On tonight's show, we are joined by Andrew and Tony from Lead Money Games, creators of Lil Tanks, now available on Steam. We talk about the process of creating this first game from the studio, as well as get a first look to what will be coming to future patches in the game. Our developers stick with us to talk about the week's gaming news, including a surprising decision from Nintendo to pull the extremely successful Classic NES system. Was it pulled in preperation for a new model, one that might try to stay one step ahead of hackers? We discuss with our live listeners.
