Have respect for the common man. You might be a grumpy dude, but if you go outside and you see somebody struggling. Sometimes it's just that simple hello that gets them from doing or being what they plan on being because of their life status. Everybody has low points, and sometimes it's you. You got to just be kind to people. Have respect for one another.

One of UEFN's biggest strengths is that it is a melting pot of intellectual property. Jeremy Pedron, Lead Game Designer at JOGO Studios, calls it “a vast childhood playroom”, a place where you can combine playing with Batman while also playing with Legos. As creative costs go down to zero, the modern gaming market is undergoing a transformation in how IP is created. In summary, IP has never been more adaptable. Host, Alexandra Takei, Director at Ruckus Games, sits down with Kevin Mariano, CEO of Future Trash, and Jeremy to discuss how building IP for gaming today differs from the past. They explore two distinct strategies, one focused on establishing unique art style and character design, and the other centered around character development and lore — and how both studios utilize UEFN to their advantage. The conversation also addresses the implications of transferring IP off the platform and what limitations a UGC-native brand and IP might face. For further insights into JOGO and the Fortnite Creative Economics system, be sure to listen to our other episode here.We'd also like to thank Overwolf for making this episode possible!

VR-games zijn in de afgelopen tien jaar aardig volwassen geworden, blijkt ook uit Arizona Sunshine Remake, een opnieuw gemaakte versie van de game die het Nederlandse Vertigo Games in 2016 al afleverde. Hoe dat in elkaar zit, bespreken Joe van Burik, Jochem Visser en Niels Kooloos met Nick Witsel, Lead Game Designer bij Vertigo Games. Wat speelt er bij Joe, Jochem en Niels? Neva Dead Rising Remastered Dale & Dawson Stationary Supplies Retro-rubriek BNR-collega Daan van Rijn over Skate 2.0 Over All in the GameAll in the Game is de podcast over games voor iedereen. Wanneer er iets speelt in de wereld van games, hoor je dat hier: spannende ontwikkelingen, boeiende onderzoeken en natuurlijk de nieuwste releases om te spelen op je PlayStation, Xbox, pc of welk platform dan ook.Onder leiding van BNR's techredacteur Joe van Burik hoor je gesprekken met andere gamekenners, zoals hoogleraar computerwetenschappen Felienne Hermans, audioproducers André Dortmont en Wesley Schouwenaars, beursnerd Jochem Visser, techredacteurs Niels Kooloos en Daniël Mol én popcultuurkenners Donner Bakker en Sam van Zuilen.Elke week hoor je minimaal één aflevering van All in the Game. Of juist meerdere, wanneer er veel speelt in de wereld van games.Soms met impressies en analyses over actuele ontwikkelingen en nieuwe games. Andere keren kun je luisteren naar interviews met makers van bijzondere games, van Grand Theft Auto (GTA) tot Baldur's Gate 3 - zowel Nederlandse als internationale ontwikkelaars. Of we praten met e-sport-atleten, onderzoekers en andere experts in de wereld van videogames, in onze rubriek Main Game. En regelmatig laten we iemand van BNR Nieuwsradio aanschuiven om te vertelen over diens favoriete game van vroeger in de Retro-rubriek.In deze podcast kijken we verder dan alleen wat een game leuk maakt: we bespreken juist ook in de culturele, maatschappelijke, economische en technologische impact ervan. Jaarlijks gaat er immers zo'n 200 miljard euro om in de wereldwijde game-industrie, dat is al (vele jaren zelfs) daadwerkelijk meer dan de muziek- en filmindustrie bij elkaar opgeteld.Zo hoor je bij All in the Game niet alleen wat je moet spelen - en op welk nieuwe (game)platform - maar kun je daar nog bewuster mee bezig zijn, over praten en natuurlijk van genieten. Of het nou gaat om Super Mario of Sonic the Hedgehog, Fortnite of Roblox, voetbalgames van EA Sports FC of de FIFA, Call of Duty of Battlefield, League of Legends of Dota,of goude oude titels zoals Tetris, Rollercoaster Tycoon, The Sims of zelfs Snake. En we hebben ook aandacht voor liefhebberijen die dicht op games zitten, zoals Dungeons & Dragons, Lego en de films, series en strips rond reeksen zoals Star Wars en Marvel. Het komt allemaal aan bod in All in the Game.All in the Game werd als podcast al in 2022 opgenomen in het archief van Het Nederlands instituut voor Beeld & Geluid in Hilversum - als eerste podcast van BNR Nieuwsradio en één van de eerste gamepodcasts van allemaal. Gezamenlijk met talloze Nederlandse televisieprogramma's, radioshows, games, websites, webvideo's en podcast vormt dit materiaal de Nederlandse mediageschiedenis.Over Joe van BurikJoe van Burik is presentator, podcastmaker en techredacteur bij BNR Nieuwsradio. Je hoort hem bijna dagelijks in de Tech Update met het laatste nieuws over digitale technologie, en gaat daar in BNR Digitaal (samen met Ben van der Burg) elke woensdag dieper op in met gasten uit de techwereld. Daarnaast maakt hij onder meer de podcast All in the Game, voor iedereen die meer wil horen over videogames.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week we had the pleasure of interviewing Rory Rackham, Lead Game Designer for GGG! He's had an impact on so many (maybe all?) aspects of Path of Exile and has been a major voice in the development of the game since PoE itself was in diapers; a true cornerstone of the company. In episode 237 we talked about the life of Rory, what led him to GGG, how the ride has been, where it's going, and snack bars! We had such a good time getting to know him, that we were surprised when the questions came to an end! Thanks, Rory for giving us your time! We had an awesome time getting to know you.

