Podcasts about Monkey Island

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we start a new series on 2005's Psychonauts. We stay in the same year as our last game, and dive into a little of the prehistory of the game before diving into the game proper. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Coach Oleander's Brain Issues covered: making something for someone else to own, spinning off from LucasArts, staying true to their persona, being a more open studio, documentaries about the studio, the possibility of the studio closing, how the game starts, a super stylistic game, clear identity, bringing individuality to each character, asymmetry, offending the efficient developer, hand-crafting everything, impeccable writing and voice acting, themes coming through later, trailblazing, an indie scene in San Francisco, changing guards at publishers, drawing on psychology for its setting, a cohesive and pure game, exploring two tutorial areas, customizing buckets of figments of imagination, building engine game and studio together, crunch-tastic development, a variety of action and platforming primitives, an underimplemented feel and polish, fighting the camera, systemic cameras that have trouble covering everything, a big swing, asymmetric multiplayer modes, mutators, an internal mail alias, voice over IP, what do you need to support an MP game post-launch, inventory tetris, risk to return to get a loot item, a vestigial element of games, forcing hard choices or loops, re-examining genre "defaults," informing our own work, Octavia's gadget system, giving more agency to the player, a shifting meta, a wide tunnel of known options.  Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, Tim Schafer, Grim Fandango, Full Throttle, LucasArts, Microsoft, Ed Fries, Majesco, 2015, Metal of Honor: Allied Assault, Infinity Ward, Call of Duty, Jason West, Vince Zapella, Nihilistic, Infinite Machine, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Phantom Menace, Dean Sharpe, Kalani Streicher, Broken Age, Unreal Engine, Kiln, Two Player Productions, Scott Campbell, Disney, Warner Bros, Studio Ghibli, Peter Chan, Day of the Tentacle, SW: Republic Commando, Beyond Good & Evil, Monkey Island (series), Spyro, Super Mario (series), Illumination, Braid, Celeste, Choice Provisions/Gaijin Games, Super Meat Boy, Team Meat, World of Goo, Crystal Dynamics, Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, Ocarina of Time, Ashton Herrmann, Unreal Tournament, Quake, Duke Nuke'em, Hunt: Showdown, Repo, Peak, Matthew, Outlaws, Aliens vs Predator, Starcraft, Matthew, Diablo, Animal Crossing, Resident Evil (series), Harley Baldwin, Halo, DOOM (1993), Maas, Project: Octavia, Troy Mashburn, Thief (series), Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia.

¿Quién no se ha pasado horas frente a una pantalla de tubo intentando combinar un pollo de goma con una polea? Hubo un tiempo en el que los videojuegos no dependían de gráficos fotorrealistas ni de mecánicas frenéticas de disparo, sino de la pura capacidad de sumergirte en una gran historia a base de ingenio, humor absurdo y buenas dosis de paciencia. Las aventuras gráficas de los años noventa marcaron a toda una generación de jugadores que descubrieron que un puñado de píxeles bien puestos podía competir de tú a tú con las mejores novelas y películas de la época. A través de sellos legendarios como LucasArts o Sierra, títulos de la talla de The Secret of Monkey Island, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Grim Fandango o Maniac Mansion redefinieron la narrativa interactiva. Hoy reivindicamos el valor cultural de unas obras de arte que desafiaban la mente del jugador y expandían los límites de la imaginación. Repasamos la evolución, el diseño de puzles inolvidables y el impacto duradero de un género que demostró que la tecnología debe estar siempre al servicio de una buena historia. Para hablar de todo esto contamos con Getro, miembro de la casa, apasionado del medio y gran conocedor del legado que estos clásicos dejaron en la cultura popular. Con él nos embarcaremos en un viaje de nostalgia y análisis para desgranar por qué, décadas después, seguimos recordando con tanto cariño aquellos maravillosos años de disquetes y pantallas de carga. Tertulia #326. Bienvenidos a la Terra Ignota. ____________________________________ Recuerda darle a suscribirse para no perderte futuros contenidos.

