This week's game idea pitch theme is Heat! Claire's idea is about committing crimes and dealing with that heat, and Isaac gives us an idea for a multi-player shooter with heat-based vision! Then Isaac rants about World of Warcraft and the various ways it has caught gamers in its grip for so many years!
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. To close out the show 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!
If you're looking for a video game design focused podcast, we might have just the one for you!
