Podcasts about downwell

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we start a new game in our series on independent games with 2004's Cave Story. We briefly set the game in its time, talk a little about its developer, and then talk about the game proper. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: A couple of hours Issues covered: freeware vs democratized indie dev and publishing, Japanese independent development, an indie darling, likely antecedents, 2004 in review, the end of a cycle, standing out in a stacked year, sticking it out, breaking through onto Nintendo platforms, early independent success on the Switch platform, influences and what's in the mix, weapon leveling, more story than expected, characters and dialog, more adventure, having a mess of villagers, setting up mysteries, merging lots of elements into their story and interactions, a spike at the end, adding puzzle-y elements, keys and keys that are not keys, threads of characters and relationships, something that is more than a MetroidVania, a skill-based game, "you're a really good person," forgetting a console came out, having the opportunity to play off-the-beaten path games, not needing a map, the dangers of categorization, how the platforming feels, fear of skill-based need, becoming one with the controller, an emotional response, empathetic response, catharsis, building the dam and breaking it, graceful building, manipulation in art, can a movie version work vs the interactivity, shock in literary fiction.

Estamos teniendo un inicio de temporada algo atípico, pero también lleno de sorpresas. Y si bien hoy os ofrecemos otro programa con tan solo dos de nuestros integrantes (sorpresa hasta que lo escuchéis. Ivoox ya hace demasiados spoilers), lo cierto es que esta vez sí volvemos a los monográficos retro habituales. Y lo hacemos de un modo que nos permite unir pasado, presente y futuro, pero dándole más importancia al pasado que a todo lo actual (con sorpresas). El tema elegido, como ya os ha chivado Ivoox, es el del legado retro en los indies. ¿Son una forma de seguir disfrutando de ideas, estilos, estructuras o gráficos que de otra forma ya no serían posibles? Reflexionamos mucho y debatimos sobre varios temas, incluidos aquellos relacionados con temas actuales que afectan al retro. Por ejemplo, el exceso —o no— de remasters y remakes, temas de preservación de videojuegos e incluso de ideas. Porque esto último es lo que, de alguna forma, nos vuelve a llevar a los indies, que recogen muchas cosas del pasado para enriquecerlas con la tecnología y las posibilidades del presente. Por supuesto, hablamos de un montón de juegos retro e indie. Poniendo ejemplos de sagas que han vuelto gracias a los títulos independientes (Streets of Rage), o bien de títulos que se inspiran en grandes obras clásicas (Sea of Stars), pasando por aquellos que directamente son una oda a un estilo gráfico (Downwell). También hablamos del riesgo que pueden tomar esos indies, los cuales pueden ser más originales (hablamos también del juego de autor). Incluso hablamos de todo aquello que los puede acercar más a lo que hoy en día consideramos como retro. O incluso de las influencias que vienen del pasado, pero que luego vuelven a marcar tendencia. Algo que ocurrió, por ejemplo, en el género del Survival Horror. También jugamos con la máquina del tiempo y reflexionamos cómo habrían sido esos títulos indies con estilos clásicos en su propia época. Todo, destacando los precios tan atractivos que esos juegos tienen ahora. Por si fuera poco, también intentamos hablar sobre aquellos géneros, estilos o sagas retro que los indie todavía no han explotado. ¡Entre otras muchas sorpresas! ¿Alguien dijo Monster Hunter? Por último, comentar que es otro episodio en el que no fue posible incluir audios, pero seguiremos con esa misma filosofía de daros voz en próximos programas, incluidos aquellos en los que vuestra participación es la base del podcast. Como siempre, aprovechamos para recordaros que tenemos un grupo de Telegram abierto a todos los oyentes.

From swallowing things with a hole in the previous episode to digging holes in this episode, we proudly announce our surprise seasonal theme of HOLES! Just kidding, but we do have a review of the first game in a legendary indie franchise. Our hero Rusty has a lengthy downward trek, so let's hope we don't run out of steam. This is Underplayed, where Bo_Po and DiscoCola review indie games of all kinds!

