Welcome to episode 51 of Shack Together! We're joined by special guest Sam Chandler to discuss his in-depth (and belated - our fault, not his) review of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 and share insights on the latest S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 update. In addition, TJ Denzer (not present) has published their review of Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, which we touch on during today's episode as well. Our main segment today introduces "NOW! That's What I Call Trivia: Volume Gaming," a game that tests the crew's knowledge on everything from Marvel Rivals to Annapurna Interactive's catalogue of releases. In Story Time, we cover significant industry developments, including NetEase Games' Marvel Rivals layoffs despite the game's enormous popularity, GameStop's sale of its Canadian and French operations, and Pacific Drive reaching 1 million units sold. We also discuss the newly announced Annapurna Interactive Showcase 2025 and share impressions of the Delta Force: Black Hawk Down campaign. And that's all for today's show!

Sections played: Mostly through Shamazaar Issues covered: revisiting Defeating Games for Charity, the work behind the event, launch of VGHF library, accepting the voxels, possible benefits of voxels, how to represent transfer, back to metaballs, generating noise in the voxels, collision and voxels, looking unlike other games of the time, leaving out polygons for the voxels to show through, avoiding the enemies vs blasting, apparent resource scarcity, weak stealth, projectile-based shooting, combat and missing all the time, enjoying dodging but hating missing, abstraction in games, enemies dropping guns that disappear, voice work, stand-out characters, having fun with the NPCs, not being too self-serious, investigating the twon-ha, the different aesthetics of European games, a flexible mount, stumbling on the quest log, skipping ahead in the knowledge tree, seeing games in the same family, a milieu or scene, what were the game inputs that got you to this game, coming at ideas from different directions, German dubbing, the voice of Pey'j, adding legitimization, the music.  Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: BioStats, Mark Garcia, Artimage, Final Fantasy VI, Video Game History Foundation, Phil Salvador, Minecraft, Starfighter, Steve Ash, Spore, System Shock 2, DOOM (1993), CliffyB, Chess, Annals of the Grand Historian, Arnold Schwarzeneggar, Bruce Willis, Halo, Dark Crystal, Beyond Good and Evil, Rayman, Ultima (series), Populous, Peter Molyneux, Sid Meier, Civilization (series), Vitor, Assassin's Creed (series), David Gasman, Star Wars, John Williams, Dark Souls 2, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers.

You know Clifford "CliffyB" Blezinski as the Lead Designer and face of Gears of War and Unreal Tournament. But in his life after Epic Games he has been a CEO, an angel investor, a restauranteur, a Tony-winning broadway investor and producer, a memoirist and now, a comic book author. He is so much more than just the dude weilding the life-sized chainsaw gun. In this incredible interview, Cliff talks with Ethan about Control Freak, his memoir about a life in the games industry, his brand new comic Scrapper and everything in between. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/deconstructoroffun/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/deconstructoroffun/support

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we complete our series on Dwarf Fortress. We tell a couple more stories, get into how this would or would not eat up our lives, and turn to takeaways. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Another 10 hours (Brett) or two hours (Tim) Issues covered: withdrawing from society to create an heirloom, failing your ghosts, feeling the wet walls, watching the water spread around, creating a well by flooding your lower level, getting stuck in the morass vs learning, the continuing sadness of the Very Pouty Bard, the looming tension in other games, the complexity of some of the systems, diving into other menus, finding the mission system, sanding down difficulty edges, running into the system friction, losing is fun, the pleasures of recovery, so many ways of failure and the time to failure, every happy family, the real boss: the happiness scale, getting further away from the paint can, layer of abstraction, play intensity and life mismatching, the strength of the theme, the amount of iteration and being able to see them, driving design and iteration, the profit motive vs archiving, it's okay to be unforgiving, the presentation allowing for opacity, procedural generation, generating a lore bible or tome, becoming the go-to example for a mechanic, zeitgeists, dead drunken cats, seeing the chain of events that leads to a bug. Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: Populous, Civ, SimCity, World of Warcraft, Spelunky, Dark Souls, Leo Tolstoy, Ratchet & Clank, BattleCruiser 3K, Firewatch, Colin "The Shots" James Tiberius Tsougas, Kingdom Hearts (series), Super Mario 64, Jumping Flash, Halo, GoldenEye, Kill.Switch, Gears of War, Cliffy B, PlayStation, Daron Stinnett, PacMan, DOOM (1993), Gothic Chocobo, Far Cry 2, Dead Space, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia.  Links: Tarn Adams NoClip Next time: Maybe the mailbag?

