  • Martin Scorsese Callout Post | GHG Show

    Please consider supporting us on Patreon: http://patreon.com/glasshousemedia

    “If it can happen to Tractors, it can happen to Video Games” - Astrid.

    Martin Scorsese keeps saying incredibly true stuff about culture and gets no respect for it. Alex CG (they/them) and Astrid (they/them) join Samantha (she/her) to talk about how "the algorithm" isn't a neutral good, the economics of game subscriptions and how you should take advantage of a good deal, but not pretend that businesses are your friends.

  • The most Dudes Rock game in existence | Yakuza: Like A Dragon Reflections

    This video is available in a longer format over on our Patreon: http://patreon.com/glasshousemedia   

    “SKRRT!" - Mat  


    Alex P (he/him) and Alex CG (they/them) join Mat J to talk about dudes, guys and the grey area in public acceptability which doesn't evaporate just because you'd like to pretend it isn't there. Ryo Ga Gotoku's Yakuza: Like A Dragon (2020) is a game about when the wrong people care about each other and the right people want to ignore them entirely. Spoilers: We really like it.

  • Why do so many videogame stories suck? ft. Cara Ellison | GHG Show

    Please consider supporting us on Patreon: http://patreon.com/glasshousemedia


    “I'll make it pro bueno” - Mat 

    Cara Ellison is a writer and narrative designer for AAA and Indie development, joining Alex CG (they/them), Shay T (she/her) and Mat J to explain how games have narrative even if they don't have a script, why game stories can feel like they're missing whole chunks and why sometimes bad writing is just bad design.

  • What happened to Local Multiplayer? | GHG Show

    Please consider supporting us on Patreon: http://patreon.com/glasshousemedia


    “Bill’s too busy having bad opinions about Climate Change” - Samantha

    I mean, obviously we understand that there's not really a demand for Local Multiplayer at the minute. You're very clever for noticing. Astrid (they/them), Alex CG (they/them) and Alex P (he/him) join Samantha (she/her) to talk about the downward trend of games having split-screen available which started LONG before... all of this.

    “I'm reflecting here!" - Astrid  

    Alex P (he/him), Astrid (they/them) and Shay T (she/her) join Mat J to talk about the end-cap of the World of Assassination series, while making a lot of strained allusions to Professional Wrestling.

  • Showing AAA games how to do representation ft. Crispy Creative | GHG Show

    Please consider supporting us on Patreon: http://patreon.com/glasshousemedia

    "You are not actually the general... because... ” - Astrid 

    Crispy Creative are an Indie Team who specialise in UX/UI design for other companies. They're hoping to fund queer sci-fi game A Long Journey To An Uncertain End through Kickstarter pledges. Astrid (they/them), Alex CG (they/them) and Samantha (she/her) are joined on this episode by Kylan Coats (he/him) and Rowan Williams (they/them) to talk about representation in other games, along with how studios can be a little nicer and still get things done. 

    There's a little bit of audio trouble during the record, so this might not be our best sounding. Hopefully you'll forgive this (we've fixed the issue so it shouldn't impact any of our future content).

    Please consider supporting us on Patreon: http://patreon.com/glasshousemedia

    “I've never been hornier for a game I haven't played before.” – Astrid.

    The whole crew is here to run through all the games that mattered to us from 2020, but not only that! We're stacking them all up on the board against last year's rankings. This is our longest video yet and recording took place over two separate days. It's our Apocalypse Now.

  • How does an Indie developer get a publisher? ft. Cel Davison | GHG Show

    Please consider supporting us on Patreon: http://patreon.com/glasshousemedia 

    “Video Games!” - Alex P 

    Cel Davison is one half of humblegrove, whose upcoming game No Longer Home is set for release in 2021, published by Fellow Traveller. Alex P and Mat J talk to them about securing that relationship and the benefits it provides, how to demystify the process and how to know when to push back. We also talk a little about the game and the (hostile) environment surrounding it's creation.