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Raemon's Deliberate ("Purposeful?") Practice Club, published by Raemon on November 15, 2023 on LessWrong. Introduction So. I have a theory of feedbackloop-first rationality. It has a lot of parts. I think each part is promising on it's own, and I have a dream that they interconnect into something promising and powerful. I also have a standard, which is that you should be able to tell if it's helping. One of those parts (I think/hope), is "the generalized skill of Deliberate Practice." That is, the meta skill of: Noticing that your goals are bottlenecked on some kind of skill (or skills). Figuring out what those specific skills are. Figuring out who can teach you those skills, or, how to teach them to yourself. Creating an explicit practice regime. Actually putting in the work to practice. Noticing when your practice isn't working, and figuring out how to troubleshoot your process. I do not currently have this meta-skill. I am kind of betting that it exists, based on reading books like Peak, talking with Romeo Stevens, and reading stories like László Polgár who methodically taught his daughters chess. I think I've made progress in the two months I've been working on it, but that progress hasn't translated into "I quickly gained multiple skills" yet, which is the standard I feel like I should set for "this is actually working well enough that other people should be paying attention." I'm experimenting with using this my dialogue format for journaling my explorations here. I'm inviting a few people I know well to be top-level dialogue participants. Everyone else is welcome to follow along in the comments, and note down their own deliberate practice experiments. This will include a mixture of high level theory, and day-to-day practice notes. Okay, reviewing some of my goals here. Here are things that feel like valuable end-goals in and off themselves. I want to get better at prioritizing projects at Lightcone. Right now I feel very "in the dark" about whether anything we do is even helping. I have some guesses for the subskills here. I want to figure out whether/to-what-degree the Meta Deliberate Practice skill can meaningfully be applied to "research" (alignment research in particular, but also generally). Get better at programming. Get better at emotional regulation. Moderately often, I get somewhat annoyed about something and it makes a conversation go worse (or, builds up some small resentments over time) Get better at sleeping, somehow. Get better at Downwell, (a game that I have struggled with beating for a long time), quickly. (This one is mostly for fun) The actual point of this project are the first two bullets. The thing I feel most excited about "rationality" for (compared to, like, learning specific skills, or other frameworks for dealing with problems), is to solve problems that are confusing, where having an accurate map of the world is likely to be your primary bottleneck. The latter bullets are things I care about, but I'm mostly interested in them right now from a lens of "looking for things that seem genuinely worth doing that feel more tractable to practice." Some particular subskills that I feel interested in practicing, but mostly because I believe they somehow help with the above: Get better at making calibrated forecasts (related to decisions I care about). Get better at Thinking Physics problems (I think of this as a testing ground for some subskills related to research) Estimation (i.e. find concrete things to practice estimating, with an eye for getting better at estimating value of fuzzy projects) I want to make a terminological note that may not be that helpful but it is at least related and might be interesting. I recently read "Peak", which is the pop-sci book by K. Anders Ericsson, the discoverer of deliberate practice. In it, he uses anoth...

IMPORTANT NOTE: Masters of VGM Season 2 starts June 1st, and is slated to kick off with Nerd Noise Radio C1E76: "The Big Sound of the Little Guy - vol. 2". To prime the pump of excitement for MoVGM in general, as well as to offer a "compare and contrast" between the incoming, much more polished and measured and matured (and much more well-produced) sequel, and this much more enthusiastic, revolutionary, optimistic, and "heart-ful" example of early, clunky-but-exuberant NNR magic, we are re-running the original ahead of time. I am eager to receive feedback on what everyone things of vol 1 vs vol 2. I think vol 2 is "better",  but vol 1 is "more important". I also think vol 1 is more "joyful", even if more "awkward". But tell me what YOU think!! They also each contain exactly one track composed by......ME - in fact, in this original episode, it's even the opening track! Masters of VGM can be found at www.mastersofvgm.com as well as on Twitter and Discord, and perhaps also other places. NNR will be just one of some 20 or 30 different VGM podcasts. So, please check out the entire collection, and give the other great shows some love as well! :-)   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Original Show Notes:   Today's broadcast is Episode 30 for Theme Thursday, June 14, 2018.