Join us in this week's 'cafe-isode' at Squeaky Cream's Artisanal Fromagery and Coffee Roastery, where instead of coffee foam they serve cappuccinos with a dollop of gorgonzola. Here we'll be reflecting on a big question in the escape room industry: Is escaping "enough" anymore? Or do you have another core central mechanic? How about inserting other mechanics into rooms, such as achievements and side games? What makes a room memorable?   As always, here are your recommendations for this month. Jamie - The Rest is Science (podcast), an accessible and fun science podcast that tackles questions of life and the universe. Bailey - Museum of Pop Culture with Josh Widdicombe (podcast) that is about exactly that - moments in pop culture history! Mike - Ade Edmondson's Beserker! (book), a fantastic read from a national treasure.   Hosts: Mike Collins, Jamie Gibbs, Emma Bailey Editor: Jamie Gibbs Come and chat to us on Facebook, Instagram, BlueSky and LinkedIn. Or join our Patreon programme for perks, early access episodes and bonus content. The Infinite Escape Room is a comedy escape room podcast where a group of friends make and solve audio escape rooms. It's one part tabletop RPG, one part escape room with a bit of Monkey Island-style humour sprinkled over the top.

Another in-person recording from Jamie's home in the Welsh hills, with Jamie hosting and Mike and Emma (Bailey) solving. Here, the gang wander into a fantasy tavern called The Weary Wyvern. Straight out of a D&D adventure opening, the orc innkeeper has a problem. What follows is an epic adventure, all in the name of the ultimate prize: a free pint. No quest? No problem! Lets hope it's natural 20s all round. Puzzle Maestro: Jamie Gibbs Solvers: Mike Collins, Emma Bailey Episode Art: Dom Jordan Editor: Jamie Gibbs TLDR: The team use a massive D20, a wardrobe full of adventuring fear, and a magically sealed door to rescue the innkeeper's husband and escape.

This very special episode of The Infinite Escape Room is brought to you from Jamie's house in Wales... ...Or rather, Year 10 work experience at a local hospital! A somewhat universal experience for British kids. Their surgeon mentor promptly injects himself with anaesthetic, collapses on the operating table, and leaves them locked in the surgery room with only one way out: perform a laparoscopic cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) to escape. It's only a puzzling podcast, we're not saving lives here. Or are we? Puzzle Maestro: Mike Collins Solvers: Jamie Gibbs, Emma Bailey Episode Art: Dom Jordan Editor: Mike Collins TLDR: The solvers perform a gallbladder removal using surgical tools including a laparoscope and forceps and solve a puzzle with musical notes.   Come and chat to us on Facebook, Instagram, BlueSky and LinkedIn.

The black box recording of our faltering stumble through some of Nottingham's finest Escape Rooms. Jamie, Mike, Mairi and Jon are here to separate the wheat from the chaff, and leave you nothing but the finest flour to bake your Escape Bread with. Or, we would've done, if things hadn't gone a teeny bit wrong. With discussions and spoiler-free reviews of our recent TIER trip to Nottingham, UK to play six escape rooms: Robin of Lockskey, Escapologic Curio, Escapologic The Butcher, Escapologic Immaterium, Escapologic Monuments, Cave Escape Carfax, Cave Escape There's also a little chat about Warhammer World, the site of pilgrimage for wargaming nerds across the globe.

In this episode of Retro Titans, Phil sits down with Sam Dyer, founder of Bitmap Books — the publisher behind some of the most beautifully crafted retro gaming books ever produced. From the Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum to the NeoGeo and N64, Bitmap Books has become synonymous with premium retro gaming preservation, celebrating the art, culture and history of the games we grew up with. But Sam's journey started much like many of ours — with a beige computer under the TV and a lifelong fascination with games. Together, Phil and Sam explore how nostalgia, graphic design and a love of gaming history combined to create one of the most respected retro gaming publishers in the world today. In this episode, we explore: 1️⃣ The origins of Bitmap Books How a passion project inspired by the Commodore 64 grew into a globally recognised retro gaming publisher. 2️⃣ Designing books for retro fans Why presentation, print quality and visual storytelling matter just as much as the words on the page. 3️⃣ Preserving gaming history From arcade classics and point-and-click adventures to SNK and Neo Geo, Sam explains why these games deserve to be documented and celebrated. 4️⃣ Nostalgia, community and modern retro culture Why retro gaming continues to resonate with new generations, and how the meaning of "retro" keeps evolving. Sam also shares stories about launching books through Kickstarter, working with legendary developers and publishers, creating collector's editions with built-in sound effects, and why games like Sensible Soccer, Monkey Island and Metal Slug still matter today.

