    Ep. 191: Jelly People & Animal Onesies! We Make A Game!

    This week we are returning to one of our favorite pass times, we make a game! For this one instead of looking for a genre or a mechanic we are using ChatGPT to find crazy video game titles and try to figure out what that game may be like. This one gets a little weird but we might have found our greatest games yet! From potion crafting, to American Gladiator Jelly Edition, to animal onesies there is a lot to unpack in this weeks episode!

    Ep. 190: Voice Controlled Games! Oh The Frustrations!

    Ep. 190: Voice Controlled Games! Oh The Frustrations!

    Voice control has become a common place item in our day to day lives. With things like Alexa and Siri we are using our voice to turn on lights, search the internet, send messages and find out what song that just was. But when it comes to games voice controls have always been tricky if not just down right broken. But thats not without trying. For a small while there voice controlled games were coming out and testing the boundaries of this technology. But it was quickly realized that this may not really have a place in the world of games. From Hey You Pikachu's complete disregard to what you are saying to the existential ramblings of Seaman it just always felt out of place. So, lets dive into this bizarre mechanic that leaves gamers screaming (even more than usual).

    Ep.189: Cultural Representation In Games!

    Ep.189: Cultural Representation In Games!

    For years we only had a few viewpoints in the world of gaming when it came to story telling. Year after year we were shown the same viewpoint of WWII through ever evolving graphics. But now we are starting to get new story tellers in games and are finally able to see the world through different lenses. Game like T'challa are giving us a slice of life from New Caledonia, or Saviorless showing us the struggles of game development in Cuba. Or now Tales of Kenzera: ZAU is introducing us to rich lore and heart gripping stories from Abubakar Salim's Kenyan heritage. It is amazing to see these classic genres through different viewpoints.

    Ep. 187: Baulder's Gate 3, Saviorless, Eiyuden Chronicles: It's An Update Episode!

    It's an update episode. There some big titles here and some that are changing the culture of gaming all together. But it's been a nice little break from the huge titles coming out this year so we were able to play some catch up too. Chris backed Eiyuden Chronicles and finally got his hands on it. Christian chats about the cultural significance of Saviorless, a game from the first indie studio in Cuba. And Chris is finally catching up on Baulder's Gate 3!

    Ep. 186: Are Games Loosing Their Fun?

    Ep. 186: Are Games Loosing Their Fun?

    There is a common thread that we have brought up many times. Games are changing and forever evolving. But there is something that remains a constant, and that is we want our games to be fun. Although the level of fun in games seems to be dropping with our new larger games. There is something to be said about simple games that it is easier to see the fun in them. Games were made to be shared and enjoyed with friends in groups like at arcades or in schools. Now that games have become an individual experience, has the fun gone with them?
