It results in a blood sucking rhythm game, a toe trimming simulator, a superhero ant, a game where you dispose of bodies for the mafia, a teenager finding their way to the underworld, and more!

In the second of their Global Game Jam themed episodes, Ben and Trevor take the theme 'What Do We Do Now' and use it in every Click Pitch this week! The result is a VR experience of vacuuming up Grandma's ashes, a dung beetle pushing a dung ball around a crowded city and the worst game of "Basketball" ever envisioned.

In the first of their Global Game Jam themed episodes, Ben and Trevor take the theme 'Deception' and use it in every Click Pitch this week! The result is a squirrel trying to steal nuts in a metroidvania set in a zoo, a reporter trying to infiltrate a secret society in the lead up to World War 2, the follow up to Rockstar's Bully finally being released 70 years late, and we design the latest version of the Fit Bit!

Trevor welcomed Ben to his humble abode and they recorded a live episode. They played some Click Pitch and things got a little weird, with games including themes such as Batman's new arch enemy, a prison breakout, a Star Trek / Mass Effect crossover and shaking down criminals to find the drug kingpin.

Disclaimer: The audio in this episode is not up to our usual quality, there are approximately 8 minutes of distorted audio within 4 distinct sections. With any luck this won't occur again.

Ben and Trevor are starting the New Year with a jam-packed episode, including a Goonies sequel featuring the children of the original cast, how to make whiskey using time travel, what the seniors at Hogwarts get up to when nobody is watching, henchman that know they're in a video game, a horror movie management game, and more!

In an extra special mid-week episode, Ben and Trevor create their Game Of The Year based on pitches from their audience. Which one will win? An interstellar twist on a classic pub game? Teen monsters pulling pranks? A game that has a Doctor Who back story for no reason? The heart wrenching story of a criminal confessing to his mother? Or the sequel to one of our previous games, mashed up with a classic 80s flick? Listen to find out!
