Podcasts about aliens currently run

Welcome back to Indieventure EXTRA, our bonus series where we interview key members of the games industry. In this episode, Liam was joined by Xalavier Nelson Jr., the creative director at Strange Scaffold, an indie studio responsible for hits like El Paso, Elsewhere, Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator and An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs. Joining the industry as a journalist at age 12, this BAFTA-nominated creator has worked on over 100 games over the last eight years. Xalavier spoke to us about scope, sustainability and the power of intent. You can find Xalavier on Twitter as well as TikTok, or you can find out more about his work over at the Strange Scaffold website. Enjoy! Our music was written and performed by Ollie Newbury! Find him on Instagram at @newbsmusic. Meanwhile, you can find us at indieventurepodcast.co.uk or wherever you listen to podcasts.

We are in for a treat in this episode of The Corner of Story and Game as we are graced by TWO brilliant writers/designers! Xalavier Nelson Jr. and Winter Mullenix stop by to explore the vital topic of inclusion and diversity as it applies to the craft of storytelling. It is a topic that I have wanted to create some space to explore for quite awhile now, and I am extremely honoured that these two masters of their craft were gracious enough to share their thoughts and experiences with me. With dozens of games under his belt, Xalavier is renowned for titles like "Hypnospace Outlaw,” “Stranger Things VR,” and "An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs." Winter is an experienced writer and narrative designer with a whole swath of credentials, including over four years as Senior Narrative Designer at Cryptic Studios, working on the Neverwinter MMO.

Střílení upírů v mexickém motelu, přenášení celých světů v kouli a nečekané návraty do Night City. To jsou hlavní témata nového Lootboxu. Letošní podzim je extrémně bohatý na velké hry, ale i menší, pro někoho nečekané, hity - a právě dva takové si dneska probereme a jako bonus si řekneme jestli už je Cyberpunk konečně dobrá hra!

When Xalavier Nelson Jr. made his first game, he meant for it to be his farewell to the industry after years as a young, enthusiastic video-game journalist. Instead, he caught the gamedev bug, founded his own studio, and has been on more or less the same path ever since. He's worked on projects like We Are the Caretakers, Hypnospace Outlaw, Skatebird, An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs, Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator, Sunshine Shuffle, and a Stranger Things VR title. His latest, El Paso, Elsewhere, launches Tuesday, September 26th, on Steam and Xbox. Get full access to The Endpoem Podcast at endpoem.substack.com/subscribe

Xalavier Nelson is terrified that his dad won't like his game. Xalavier Nelson Jr. is a game developer and head of Strange Scaffold, the studio responsible for games like Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator, An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs, and the upcoming El Paso, Elsewhere.  Here's some stuff we talked about: Our Feelings If you want to reconnect with your Dad, play Elden Ring The Magic Circle made Xalavier a different person Evil Within 2 made Xalavier feel inquisitive

For this episode, The Gateway will explore how to become part of the video game industry. Reportedly worth nearly 86 billion dollars, video games have become an essential part of our culture. Gone are the days of a pixel bouncing from side to side. Video games are exploring progressive and poignant issues within our society giving space to unique perspectives—while giving the player the opportunity to experience another's life. While video games continue to pursue innovative ideas, they present their philosophy in beautiful artistic visuals. Video games have captured our imagination for decades and this episode will try to understand the process of taking an idea and turning it into a viable video game.To help examine all the elements that make a video game good, The Gateway is proud to welcome Xalavier Nelson Jr.. Nelson Jr. is a BAFTA-nominated studio head, narrative director, and writer, with dozens of titles under his belt including Reigns: Be-yond, Hypnospace Outlaw, An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs, Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator, and El Paso, Else-where. He also is making strides in a burgeoning storytelling career outside of games, with releases such as the cult hit comic Sherlock Holmes Hunts the Moth Man.

