Customer Reviews
Focused and practical information. Glad to find this resource.
What a great podcast to add to my rotation. Patrick keeps it short and focused with questions aimed at practical steps and resources. Just what I like. Helpful information from relatable people in the community.
A valuable resource
A lot of indie designers go through similar issues but have unique approaches to solve them. It’s so much fun to listen to everyone’s stories of the process. Patrick really captures the voices that no one else does.
I liked this podcast so much I asked to be a guest!
Patrick has done a really good job of finding and interviewing people that are relatively unknown. While other podcasts sometimes start to feel repetitive because you hear from the same big names, this podcast offers a unique POV that other aspiring game designers can connect to more easily.