She is the author of the bestselling urban fantasy Love, Lies, and Hocus Pocus universe of books featuring several series, which have sold over half a million copies world-wide. Most recently she has released the TransDimensional Hunter series with NYT bestselling author John Ringo. Lydia subsists on liberal amounts of dark chocolate and tea, and hates sleep because it keeps her from writing (though she needs it because she has kids to wrangle). Due to the tireless efforts of her game-designer husband and her fuzzy overlords—i.e. cats—she remains sane and even occasionally remembers to leave the house. David Sherrer is a born storyteller and has been an obsessive gamer ever since he was seduced by Magic the Gathering at the tender age of fourteen. He has alternately owned a gaming store, street performed for a living, and survived eleven years in the soul crushing world of telecommunications. He lucked out by marrying a force of nature who was determined to making living off writing, and has since escaped his 9-5 to become the Marketing Director and Lead Game Designer of Chenoweth Press. His most fond achievements include being Time Magazine Person of the Year in 2006—there's a story there, just ask him—and that time he made his entire DnD party cry at the end of a campaign. In addition to his work, he wrangles his growing family and a herd of feline supervisors, while secretly plotting how to add to the mountain of board games that he swears to his wife he actually plays.   The introductory, end, and bumper music for this podcast (“Laser Groove”) was composed and produced by Kevin MacLeod of www.incompetech.com and is Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0

Folge 4 vom PC Games Podcast ist etwas anders als die vorigen Episoden, denn diesmal haben wir einen externen Gast. Jan Rawski, Lead Game Designer beim Double-A-Studio Artificer, arbeitet momentan am kommenden Runden-Taktik-Spektakel Homicidal All-Stars, das uns in eine an Running-Man angelehnte brutale Game-Show mit Cyberpunk-Setting werfen wird. Zuvor hat Jan bereits bei CreativeForge Games an Hard West und Phantom Doctrine mitgearbeitet. Im Podcast berichtet uns Jan ausführlich über seinen aktuellen Job, aber auch über seinen oftmals steinigen Weg in die Branche. Das alles wird mit allerhand Anekdoten aus der Gamesindustrie und der Entwicklung seiner Spiele sowie hilfreichen Tipps für Leute, die gerne in der Branche Fuß fassen möchten, angereichert. Um Homicidal All-Stars selbst geht es dann aber auch noch. Jan möchte uns zwar noch keinen festen Releasetermin nennen, aber Kollege Felix durfte bereits eine Preview-Fassung des Spiels zocken. Meister Schütz wird deshalb kurzerhand dazugeholt, sodass noch ein tiefgründiger Talk zu den Features des Taktikspiels entsteht. Die Themen von Ausgabe 4: 00:00:00 - Intro, Begrüßung 00:04:21 - Gastspiel: Jan Rawski (Lead Game Designer bei Artificer) 01:19:15 - Interview zu Homicidal All-Stars Habt ihr Fragen zum Podcast oder zu den darin besprochenen Themen?

Developed and published by Drinkbox Studios, Nobody Saves the World is an Action RPG that has you try to stop the Calamity from ending the world. You play as Nobody, literally, with one unique magical power; You're able to transform into 20 different forms. From a rat to a mermaid, to even a Necromancer. All the powers of the forms are yours to command and customize. If you want a horse that can shoot a flurry of arrows while making light rain on your enemies? You can do that. If you want a Turtle that oozes slime while summoning zombies, you can do that too. With an in-depth quest system and many dungeons to explore, it's only Nobody against a horde of hideous monsters to stop the ever-looming threat. This week, we got to chat with Ian Campbell, Lead Game Designer of Drinkbox Studios, about how the team came up with the many different standout features of Nobody Saves the World.

While the phrase "game design" might seem a bit abstract, and the job of “game designer” being one of those easily romanticized, Andrada makes her role easy to understand as she gives us the details of her craft from concept to release. Together, she and Petter tackle topics like design documents, collaboration between teams, systems design and of course, how to develop fun game features. Andrada also brought some classic Swedish Fika, but with a bit of a twist! Are those name tags…?
