Ben's new TCP backpressure explanation: conveyor belts full. Matt zooms out and mistakes his factory for a Pentium 2. Ben plans to switch to Linux gaming; Matt's start bar keeps popping up and he's had it.

Welcome to Turtle Jump--the video game podcast of your heart and mine (and mine)! We're back in your life with another TJ. You can expect these more regularly: look for a new episode to drop Bi-Weekly on Wednesdays! This week, Paul and Allen get together to talk about all kinds of nonsense. We cover a bit of news, some predictions for Keighley's TGAs, and eventually we give some thoughts on the games we've been playing in the gap between Pogeymans and Metroid. Email us and tell us you love us. Or whatever else, idk. Maybe some episode topic suggestions? turtlejumpletters@gmail.com

We subject many of our games covered so far against each other in only 2 of 8 brackets of a double elimination match, to be concluded sometime in the future. For the long-time fans

On this week's episode, Brad and Eric sit down and dream of a better world where corporate decisions, budgets, marketing and computing limitations are non-existent. A world where every Warhammer game could be made, even if the user interface is a spreadsheet. A world where the protagonist of a game could be a Drukhari that would make every renegade decision in Mass Effect looks like a paragon decision. A world where modeling an entire planet that doesn't look in the slightest as earth wouldn't blow the budget. A world where fighting games could have good battlepasses. A world where every new model and character wouldn't need to be submitted for approval by Games Workshop. In this world, which games would we like to see realized in the Warhammer Universe?

V novém Talk to si Pavel Dobrovský povídá s Matějem Lehárem, ředitelem orchestru Filmharmonie.VIDEO Z ROZHOVORU JE DOSTUPNÉ PRO PATRONY!Filmharmonie se soustředí na koncerty filmové hudby a od roku 2018 cíleně zařazuje i koncerty Games plné herní hudby. „Herní hudba je pro mě přirozeným pokračováním filmové. Má silné melodie, emoce i příběh — jen místo plátna má svět, ve kterém se hráč může pohybovat,“ říká Matěj Lehár.Dozvíte se, proč koncerty Filmharmonie od roku 2014 vyprodávají Rudolfinum, proč Matěj sází na akustický sál bez zadních projekcí a jak staví program výhradně z příjmů ze vstupenek. „Ve chvíli, kdy jdete do sportovní haly, už orchestr musí být nazvučený a hodně záleží na zvukaři. V Rudolfinu hrajeme akusticky a všechno, co chceme, aby posluchači slyšeli, se k nim opravdu dostane,“ dodává Matěj.Podíváme se i do zákulisí a dozvíte se, jak se přepisují MIDI stopy do orchestrálních partitur i o tom, jak se shání licence a noty. „Když chcete hrát skladbu z videohry, často zjistíte, že neexistuje žádný oficiální notový zápis a že studia ani netuší, proč by se to mělo dělat. Musíte se obrátit přímo na skladatele – a když ho to nadchne, někdy vám po týdnu pošle celý balík not s tím, že si to máte prostě zahrát,“ vysvětluje Matěj.Dozvíte se, jak poslouchat leitmotivy a na co se zaměřit, aby orchestru „rozumělo“ i první posluchačské setkání. „Stačí se nechat tou hudbou obklopit a nevzdávat to po prvních minutách. Člověk si k ní musí postupně najít cestu,“ říká Lehár. „Orchestr má obrovskou sílu, ale i schopnost detailu. Když se desítky lidí na pódiu snaží o jednu věc, musí z toho jít energie. Publikum to cítí a odchází nabité.“Zazní i pozvánka na koncert Games 23. listopadu 2025 v Rudolfinu: průřez českou herní hudbou od devadesátek po současnost (např. Brány Skeldalu, Mafia, Operace Flashpoint/Arma, Factorio, Space Engineers, Machinarium, Samorost, Polda, Posel smrti, Kingdom Come I/II, Bulánci). „Je to pocta české herní hudbě a skladatelům, kteří ji tvoří srdcem,“ uzavírá Matěj Lehár.Podívejte se na ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.retronation.cz⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ na skvělé výlety do herního retra!

What's up chat, välkommen till veckans avsnitt av Speljuntan. Don't forget to like and subscribe! Veckans generaluppsättning försöker sia om framtiden för Destiny 2 – är framtidsplanerna nog för att vända ett skepp som tar in vatten, eller lite mer som hjärt- och lungräddning på en fisk som redan landat i delidisken? Dessutom: är MMR av godo eller ondo, och ska looten vara frekvent eller sällsynt? Don't forget to... eller hade vi redan sagt det? Likt åldrande streamers med minnesproblem försöker vi sedan komma ihåg vad vi har spelat den senaste veckan. Det blir en märklig deja vu-känsla när Angelica beskriver sina fabriksäventyr i Little Rocket Lab. Elisabeth regredierar till tonårens prestationskrav i det självbiografiska indiespelet Consume Me. Don't forget to... eh...? Var var vi nu igen? Massor av extra poddmaterial, såsom sprillans nya Kafferep och Patreon's Choice, får du om du blir Patreon på speljuntan.se. Don't forget to like and subscribe!