In the early 90s, there was this show on ABC called Phenom about a tennis prodigy. If Hollywood were to reboot that for the digital age, Xalavier Nelson Jr. would no doubt be the star of the show. His body of work rivals those of people in the gaming industry for decades!We kicked off our conversation talking about his studio, Strange Scaffold, and he spoke about several of the games he's either worked on or created, including An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs and the popular 90s Internet nostalgia title Hypnospace Outlaw. Xalavier also talked about his newest game, Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator, and he shared how his work as a pre-teen game journalist helped him become a narrative designer. Xalavier's prudent vision for finding better, faster, cheaper and healthier ways to make video games is so important, and I think that if he's making waves like this now, just imagine what he'll do in the future!LinksStrange ScaffoldStrange Scaffold on PatreonStrange Scaffold on YouTubeXalavier Nelson Jr. on TwitterFor extended show notes, including a full transcript of this interview, visit revisionpath.com.==========We're doing a mailbag episode on January 31, so send us your questions about design, tech, or the podcast, and we'll answer them on the show!

Xalavier Nelson Jr. (he/him) is a prolific videogame writer, producer, and internet poster, working on everything from An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs (Strange Scaffold, 2021) to Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator (Strange Scaffold, upcoming). He took some time away from creating every videogame to walk through how he moved from games criticism to development, the challenge and necessity of figuring out what you enjoy creating, and the existential dark comedy of a drunk puppy. You can follow Nelson on Twitter @WritNelson, and find a sample of his games on itch.

Does spiritual development have to be dull? Or can growing with God be more like a game? Our guest today, Xalavier Nelson Junior, is a BAFTA-nominated narrative director and video game developer. He creates video games that communicate spiritual truths in places where they're perhaps least expected. People playing games such as Hypnospace Outlaw or Can Androids Pray, or any number of the many games Xalavier has worked on, find themselves connecting with their shared humanity and examining the big questions of life, even as they solve puzzles in a futuristic universe inhabited by robots. We talk to Xalavier about how games including his latest release: An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs, can connect us to God's truth, and to each other.

Link to Article: https://bit.ly/3iksUKdGame Devs of Color Expo Was SuperbThe Game Devs of Color Expo, an event showcasing the diverse talent in games while providing a platform for creators of color, is officially underway. The 6th annual festival runs from September 23-27 and gives way to a host of happenings, from panels and talks to demos and trailers. There's four days' worth of stuff, so there's a lot to see.Today (September 23) kicked off with a 45-minute Nintendo-style Direct presentation. The showcase ran through a myriad of trailers from independent developers like Strange Scaffold (An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs) and Whitethorn Games (Lake). Not every game shown during the GDoCExpo Direct had a release date, but most are coming to Steam and Xbox. There seems to be something for everyone, with one particular game I'm stoked about being A Shiba Story, a slice-of-life adventure sim developed by Foxdog Farms where you play as a dog sitter for a Shiba Inu.

