Welcome to Loading Screen.

A seasonal series where Tristan Jung and Raza Retiwala explore the various fields of video games.

In Season One, we will be deep-diving into different types of video game genres to help our listeners understand why are these genres important, why people find them fascinating, and some of the history and main games within them.

We will be releasing 8 episodes, 4 of which will be research episodes where we do a deep dive into a genre, and the other 4, which will be interviews with studios that have developed games within these genres.
