Cette semaine, un jeu nous a lancé sur un grand sujet de discussion dont on entend peu parler: trouver des modèles positifs dans les médias et les jeux, surtout au sujet des relations amoureuses. En d'autres mots, qu'est-ce qui se passe dans les mois qui suivent n'importe quelle comédie romantique? De quoi on a parlé: ... Continuer la lecture

Under sommarledigheten lyser de stora spelsläppen med sin frånvaro, så Speccat-panelen passar på att gräva ned sig i mindre spel och fynda på Steams sommarrea. Vi börjar med att prata om avtäckandet av den hett efterlängtade SNES Classic Mini och går igenom spelen som ingår och spelen vi saknar. Därefter går vi vidare till att prata om vad vi spelat sedan sist. Elisabeth saknar Undertale, och för att lindra den värsta saknaden har hon testat indiespelet OneShot som på många sätt påminner om Toby Fox succéspel. Niklas minns tiden då man spelade textbaserade äventyrsspel, och får smaka på nostalgin i det lilla skräckspelet Stories Untold. Vi tar oss också en första titt på Star Trek Bridge Crew till VR. Avsnittet avrundas med en lista där vi tipsar om riktigt bra erbjudanden på Steamrean som kanske kan hjälpa några lyssnare med valet av sommarspel. Mycket nöje! Spel som avhandlas: PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, Friday the 13th, Star Fox 2, OneShot, Stories Untold, Thumper, Star Trek Bridge Crew, To The Moon, A Bird’s Tale, Orwell, Detention, Always Sometimes Monsters, Far Cry, Limbo, Hotline Miami, Transistor, Cities Skylines, Tales from the Borderlands

Äntligen en normal vecka! Vi slår oss ner i en liten, nästan oventilerad studio för att snacka en massa spel och kanske lite TV-serier. De goda nyheterna - eller dåliga, beroende på tycke och smak - är att Mats äntligen lyckats slita sig från tunnelbanejobbet och vara med. Förutom honom ingår Malin, Jonas och Niklas i veckans snacksaliga nördpanel. Vi börjar lite lätt med vad Jonas hävdar är årets bästa TV-serie, redan i september: Stranger Things. Vi har länge väntat på att alla skulle kunna vara med och snacka om denna 80-talsjuvel, men nu kunde vi inte hålla oss längre. Därefter går vi via ett mail osökt in på den maffiga spelbiten. Mats har spelat Farm Expert 2017, och kan inte låta bli att även hålla en liten (eller stor) utläggning om hur detta är bondespelens år, då inte mindre än fem (!) farmarsimulatorer har releasedatum 2016, om än av varierande kvalité. Lite RimWorld har han också spelat, och beskriver lyriskt de äventyr hans kolonister varit med om, medan Malin längtansfullt blickar mot sitt Steam-konto och funderar på om det är värt det. Malin har spelat en tidig version av berg-och-dalbanespelet Planet Coaster. Nej, det handlar inte om rutschkanor! Hon har även hunnit med lite Always Sometimes Monsters, som visar sig vara något helt annat än det J-RPG det ser ut att vara på skärmbilderna. Avslutningsvis har både Mats och Malin spelat det episka samla-pluppar-på-kartan-spelet No Man's Sky, och berättar vad de tycker om både själva spelet och kanske ännu mer om kontroversersen som omgett det sedan den skakiga releasen. Tack & förlåt. Puss hej!