Feed will include Channels 1, 2, 3, and any future channels not yet planned. Feed will also include podcasts in high quality, stereo where applicable, and episodes will never expire off the feed. Therefore it is STRONGLY recommended that you subscribe to this Nerd Noise Radio feed and bypass all others. This one will contain all their content anyway.    Option 2: If you're ONLY interested in Channel 1  ("Noise from the Hearts of Nerds") episodes, and not in any of the other content that is or will be offered by Nerd Noise Radio, there is a Channel 1-specific feed. But it's hosted on a free account, rather than an upgraded account like the "All Channels Feed" with lower quality sound (mono, I believe), a maximum 2hrs per month of content (so if the month's episodes run longer than that, they may need to be trimmed), and episodes expire off the feed forever after 90 days. It is STRONGLY recommended for most listeners to subscribe to the All-Channels feed instead. However, if you really are only interested in Channel 1 content, here's the RSS:     http://www.buzzsprout.com/77944.rss    Our episodes will also appear on our Nerd Noise Radio YouTube Channel - just search for Nerd Noise Radio, you'll find us! Here's today's episode:    https://youtu.be/73kM8YsRUdU    Additionally, there are YouTube Playlists you can follow, both an "All Channels" Feed (recommended), as well as channel-specific feeds. You can find them here:    Nerd Noise Radio Network - All Channels Podcast Feed    Nerd Noise Radio - Channel 1 podcast    Nerd Noise Radio is now available on Twitch as well!

Welcome back to Pursuing Pixels, and welcome back to another edition of 'Save it for the 'cast!' This week, Kevin truly keeps the introduction short and sweet for a change; primarily taking a little time to gush about Downwell, now that it's become his go-to game on the Nintendo Switch again — at least when it comes to playing in handheld mode!

CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 is currently experiencing something of a redemption arc. Does the (hugely) troubled RPG necessarily deserve said arc, though? Well…yes, but also no. This week on Axe of the Blood God, Kat, Nadia, and Eric invite Normandy FM's Kenneth Shepard for a chat about the state of Cyberpunk 2077, as well as what the future holds for the game—and for CD Projekt Red. Also in this episode: RIP Google Stadia, we hardly knew ye. Downwell fans will "dig" Shovel Knight Dig. Heh, that's a good one. "Dig." Autumn of Avatar continues. Toph has joined the party! Forget Cyberpunk. It is all about Cybertwunk now. POST SHOW Cyberpunk 2077's recent renaissance is owed to Cyberpunk Edgerunners, a Netflix series based on CD Projekt's RPG. Eric and special guest Kenneth Shepard talk about what makes the series good enough to bolster its troubled source material. Predictably, all semblance of civilized discussion unravels about midway through the discussion and everyone just yells at each other about Star Wars for the rest of the post show's run time. Available to listeners in the Stars of Destiny tier!

On this week's garish episode of The Gaming Blind Podcast, Samuel doesn't remember what decade it is, would like to read stuff, and doesn't know when IT is going to happen while discussing another five games he will never finish: Mr. Driller (on the PS1), Dead Pixels (on Xbox 360/PC), Sokobond (on PC), Hack, Slash, Loot (on PC), and Downwell (on PC)!