I got my legs moving a bit faster than normal this morning. I think I took a minute off my usual time. Talked about Factorio, transferring cassettes, and what I’m reading (a sample that has some promise but might not … Continue reading →

Temps in the high 30s when I started out this morning. I went with the parka. Saw some geese before the recording started. I’ve futzed about the house too long now and forgotten what I talked about. Factorio, certainly. Wandering … Continue reading →

The team makes a move on the warehouse to recover the missing rocket parts. Scene 17 Scene 18 GM Notes The MacGuffin of this arc, rocket control units, is from another video game, Factorio. Like our adventure, Factorio involves crashing on an alien world. And the objective is also to launch a rocket into space. Factorio's means of doing so, however, involve more ecological destruction than Mariah and Cleve might be comfortable with. Our music is from Purple Planet Music. Visit them at purple-planet.com. Need context? Jump to the start of the series!

Something in the air this morning. Or at least up my nose. Luckily the sneezes gave up after a bit. Talked too much about Factorio, gave some lip service to Wandering Inn. Commented on the foliage and flowers, as one … Continue reading →

Just barely crawling today but I made it around. Talked a little about Factorio, pulling audio from cassettes, and Ed Nelson’s Cast in Time series.

After yesterday’s hustle, this morning felt pretty laid back. Talked about Noah Chinn’s series ender, Ed Nelson’s Cast in Time series. Gave a nod to the next volume of Wandering Inn and Factorio. I’m not thinking about what I might … Continue reading →

Needed to get the walk in before my lab work. Talked about fun with EFI, a little Factorio, and my gratitude over having the Cat on somebody else’s desk.

Explore game development philosophy and AI's evolving impact through Factorio creator Michal Kovařík's insights on AlphaGo's transformation of Go, current programming limitations, and the future of human-AI collaboration. Bio: Michal Kovařík is a Czech game developer best known as the co-founder and creative head of Wube Software, the studio behind the global indie hit Factorio. Under his online alias “kovarex,” Kovařík began the Factorio project in 2012 with a vision to blend his favorite game elements – trains, base-building, logistics, and automation – into a new kind of construction & management simulation. Initially funded via a modest Indiegogo campaign, Factorio blossomed from a garage project into one of Steam's top-rated games, praised for its deep automation gameplay and technical excellence. Kovařík guided Factorio through an 8-year development in open alpha/early access, cultivating a passionate player community through regular “Friday Facts” blog updates. By 2024, Factorio had sold over 4 million copies worldwide, all without ever going on sale.Michal now leads a team of ~30 in Prague, renowned for their principled business approach (no discounts, no DRM) and fan-centric development style, and he's just launched Factorio's Space Age expansion.

Probably talked too much about upgrading to Mint 22. Also mentioned book 3 in Noel Chinn’s Lost series, nodded at Factorio, and threaded my way past a whole bunch of road work. Oh, and I reset my fast boot problem. … Continue reading →

I geeked out over Ventoy, linux distros, and Factorio.

I lounged around the house this morning and got a late start. Talked about the Cat, Factorio, Lost Souls, and more Factorio. This algebra problem should not be this difficult but I keep trying to do it in my head.

Saw the first red leaves of autumn this morning. A chilly one out there today. Talked about the usual stuff. Factorio, what I’m reading (Lost Souls, Noah Chinn), the Cat beta feedback, and how I might teach novel writing. Weird … Continue reading →

I didn’t think it was as rainy as it turned out to be. Bigger fool me, but it was a 2-day so… Talked about the rain, Factorio (a little), reading (finished Fishing, started The Ghost Is Clear), and a bit … Continue reading →

A slow meander on top of a late start. Just as well, it was raining until just before sunrise. Talked about Factorio too much, the Cat too little, and Haylock Jobson in passing. Spend some minutes talking about living the … Continue reading →

The dental excursion yesterday, while relatively uninspiring, still left me draggin’ my tail this morning. I got out, probably spent too much time walking-not-talking, but it’s a 1-day and I did The Thing. Talked about Heretical Fishing, Factorio, and a … Continue reading →

Temps in the 40s this morning. The season is definitely turning. I talked about Ghost Mortem, beta readers for the Cat, and Factorio, along with the normal maundering about my wandering.

Yes, I walked in the rain. Put on my rain shell and did the thing because it’s a 2-day and a little water won’t hurt me. Talked about Forgotten Fleet, The Cat, and Factorio. Mostly Factorio. An the weather. I … Continue reading →

Lots of cloud layers today. I may have been a little too enamored of them Talked about revisiting the Cat today, Forgotten Fleet, and – of course – Factorio.

That’s what I get for waiting until the sun gets up before getting out for the walk. Sweaty. Talked about yesterday’s dental visit, The Forgotten Fleet, and Factorio math.