Very nearly the quickest solve we've ever had!   In the final regular episode from our Nottingham AirBnB recording, Jon takes the helm and delivers, without notes, what he believes to be a deceptively simple yet fiendish death trap puzzle...only for Jamie to figure it out within seconds. It isn't the fastest solve we've had but it came damn close. Puzzle Maestro: Jon Saunders Solvers: Mike Collins, Jamie Gibbs, Mairi Nolan Episode Art: Dom Jordan Editor: Jon Saunders TLDR: The solvers find themselves inside a suspended cage, accompanied by dozens of rats. To leave means death, but the only means of escape is outside the cage.   Come and chat to us on Facebook, Instagram, BlueSky and LinkedIn.

En este programa de La Fosa del Rancor analizamos el final de temporada de Maul: Shadow Lord, repasando los episodios que nos habían quedado pendientes:  Episodio 7: La llama del olvido. Episodio 8: El miedo que acecha. Episodio 9: Insólitos aliados. Episodio 10: El Señor Oscuro. Cuatro episodios que cierran una serie que ha conseguido algo muy difícil hoy en día: unir a fandom y crítica bajo un mismo consenso. Una producción con una factura técnica sublime, una dirección impecable, una banda sonora brutal y un tramo final sencillamente increíble, que nos deja con ganas desesperadas de más. Maul, Janix, Talon y la familia Lawson tendrán que afrontar su momento más oscuro. ¿Qué precio estamos dispuestos a pagar para sobrevivir? ¿Hasta dónde puede llegar alguien cuando el miedo lo consume todo? Porque en estos episodios descubriremos que, a veces, el enemigo de mi enemigo… es mi amigo. Los protagonistas se verán obligados a realizar una insólita alianza para intentar plantar cara a una fuerza imparable formada por Darth Vader, el Undécimo Hermano y Marrok, en un tramo final donde el canon pisa el acelerador y no deja respirar. Y sí… ha llegado el momento. Vader vs Maul. Aquella pregunta que muchos nos hicimos en 1999 por fin tiene respuesta. Durante años imaginamos este enfrentamiento imposible, debatimos quién merecía ocupar el lugar dominante del Lado Oscuro… y ahora el canon ha hablado. ¿Conseguirá la familia Lawson escapar de Janix de una pieza? Nos dejamos seducir por el Lado Oscuro para afrontar este desenlace… y queremos hacerlo junto a vosotros. Eso sí, sin olvidar nunca nuestra isla. Nuestro querido “Universo Expandido”. Ese rincón perdido en lo más profundo del Caribe, entre Melee Island y Phatt Island, a la derecha de Monkey Island, donde el almirante Thrawn sigue siendo EL GRAN ALMIRANTE. Y atentos, porque si quieres saber a qué mítico videojuego de la saga homenajea en varias ocasiones Maul durante este último arco… te lo contamos en el programa. Además, hablaremos de nuestras cábalas y teorías sobre las posibles claves de la futura temporada 2 de Shadow Lord, intentando descifrar hacia dónde puede dirigirse la historia tras este explosivo final. The Mandalorian & Grogu, May the 4th y Star Wars Celebration 2027. También hablamos de la futura Star Wars Celebration 2027 y de cómo fue la auténtica guerra galáctica para conseguir entradas el pasado 6 de mayo. Repasamos además la premiere celebrada en Madrid el pasado 30 de abril de la nueva película de la saga “The Mandalorian a Grogu”, donde varios miembros del podcast pudieron asistir al evento y ver los primeros 27 minutos de la película.  Sin spoilers, compartirán sus sensaciones y todo lo vivido en la alfombra verde. ¿Tiene lo que promete? ¿es un capítulo largo con presupuesto? Además, dedicaremos unos minutos a hablar del cada vez más inexistente "4 de mayo", el día de la Fuerza, que este año ha pasado prácticamente desapercibido. Más allá de un vídeo del abuelito Lucas y un montaje promocional con varios actores diciendo "Que la Fuerza te acompañe", la sensación general es que una fecha antes especial para el fandom ha tenido muy poco impacto galáctico. Grabado en la noche del 8 de mayo, montado y editado por Paco Villa. En este programa participan: Ferrán Lloret “El Arqueólogo”, Chema Mansilla, desde la revista 3DJuegos, más “Mansillita” que nunca. Y un saludo final de nuestro padrino, Jorge Foley. Todo ello dirigido, como siempre, en clave fosera de humor por la dupla Josemi y Paco Villa. Análisis, lore, Universo Expandido, humor, referencias, teorías… y seguramente alguna cosa que se nos haya escapado por el camino. Pero siempre desde el cariño, el respeto y la pasión que esta saga merece. Nos vemos la próxima semana desde la convención “Power of the Force” en Colonia, Alemania. Y poco después en las salas de los cines con “The Mandalorian and Grogu” a partir del 21 de mayo. Un podcast hecho por fans, para fans. Que la Fuerza os acompañe siempre. ♥ ¡Dale, Pacoto! ♥ Comunidad Únete al canal de WhatsApp de La Fosa del Rancor para seguir todas nuestras novedades.