Welcome to another episode of The Pure Nintendo Podcast! This week Jemma and Roger recap their amiibo of the week with the latest in their collections. They also chat about their "wish for the Switch," games they'd like to see on the hybrid console. They spend a lot of time delving into the games they're playing right now, including an interesting new one called Cult of the Lamb, the crazy online fun of Fall Guys, and the serene puzzles of Logic Pic. The cast also covers the latest Nintendo news, dissecting the latest info announced in last week's dedicated Splatoon 3 Direct, as well as addressing the Avatar: The Airbender rumors. Finally, to end the show, Jemma gives us her eShop gem for this week. This week's highlight is a little title from 2019 called Downwell.Time stamps00:00:00 - Intro00:01:35 - Amiibo of the week!00:12:24 - Wish for the Switch00:18:14 - What are we playing this week?Cult of the LambFall GuysLogic Pic00:40:43 - Have you heard?

Volvemos con un episodio cargado de cine con películas para todos los gustos. Empezamos con RRR, una joya mamarracha del cine de acción venida desde Tollywood y que es la película con mayor presupuesto de la historia en India. Verla en España en Netflix sin VPN es posible, aunque tiene sus complicaciones. Siguiendo con Netlfix, los suscriptores a la plataforma pueden jugar al nuevo juego de Ojiro Fumoto de forma gratuita. Si os gustó Downwell, este juego para móviles lo tiene todo para encantaros. Y si no lo conocéis... Darle un tiento, es una de las grandes sorpresas de la temporada. Lightyear, más allá de polémicas absurdas, no termina de convencer a Yosu pero si que lo consigue The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent con Nicolas Cage y Pedro Pascal. La peli de comedia y acción del grande de Nic se convierte en un sorpresón inesperado a la par que divertido ambientado en Mallorca. También dejamos un espacio al cine fantástico y de terror con dos de las cintas más esperadas del año con Black Phone y Crimes of the Future. Black Phone tiene a un Ethan Hawke hipnótico y ya se puede ver en la mayoría de salas del país, mientras que la última de Cronenberg nos obliga a esperar a un estreno polémico con una distribución tardía en España. Para cerrar hablaremos de su futuro estreno, el papel de Paco Fox al pactar la fecha y si la piratería puede afectar a su rendimiento en taquilla.

En el programa de esta semana de Checkpoint hablamos de una de las grandes sorpresas de esta semana: Poinpy. Bajo el paraguas de Netflix, el desarrollador Ojiro Fumoto, creador de Downwell, ha publicado su segundo juego por sorpresa, invitándonos a controlar a una especie de pájaro que debe ascender por un enorme foso recogiendo fruta para alimentar a un gato igualmente enorme con debilidad por los zumos. Adictivo, divertido y muy, muy bonito, Poinpy es uno de los juegos de móviles más interesantes de los últimos tiempos.Para la segunda parte del programa nos aferramos a eso, los juegos de móviles, para hablar de un puñado de ellos que nos demuestran lo que es un buen diseño para móviles. Juegos que utilizan la pantalla táctil, que aprovechan la movilidad que permiten, o que consiguen llevar la lógica de juegos más complejos a la simplicidad e inmediatez del teléfono desfilan por nuestro programa para demostrar que el móvil no es una plataforma menor. Para acabar, contestamos las preguntas de nuestros oyentes, un poco resacosos de la cantidad de noticias de las dos últimas semanas en el mundo del videojuego.

This week on The Free Cheese, we're going down. Our first mobile game makes the list this week as we explore the roguelike Downwell.

Eh Yo! The Indie Game Downwell gets an arcade cabinet. This week we speak with Joseph and his Cabinet Design for the indie game Downwell. We go over how he built the cabinet from an empty shell of an old Lethal Enforcer for the indie game Downwell which is a perfect arcade game. Joseph made the cabinet and then donated it to Glitch Bar in Fort Lauderdale Florida where it lives among all of the other indie arcade games we speak about on this channel.

Vi er tilbake på biblioteket i Tønsberg for å kjøre live-podcast, og serverte alt fra hotte nyheter om norsk e-sport, VR-satsing på Switch, våre tanker om Flat Earth-dokumentaren på Netflix og Sonic-filmen, samt våre erfaringer fra tandem-kjøring i Trials Rising, den nye utvidelsen til Destiny 2, det glimrende Downwell (som er like glimrende på mobil) og veldig mye mer. God helg!

