    Limited Thinking

    In this episode, Volcano Bakemeat Radio look at the games that used their limited resources to think outside the box, (and the games that maybe should have have had a few more limits). We also try to imagine how you could make a character-focused RPG with one voice actor and decry a major missed opportunity … Continue reading Limited Thinking

    Bonus: Sequels and Limits

    A cool and interesting clip that didn't quite make it into the show, but is still worth listening to. And inspired a future episode. Note: This clip hasn't gone through audio edits, so this is basically the raw sound from the mic to your ears, so be ready for any pain that might cause.

    VB Appetizer: Voice Acting in Video Games

    In this Appetizer mini-episode, Connor, Grant, and Paige are joined by Neil Phelps -- an independent filmmaker and actor -- to discuss the ins and outs of voice acting in video games. What makes for good voice acting, what voice acting has done for the industry, how voice acting can change a game, and examples of some games that got voice acting right/wrong all come into the conversation during this mini-episode.

    Shooting Zombies to Destress: The Healing Power of Games

    We explore the benefits games can have in day to day life, what actual literal therapeutic benefits they might have, and why Left 4 Dead can be an essential part of working retail. NOTE: We swear pretty freely on the podcast, but in this episode, Jessica uses a word for genitalia that some people see as more offensive. Be aware that that's in there.

    VB Appetizer: Fast Casual Gaming

    In our first appetizer mini-episode, Volcano Bakemeat's crew discuss casual gaming.

    Are You Sure We Played The Same Game?

    The topic of choice in video games is absolutely huge, so in this episode we (attempt) to limit our discussion to one aspect: Even having a choice in the first place. We debate the pros and cons of letting a player choose anything and then ask the pretentious existential question if you can actually choose anything in the first place (...in video games).