As we enter a new theme month, we're talking about translation. That's translating languages and translating mediums.  Colin Williamson joined us from Seattle to discuss the process of localization. Colin used to work for Square Enix as a localization expert back in the mid-2000s, and helped retranslate some of the oldest Final Fantasy games, even going back and correcting the work of industry legend, Ted Woolsey. Download Here. Subscribe on iTunes. Subscribe on Stitcher. Woolsey's work was flawed, though not for a lack of style. He did the translations largely on his own, couldn't communicate often with the design team, and had crazy deadlines to finish them. Colin meanwhile worked in a team, not too far from where the actual designers worked, and he started the translations while the game was still under development. Those circumstances also helped him codify all the language currently used in Final Fantasy games, like "Phoenix Down" over "Phoenix Feather." A lot has changed since Woolsey worked for Square, and Colin tells us all about it, starting 21:30. **Want to learn more about the history of Final Fantasy? Check out our 1, 2, 3 part history specials. ** Colin also gave us a couple games that are particularly great examples of localizations. For our own list, take a look at our primer.  On May 8 and 10 we visited the Bento Miso for Comics vs Games and the Bit Bazaar to talk 3D, VR, books and board games. Comics vs Games is a yearly event in Toronto where comic artists team up with game designers to create a video game. This year, the theme was 3D, leading to the virtual reality games Altar and Libraria. Altar, created by designer Daniele Hopkins and artist Gillian Blekkenhorst, allows you to briefly walk around the ruins of an alien civilization. While designer Kyle Dwyer and artist Adam Hines teamed up for the pop-up book adventure game, Libraria.  (All photos from Attract Mode's 3D gallery. Clay models were all done by Ventla are long forgotten Nintendo characters that we can't name. The two prints are meant to be 3D with red/blue glasses. If you have 'em, try 'em.) Each round of Comics vs Games is accompanied by a gallery curated by the fellows at Attract Mode, a video game art collective. This year they held a 3D gallery containing a selection of three dimensional 2D art, presented with old school red and blue glasses. We talked to Matt Hawkins, a long time member of Attract Mode about why they collect video game fanart, and some of beautiful renditions of Dark Souls and Year Walk, amongst numerous other games. You can hear from him, Gillian and Kyle starting 35:00. Then at the Bit Bazaar we checked in with Conor McCreery and Elizabeth Simins on the other ways one can turn a book into a game, or vice versa. Welcome to the Bit Bazaar at the Bento Miso on May 10. Mare Shepard shows off N++ right next to the entrance. Emily Carroll and Damian Sommer talk about their development process on the Yawhg, one of the first Comics vs Games projects. Vagabond Dog's Jake Reardon shows off Always Sometimes Monsters at his booth at the Bit Bazaar Some wares, images, zines, and postcards for sale at the Bit Bazaar. A volunteer from Snakes and Lattes shows off a version of the Machine of Death card game, based on Ryan North's anthology book of the same name.  There's not just games for sale at the Bit Bazaar. You can get rare chocolates, cider, and sometimes pies on the top floor of the Bento Miso. Conor McCreery was at the Bit Bazaar, a sort-of independent video game flee market, to show off the new prototype of the upcoming Kill Shakespeare board game. Conor is one of the creators of Kill Shakespeare, a comic where all of Shakespeare's works exist in the same universe. Imagine the Marvel comic book universe, but for Hamlet and Othello. With those sorts of mashups already on the table, their publisher,IDW, invited them to turn the three-volume comic into a board game. Conor tells us about how the game works, how they got involved, and why a Kickstarter does more than raise thousands of dollars. You can hear all about it, starting 51:30. The prototype version of the Kill Shakespeare board game at the Bit Bazaar.  Meanwhile, Elizabeth Simins talked about the power of video game zines at one of the panels at the Bit Bazaar. Elizabeth, an artist who occasionally does a comic for Kotaku with journalist Cara Ellison, told us about zine's appeal and their utility. For those who don't know, a zine is like a small handcrafted magazine made by only a few people. Elizabeth loves their physicality and so do the people who buy them from her, although she admits she probably won't get rich off a zine. Still, they enable her to discuss things like misogyny in games, like in "Ain't No Such Thing as Misogyny." If you'd like to hear more about video games zines, and a few of Simins projects, take a listen at 51:30. Elizabeth Simins's video game zine that collects her artwork and comics regarding misogyny in games. Courtesy Elizabeth Simins. We used music from the Free Music Archive and Soundcloud*. From the Free Music Archive, "japanese prog" by Rushus, "Sun Bum" by Monster Rally and "Touching" by Souvenir Driver.
