Izzy's back this week on NAFC, and he and Mox immediately derail things by raving about F1—because apparently, there's nothing quite like million-dollar cars turning left at terrifying speeds. Izzy also shares stories about his truly bizarre circle of friends and the ridiculous antics that seem to follow them around. With the anime season wrapping up, he drops his short list of standouts (and begs everyone to keep watching Yaiba). Then it's on to the reluctant group review of K Pop Demon Hunters, a movie they watched so you don't have to—trust us. Finally, they dive into their first pick for the new theme One Room Horror with The Invitation (2015), unpacking paranoia, awkward dinner parties, and why you should always trust your gut.

Then Peter embraces the whimsy, gets curious, and grabs a stickerbook to get cozy in Pilo and the Holobook from Mudita Games. Paul goes yo-yo crazy in the yo-yo-vania Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo from Pocket Trap. And Zahra gets a serious case of the Mondays while finding themselves in the game The River from bokchoi..

In this episode, host Alexandra Takei, Director at Ruckus Games, sits down with Mac Reynolds, co-founder and CEO of Night Street Games and Night Street Records, and Matthew Berger, Game Director at Night Street Games. Together, they unpack the journey of building Last Flag — a zany 5v5 hero shooter with capture-the-flag at its heart and music embedded deep in its DNA. From a scrappy prototype built with an outsourced team to a 50+ person studio, they share lessons on pivoting engines, refining the core loop, and innovating within the oversaturated PC shooter market. They discuss how music shapes gameplay moments, creates immersion, and differentiates Last Flag from typical shooters — and in a first-ever moment at Naavik, we share exclusive music tracks straight from the game itself. The conversation also explores parallels between the business of music and gaming industries, what game devs can learn from music artists, and the realities of cutting through noise on Steam for a new IP.

On this episode, host David Taylor sits down with Dan Bunting, the former Studio Head of Treyarch and one of the key creative leaders behind the Call of Duty franchise. With over 18 years at Treyarch, Dan helped shape some of the most iconic moments in FPS history — from the introduction of Zombies mode in World at War to the rise of the Black Ops series.We explore how Call of Duty became the dominant FPS franchise, and how Treyarch carved out its own identity through bold design decisions, narrative risk-taking, and constant innovation. Dan shares behind-the-scenes stories from the early 2000s to the modern era, reflecting on the key audience insights, design shifts, and tech evolutions that influenced Treyarch's approach.We also dive into his transition from studio leadership to entrepreneurship and investing, his outlook on the next decade of Call of Duty, and what excites him most about the future of the gaming industry.We'd also like to thank Neon – a merchant of record with customizable webshops optimized for conversion – for making this episode possible!
