114: New Game+: Pumpkin Pie Production L...

Claire and Isaac
About this episode

What's old is new again with our first "New Game+" episode! It's technically a re-run, sure, but! You probably haven't listened to it! We have stats that say so!


Isaac pitches "Duck Ponder" a location defense game, presumably about ducks and ponds. Claire's idea is "Cat Cafe Princess Warrior", a She-Ra meets Link's Awakening, meets a cat cafe game!


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!