In 2021, the global games market generated over $180 billion in revenue-bigger than movies and music combined-and is projected to hit over $200 billion in 2022. Yet despite being a global economic juggernaut and having massive cultural impact, there hasn't been a definitive insider account about the industry. Until now. Enter legendary videogame designer Cliff "CliffyB" Bleszinski and his rollicking, colorful memoir Control Freak.A twenty-five-year veteran of the industry, Cliff shipped his first commercial title, Jazz Jackrabbit, before graduating high school. During his long tenure at Epic Games, he became design director and was a key visionary behind the bestselling franchises Unreal and Gears of War and lent his expertise to the global obsession Fortnite.As Cliff writes, "no one is weirder than a nerd with money." In Control Freak, we follow his life from the 80s as a shy, awkward acne-riddled teen bullied by classmates and coping with the sudden loss of his father to a flamboyant personality in the gamer world who flourishes and connects with his flock of fellow nerds. His career takes off with massive hits and catapults him to a life as a hot rod-driving celebrity rubbing shoulders with Bill Gates and appearing on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.Control Freak pops the hood on the gaming industry and shines a light inside. Cliff shares what it's like to design a game: the late nights chugging Mountain Dew and shooting the sh*t with coworkers, the epiphanies so exhilarating he has to run into someone's office to say it out loud, the rapid-fire problem-solving when something goes wrong (and something always goes wrong), the strain those long hours and the pressure takes on individuals and relationships, the pitfalls of an industry riddled with sexism, cyberbullying, and a lack of representation among both designers and the characters they create, and yet the incredible highs of launching a new game on stage to an audience of thousands and watching it become a phenomenon.

Heute wird nicht gekleckert, sondern geklotzt: Patrick vom Schön war's-Podcast und ich packen die Lancer aus, schnetzeln uns durch die Gears of War-Reihe und spekulieren über den Film und die Animationsserie, die anlässlich des 16. Geburtstags angekündigt wurden. Was die Spiele und das Phänomen für uns ausmacht und weshalb es uns mal an Boba Fett, mal an die Masters of the Universe erinnert, erfahrt ihr in dieser Folge. Viele Spaß damit und bleibt gesund!

The Creator of Gears of War & Unreal Cliff "Cliffy B" Bleszinski stops by to talk about his new memoir "Control Freak". It's a no holds barred account about his entire life starting as a a Nintendo Champion, Game Maker, but also an awkward nerd, who lost his Dad, and even got molested. Actor Zach McGowan from Starz "Black Sails" The 100 on the CW, and countless other film and tv credits, joins the show to talk about his new movie "Sanctioning Evil". We talk about his experience making the film, but other films with Danny Glover and the underrated flick "Dracula Untold".Skungy's Pick of the Week is "Gotham Knights" which was sold as a sequel to the Arkham series, but is no such thing. Add on the fact that the combat system stinks and the price tag is too high, you have a flop.In Top Nerd News, we cover the strange love affair the world seems to have for James Cameron'd "Avatar" series. The sequel is due out soon, and there is already a plan for what they'll do if it's a box office flop. Later we check out the new trailer for "A Christmas Story 2" which is technically the 3rd movie because of the straight to video "A Christmas Story 2 : The Official Sequel". Finally we make some wild guesses as to what Black Panther 2 aka "Wakanda Forever" will be about, and how well Namor and the New Black Panther is received.All that and more on The Week in Geek with D Squared.

Inside the creation and physical play of the gaming world...

Cliff "CliffyB" Bleszinski, the lead designer on the "Gears of War" video games, talks with Gavin Purcell about his years in the gaming industry, how he discovered a passion for the theater in high school, and his main obsession outside of games: Broadway. This passion led him to become a co-producer of the hit show Hadestown, which won eight Tony Awards in 2019. Then, Cliff and Gavin are joined by theater producer Hunter Arnold, whose credits include Hadestown, Kinky Boots, and Dear Evan Hansen. Hunter talks about how he decides what to produce, why he never knows if a play is going to be a hit, and a game he plays with a fellow producer: Describe the plot of a hit musical with the worst elevator pitch ever.
