Listen to the premier episode of Byte's brand new podcast focusing on the topics of Game Design and Game Studies. On this first installment, the How It's Played team takes a well-researched look into the current state of Survival Horror games and how the concept of fear is truly subjective.

How has horror changed since the Golden Age with Resident Evil? How has the rise of indie games affected game development? Is the future of horror games in VR? In YouTube revenue?

We discuss all this, our favorite games, design the ultimate horror experience, and more on Byte's most academic podcast yet: How It's Played.