Somewhere in this room there's a secret! Go get up and find it! Or as I like to call it: The one in which Jamie hosts an audio escape room set in an airBNB, whilst recording from the airBNB, in which we have to get up and find actual hidden things in the airBNB. It's airBNBception in here. Will the solvers untie the knots in Notts in time? (K)not likely! Puzzle Maestro: Jamie Gibbs Solvers: Mike Collins, Jon Saunders, Mairi Nolan Episode Art: Dom Jordan Editor: Jamie Gibbs TLDR: The solvers find a physical locked box covered in knots, and have to solve the puzzles to open the box and recover the secret wine.     Come and chat to us on Facebook, Instagram, BlueSky and LinkedIn.

Hey - you think I got a bad attitude? No, YOU have a bad attitude! We apologize but today the boys are dealing with 'tude from their kids and how they manage it. Are they hangry? Hormony? Something in between? Before that they go deep into the Dungeons with a spotlight on recent TV shows (like the Pitt and Shrinking) to old adventure games (like Monkey Island). All of this, updates on the MCU Rewatch and The Witcher 3, Ryan REPLACED his PC, and Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer too.

Join us deep within Robin's Hole, where it's time to pull up a cozy armchair and discuss this week's pubisode topic: When should escape rooms retire? We reflect on some of the recent real-life escape rooms we've played together in Nottingham and discuss the lifecycle of an escape room. How long should an escape room be open for? When should it be updated? When should it be retired? And how might an escape room's life be increased? If you're an owner, when do you retire your rooms? As always, here are your recommendations for this month. Jamie - Tears of Metal (videogame), think Dynasty Warriors, a comic book art style but set in medieval Scotland. Mairi - The Fall (film), a trippy fairy tale of an adventure film. Jon - The documentaries of Adam Curtis, and in particular, HyperNormalisation. Mike - Knitting!

And I quote: "It keeps your naughty hands busy" Hosts: Mike Collins, Mairi Nolan, Jon Saunders, Jamie Gibbs Editor: Jamie Gibbs   Come and chat to us on Facebook, Instagram, BlueSky and LinkedIn.

The solvers find themselves in a series of strange caves deep underneath Nottingham. But they quickly realise these are no ordinary spaces as they seem to shift and transform on a whim. Jamie, how big is the space? Mike, where is the door located? Jon, what are the walls made of? The size of a key or the size of a football pitch? The door is on the ceiling and of course the walls are made of purrfectly normal materials. Right. Right?!

*blip blip blip beeeep* Somewhere in the labyrinthine corridors of a recording studio, the solvers find themselves back and with a bigger challenge than ever: Find the cassettes and solve the puzzles to put on the ultimate BBC Radio 4 "kitchen drama". What else could possibly save the BBC from it's ten trillion pound debt, afterall? Also Jack Foley is locked in a cupboard. This is a room which just proves that in the end, everything really is just foley.