Un aeroporto per alieni gestito da cani. Se la cosa vi incuriosisce, continuate ad ascoltare.LINKSIl sito del videogioco dove potete anche guardare il trailerhttps://steamcommunity.com/app/1246250/L'articolo del The Guardianhttps://www.theguardian.com/games/2021/jun/02/an-airport-for-aliens-currently-run-by-dogs-review-surrealist-humour-in-ruff-packagingLa pagina dell'autore del giocohttps://xalaviermakeswords.itch.io/Ascolta in italiano e leggi i sottotitoli in ingleseListen in Italian and follow the English subtitleshttps://youtu.be/aYEyHTCZn9UTESTO TRASCRITTO (English text below)Un aeroporto per alieni che al momento viene gestito da cani. Questo è il titolo dell'ultimo videogioco che ha attirato la mia attenzione, tanto che sono andata a cercarmelo, mi son guardata il trailer mi sono letta un articolo uscito sul The Guardian (vi metterò tutta la note di tutti i link nelle note del programma) 'An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs' è un videogioco stranissimo dove nel titolo c'è già tutta la spiegazione. Noi siamo gli unici esseri viventi rimasti vivi nell'universo, noi e la nostra partner, anche lei si trova in uno di questi aeroporti chissà dove nell'universo e noi dobbiamo cercare di incontrarci. Gli aeroporti sono deserti, appunto, ci siamo solo noi, e dappertutto ci sono delle scritte, però sono in una lingua che noi non conosciamo, quindi di volta in volta ci vengono date carte d'imbarco, indicazioni, però in questa lingua sconosciuta che noi dobbiamo cercare di decifrare. Tutto questo negli aeroporti che vengono gestiti dai cani, non sono cani normali, sono dei cani che vanno rappresentati con immagini di repertorio, stock images, le immagini delle banche di immagini. È una cosa buffissima, è una cosa anche molto straniante, perché immaginatevi l'ambientazione in questo aeroporto che, gli aeroporti che non vengono disegnati con precisione fotografica, sapete ultimamente i videogiochi sembrano quasi dei film, ecco non questo, questo si vede proprio che i disegni sono disegni, e le uniche immagini - foto vere - sono quelle dei cani che ci ritroviamo in tutti i modi in tutte le salse. Ci dicono più o meno quello che dobbiamo fare, però si sa, i cani vogliono essere accarezzati, i cani vogliono che noi tiriamo il bastoncino così che possano riportarcelo. È interessante perché io gioco poco ai videogiochi, però mi piace quando trovo dei videogiochi che hanno delle premesse diverse dalla solita sparatoria e conquista del mondo. Questo videogioco dà proprio lo spunto per riflettere su, non dico su chi siamo, però sulle cose che noi facciamo, sugli spazi nei quali ci muoviamo. Si tratta di un piccolo gioco indipendente, quindi non è di quelli che vanno dalle grandi case di produzione, quindi sicuramente ci ha lavorato un piccolo team, anche se l'autore del gioco è un autore molto conosciuto tra chi si aggira tra i video games, Xalavier Nelson Jr., ha fatto dei videogiochi molto interessanti. No volevo solo condividere con voi questa chicchettina. Non so se lo acquisterò, ripeto perché gioco poco ai videogiochi, però mi piace leggere di videogiochi. Sicuramente è una cosa che mi è balzata agli occhi e che mi ha incuriosito. Che dire terminò con un wof wof.ENGLISH TRANSLATIONAn airport for aliens that is currently run by dogs. This is the title of the last video game that caught my attention, so much so that I went to look for it, I looked at the trailer I read an article published in The Guardian (I will put all the notes of all the links in the program notes ) 'An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs' is a very strange video game where in the title there is already all the explanation. We are the only living beings left alive in the universe, we and our partner, she too is in one of these airports who knows where in the universe and we must try to meet. The airports are deserted, in fact, there is only us, and everywhere there are writings, but they are in a language that we do not know, so from time to time we are given boarding passes, directions, but in this unknown language that we must try to decipher. All this inside airports that are managed by dogs, they are not normal dogs, they are dogs that must be represented with archive images, stock images, images from image banks. It is a very funny thing, it is also a very alienating thing, because imagine the setting in this airport, an airport not drawn with photographic precision, you know lately, video games almost look like movies, well, not this one, this is clearly seen that the drawings are drawings, and the only images (real photos) are those of the dogs that we find in all ways in all shapes and form. They tell us more or less what to do, but you know, dogs want to be stroked, dogs want us to throw the stick so they can fetch. It's interesting because I hardly play video games, but I like it when I find video games that have different premises than the usual shooting and world conquest. This video game gives us the opportunity to reflect on, I'm not saying reflect on who we are, but reflect about the things we do, about the spaces in which we move. It is a small independent game, so it is not one of those that go to the big production houses, so surely a small team worked on it, even though the author of the game is a very well known author among those who know about video games: Xalavier Nelson Jr. has made some very interesting video games. That's it, I just wanted to share this little gem with you. I don't know if I'll buy it, I repeat because I don't play video games, but I like to read about video games. Surely it is something that jumped to my eyes and that intrigued me. What can I say more? I'll end with woof woof.