In episode 43, we discuss the Black Friday deals that we grabbed. We talk about Battlefront 2 and microtransactions (hopefully for the last time). We do an overview on some of the nominees and categories for The Game Awards. In "My Gift to You", Art discusses the addictive, frustrating, simple experience of "Downwell" and Art gives Steak a gift to help fill some gaps in his GOTY knowledge. (Released 11.29.17)

A nivel informativo esta semana el evento que ha acaparado toda la atención ha sido el nuevo Nintendo Direct de 45 minutos dedicado a presentar las próximas novedades de 3DS y Switch. Debatimos sobre sus anuncios, pero también sobre otras noticias de interés. Y es que Destiny 2 se ha convertido en el lanzamiento más importante en lo que llevamos de año para consolas y en Bungie están muy sorprendidos. Por otro lado, Cliff Bleszinski ha hablado sobre Lawbreakers y ese fracaso que parece sacudir al título al menos en PC. Sus declaraciones van a dar que hablar, como también las del vicepresidente de Electronic Arts al ser preguntado sobre un posible Dragon Age 4. ¿Seguirá la senda del increíble Inquisition? Quedaos hasta el final porque tenemos un debate centrado en el nuevo iPhone X, además de impresiones en caliente de juegos como el reciente Metroid: Samus Returns. Sumario del programa: – Presentación – Noticias: Nintendo Direct, Cliff Bleszinski habla sobre LawBreakers, Destiny 2 es el lanzamiento en consolas más importante del año y nuevos rumores sobre el próximo Dragon Age. – Interludio musical: Undertale – Megalovania – Opinión de mierda: ¿Es el IPhone X una alternativa real como hardware de videojuegos? – A qué estamos jugando: Metroid: Samus Returns, Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy y Downwell. – Comentarios y despedida.

Ryan and Matt "Quote Unquote" Amberg couldn't help but watch Speed, Pee-wee's Big Adventure, Whiplash (again again), Cleveland's Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Red Eye, Fury, and Ryan's Math Journey to Elite Town, just as much as they couldn't help playing Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, Team Fortress 2's Halloween update, Halo 5's multiplayer, Watch Dogs, and consummate airplane games Downwell, Pac-man 256, and Tiny Wings 2's latest update. Then Fallout 4 takes over, as it will, Darksiders 2 to 3, Need for Speed's free DLC kick, Rocket League's new features, The Witcher Movie, The Activision Blizzard Movie, Blizzcon and Overwatch, Xbox One's backwards compatibility and DLC support, The Game Awards 2015, Dark Souls 3 Extra Money Edition, Battleborn delayed, UFC 2 announced, Mass Effect Andromeda teased, Life Is Strange 2 announced, and Alan Wake 2... confirmed!

Meanwhile important things actually happened like Evolve's Gorgon, Mirror's Edge Catalyst's delay, Titanfall's big year, Epic's new Paragon, Konami's Chinese Contra, Nintendo's new mobile game and rewards program, LEAVO 2017, Activision's King Dingaling, and the death of sucky Sonic!

Then ==> Harmonix shenanigans, Payday 2 hubbubs, Doom's alpha gameplay, Fallout Shelter's wiener update, Just Cause 3's new videos, Telltale's Game of Thrones finale and freeness, Burnout Paradise comes to Xbox One, Cobalt is delayed, Shenmue 3 exists and is explained better somewhere else, and Sony shows up a Paris Games Week with Quantic Dream's "Detroit", Gran Turismo Sport, Media Molecule's "Explore Dreams", Horizon: Zero Dawn, No Man's Sky, Star Wars Battlefront, Street Fighter 5 and Dhalsim, and Playstation VR news for Tekken 7, Crytek's "Robinson: The Journey", and "Until Dawn: Rush of Blood."
