Isaac's game idea this week puts you in control of as many decisions as you want to be! You decide the outcome of any - or EVERY - event, no matter how small or how large! A global war? Decide who wins. A mouse looking for snacks? See if he gets the cheese! It's ALL in your hands!
Claire's game idea is a text-based adventure game about skipping rocks. Can you solve her DEVIOUS and ~ESOTERIC~ puzzles... with your words!?!
We soooort of open the topic about Toys vs Games, informally. You know, totally casual, chill. We have a little side convo during Isaac's pitch. We don't make it a whole segment but like, it's there. (Isaac calls The Sims a Roguelike during this conversation. You have been warned.)
This is Make That Game, the podcast where we talk about the latest and greatest new video games... that aren't ever going to get made. We pitch 'em, you make 'em (if you want, nobody's forcing you I guess). Then we break down games we've played by game design elements we liked or didn't like so much. If you're looking for a video game design focused podcast, we might have just the one for you!
And of course, as always, we have the rapid fire round, where we generate 3 random words and come up with a game idea and design incorporating them! Needless to say, it's a riot!