With reveals and announcements coming at us from all angles, it’s time to try and digest everything in our weekly podcast. Attempting to do so are Gareth, James and Paul, who also have a number of games already out in the wild to share their opinions on. Get ready for TheXboxHub Official Podcast Episode 82 to feature Horizon Forbidden West, Far Cry 6, Rust, An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs, Long Ago: A Puzzle Tale, and more. There’s even talk about a couple of the latest films to hit streaming services. So, you won’t want to miss it. While having a catch up, the opening segment goes from the Europa League final to reminiscing about comedy TV series that hold up well today. Despite having busy weeks, two thirds of the team have seen Army of the Dead on Netflix, while Amazon Prime had an interesting offering in the form of Palm Springs. Talk then turns to what they’ve been playing in the past seven days, which unearths a real variety of games. Expect to learn more regarding the brutal world of survival experience Rust, the ball rolling conundrums of Long Ago: A Puzzle Tale, the bizarre yet absorbing nature of An Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs, and the nostalgic Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection. Someone also went old school with Skyrim and wonders how good it plays nowadays. And finally, the trio focus on the exciting gameplay unveilings that have arisen recently, starting with the gorgeous journey into Horizon Forbidden West. There's also new footage to discuss from the next instalment of The Dark Pictures Anthology, titled House of Ashes. Then they move onto another highly anticipated sequel, Dying Light 2: Stay Human, which certainly provided great insight into the parkour zombie action. Last, but least, is Far Cry 6 and its incredible DIY weapons - as well as an unforgettable animal companion. Feel free to comment on anything discussed in TheXboxHub Official Podcast Episode 82 or ask any questions for us to answer in future episodes! As always, full show notes are available over at https://www.thexboxhub.com/podcast

On this week's episode, Marc tries to get things back on track after a rocky episode last week and they mostly succeed, starting things off with some Attack the Backlog and streaming updates, along with a smidgen of Sonic and Horizon Forbidden West news. After that, they get on to what they've been playing with a furry game, a doggy game, a robo game, and more. Anyway, something-something, I know it sounds like I don't like it, but, yeah, I guess I kind of don't like it, cheers and enjoy the anime-zing(ly but I still kind of like it) show.

This week we discuss RE:8 with as few spoilers as possible and why it was only “okay”. How Mass Effect holds up with the new Legendary Edition and Mike's absolute love for the Mako. Some upcoming games and news including the Normandy in No Man's Sky and finally we touch on a new topic with crossgen releases.

Want to hear something surprising, unusual, or downright weird? This week's show has all three of those covered. Jamie Katz – Licensed Pet Detective When a beloved dog goes missing, we tend to panic. We assume the worst: dognapping! We tend to not think clearly about how to best begin a search. That's where a licensed Private Investigator can be of help. Jamie Katz is just such a professional ... who exclusively works to get pets back home. This real-life, bonafide Pet Detective offers tips and insights. And you won't want to miss the story about her latest super-success story.  Stray – A New Documentary Filmmaker Elizabeth Lo takes us to the streets of Istanbul in her new documentary Stray. It's illegal to capture and hold or kill stray dogs in the Turkish capital … which may make them the city's most interesting denizens. Filmed at dog level, Lo takes us on a long walk with the dogs. We play in parks, march in protests, visit a couple “dog restaurants, and listen in on everyday conversations. Lo crafts a poignant, wordless portrait of a way of life where dogs and humans interconnect by the multitude … to explore the inherent value of all beings. The Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs When virtual reality changes your reality, you know you're truly in the matrix. Indie Game Developer and Award-Winning Narrative Director, Xalavier Nelson Jr., once identified as a cat person … but became a dog person by creating a video game that deals in absurdity. The Airport for Aliens Currently Run by Dogs asks the question “what happens if you and your loved one are the only humans left … and you are separated by galaxies … and what if dogs are the ones running the alien airport you must use to reunite?” Using unabashedly joyful stock photo dogs in his game ended up changing his view on the species. Now he now has a real-life dog – something that wouldn't have happened without the game. About Jamie Katz Licensed Private Investigator Jamie Katz is the best in the biz when it comes to reuniting lost pets with their loved ones. Katz has traveled across the country at a moment's notice and successfully found missing animals in rural towns as well as in big cities.
