This week's game idea theme is cookies and in that spirit Isaac brings us the aptly named Cookie Shooter! It's a first person shooter... with a cookie theme. Yup. Claire's game is a Battletech-inspired Gingerbread man game! Then we discuss savescumming and building it into games.
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!
