In this episode, we discuss game engines, publishing platforms, and predicting success. While metrics and statistics have their place, a game’s potential can’t be distilled into numbers alone. There’s no accounting for chaos. Sometimes, the magic lies in simply crafting a game you love and trusting that the fun will follow.

Engaging in discussion with thoughtful people who hold different views can expand your perspective and deepen your understanding of the world. But make sure the diversity of opinion you’re embracing isn’t just blatantly false or terrible. We’re talking pineapple on pizza here, not basic human rights.

[Ep465] Meeting of Minds

In this episode, we discuss AI News, tech demos, and change management. It’s hard to unlearn old habits and adopt new practices. Resistance is natural when you disrupt the comfort of routine and commit to adaptation. It’s a truth universally acknowledged, that change requires challenge, and progress requires change.

[Ep464] Rewiring Habits

This week, we talk about childhood games, the Game Changer, and DIY podcast setups. You don’t need top of the line audio equipment to get a good audio recording. After all, it’s not about the cost of the setup, it’s how you use it. Decent equipment, proper mic placement, and some sound dampening hacks are all you need to charm a listener's ears.

[Ep463]  Crystal Clear

In this episode, we discuss an unexpected earthquake, Crashlands nostalgia, and keyboard accessibility. Making a game accessible to a global audience isn’t just about localizing the text. Like, have you ever thought about keyboard layouts? Correctly mapping the key presses in a game is critical for making sure nothing gets lost in translation.

[Ep462]  Global Keys

This week, we talk about the Crashlands 2 announcement trailer, now in Chinese! Then we discuss web games and security measures. Platform review processes are like door locks. They won’t stop a skilled hacker from breaking in, but can thwart casual intruders. While dealing with these obstacles can be frustrating on the dev side, the presence of these kinds of security measures can reduce the number of potential breaches by deterring low effort attempts.