Had to walk a little earlier this morning to clear the way for a dental appointment. Lots of family business to deal with today after a glorious day off yesterday. I talked about Roger, Factorio, and The Forgotten Fleet.

I got out early this morning, in part because I’m against a 9am deadline and also because I was up and ready to go. Didn’t feel like waiting for sunrise. Talked about the Cat, Factorio, the Japanese 4-act structure Kishōtenketsu, … Continue reading →

Kind of a dreary looking morning. Not as chilly as yesterday’s 40F but the damp made it feel cooler. I talked about A Novel That Will Not Be Named, Factorio, and how much better the Cat is than I thought … Continue reading →

Talked about Factorio too much and writing a little. Some commentary on the morning.

So I was on the fence. Take the extra day off or walk the extra 1 day in a row. I walked. Obviously. I talked a lot about Factorio, Sam Blood’s Counterpart Academy Book 1 (A School So Gorgeous and … Continue reading →

Seems like 2 out 3 days is a winning combination. I talked about making the milestone, finishing Sarah J. Hoodlet’s volume 2 of Way of the Wielder, and a new perspective on Factorio.

Sorry. A weird headspace this morning. Wonderfully mystical morning with low hanging ground fog being illuminated by the rising sun. Talked about Roger, Way of the Wielder, and Factorio again.

Not quite wet enough to be sub dude, but still a damp and dreary morning. I mumbled about Way of the Wielder and Factorio along with recaps of yesterday’s fun with City Inspectors and My Visit With Roger. (Not to … Continue reading →

At least it was cool. I talked about Sarah J. Hoodlet’s Way of the Wielder series, Factorio, and a little bit about Roger and the Cat. Will I have a full draft by month’s end? It’s possible. Or was possible … Continue reading →

And babbling. Usual blather. Factorio, wrapping up Soldier’s Life 4, spending quality time with Roger every morning. I seem to write his mornings more than evenings. Wonder if that would change if I wrote in the evening…

In addition to the usual Factorio, Soldier’s Life, and Roger, I talked about two Greek concepts of time – chronos and kairos – and the video I saw last night from Jessica McCabe of How to ADHD fame.

Literally, in this case. I baked the week’s bread before getting underway this morning. The difference in time – about half an hour – made the back half of this walk really sweaty. I talked about Factorio mostly, with some … Continue reading →

In which I went into way too much detail about fixing my SecondLife client problems yesterday and how my Factorio game is off on the wrong chunk. Tech note: My fumbly fingers stopped the recording inadvertantly as I was getting … Continue reading →

Caught myself walking-not-talking a lot this morning. What little I did say concerned writing, reading, and playing Factorio. Also, I forgot to turn on airplane mode and shut off the bluetooth and wifi. Might be some extra noise.

It’s supposed to be hot again today, but I baked my bread this morning before dawn and got out early before I feel asleep again. Talked about the first 5 minutes and “showing up” a little. Factorio. The sky. Lots … Continue reading →

Oddsparks: An Automation Adventure ist der Name des neusten Spiels, das Robert Schneider mit seinem Studio Massive Miniteam nun ganz frisch aus dem Early Access und in den Full Release gerollt hat. Man könnte viele Worte suchen und finden, um den Titel zu beschreiben, aber am einfachsten ist es so: Oddsparks sieht aus, als hätte Nintendo ein eigenes Factorio entwickelt. Dieser treffende Vergleich ist nichts, was sich Gastgeber Dom Schott ausgedacht hat, sondern kursierte längst als Beschreibung für den Titel durch's Netz, als er sich mit Robert Schneider vor dem Mikro traf. Und der muss sich deswegen gleich als allererstes über diese Frage Gedanken machen - nämlich wie es sich anfühlt, wenn die eigene Arbeit mit Nintendo höchstselbst verglichen wird. Anschließend tauchen die beiden tief ein in die Studiogeschichte von Massive Miniteam, die Arbeit an Oddsparks und wie es dem Team derzeit so geht. Denn: in den letzten Monaten mussten einige MitarbeiterInnen das Studio verlassen, das seit Jahren zur großen und wankenden Embracer Group gehört. Auch für dieses unangenehme Thema ist Platz in diesem Podcastgespräch.

In this episode, Dave and Kris wrap up their experiences with the massively successful Factorio Space Age expansion.  For more Automation and Factory Game content, check out the website at https://bottleneckgaming.com.  If you have any questions, feedback, or want to reach out to our hosts, you can find them at bottleneckshow@gmail.com, @bottleneck_show on TwiX, TheBottleneckShow on Twitch, or the ever growing Discord channel. https://discord.gg/spErtWZznN

Chris went to a gas station for the first time in forever, so naturally there are things to talk about there. Switch 2 preorders have come and gone, Jason's playing Factorio, Chris is playing Blue Prince, and a couple of new games have come to Game Pass in the last two weeks.