Sections played: Up to Swamp Dungeon Issues covered: making it feel different, long-winded save mechanics, interrupting your play, expecting it to be okay to let the world end, the threatening moon, how games hold up, the usual strategy for reuse: more of the same, making the main mechanic out of a minor Ocarina mechanic, recontextualizing models and similar locations, the groom mask and the new interactions, constraining locations you can reach, the audio mix, being able to control for when certain events happen or not, being unclear on whether the water is poison, searching high and low for a bottle, a non-Nintendo moment, implying that the player could have been prepared, looking forward to more masks, reusing your engine, platform architecture converging, changing goals requiring changing programs, a podcast guidebook, Tim's annotated notes, finally having a list, recency bias, convergence of mechanics in AAA games, a story of a dev inspired by events and the podcast, asset flips, Majora's Mask inspiration.  Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: CalamityNolan, Outer Wilds, Melancholia, Stranger Things, Wind Waker, Ultima, Hitman, GameCube, Oddberry Games, Vitor, Eye of the Beholder (series), Doom (series), Fallout (series), Monkey Island (series), Warren Spector, Origin Systems, Apple ][, PlayStation, Xbox, Unreal, Republic Commando, Call of Duty, Medal of Honor, Mystery Dip, Carlos, Dark Souls, Deadly Premonition, Hollow Knight, Ubisoft, Anthony Vaccaro, Synersteel Studios, Eric Heimberg, Sandra Powers, Nicholas Vaccaro, Maria Vaccaro, Valley of Shadow, What Remains of Edith Finch, The Witness, The Talos Principle, Raymond, Drew, David Lynch, Takashi Tezuka, Twin Peaks, Link's Awakening, Dwarf Fortress, Mors, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia.  Next time: More Majora's Mask Links: Valley of Shadow via Steam  Twitch: timlongojr and twinsunscorp YouTube Discord DevGameClub@gmail.com mailto://devgameclub@gmail.com

Idag gästar Pontus Wittenmark som berättar om varför han valde den narrativa peka-klicka-genren framför allt annat. Under Kickstarter-kampanjen fick demot spridning tack vare Thimbleweed Park-teamet och Revolution Software - och det visade sig att Ron Gilbert, skaparen av Monkey Island och Maniac Mansion, hade backat projektet.Vi dyker ner i skapandeprocesset bakom spelet - hur han tänker kring balansen mellan pussel och story, varför han föredrar pussel som hänger ihop med narrativet framför insprängda minispel som påminner mer om Sudoku, och hur han använder Ron Gilberts “Puzzle Dependency Chart” för att hålla koll på strukturen. Vi pratar också om verktyget Ink, ett skriptspråk för interaktiv fiction, och hur det låter Pontus jobba i ett kreativt flöde utan att behöva öppna Visual Studio.Trevlig lyssning!Har du tankar om Spelskaparna, känner dig sugen på att delta i ett avsnitt eller kanske vill visa upp ett spel som du jobbar på - kom in på Spelskaparnas discord. Där har mysig stämning skapats och ett gäng utvecklare chattar om stort och smått.

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we continue our series on Ultima IV. We talk about the boat, we talk about dungeons (a tiny bit), we deep dive into NPCs and consequences, we talk about the quests and how everything is in the world, and answer some listener email. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: More of Ultima IV (Much more, in B's case) Issues covered: revisiting locations and finding new things, a game that does a lot with a little, everything existing in the world, getting to know the world, NPCs sharing sprites and being hard to remember, getting a ship and fighting your way on, broadside combat, dying to a waterspout, wanting to search the oceans, badly simulating tacking, riding a horse, being interrupted in any location, trying to replicate the tabletop experience, feeling like a "yes" game, whether what you do matters, can you be a thief, watering down a morality system, having a limited palette of options at any one time, layering frosting, taking out the friction and icky feeling, the niche audience of some RPGs, taking elements from older games and bringing them into modern games, asking questions of the player who is also the character, avoiding the uncanny valley, an aside into adventure mode, the horseshoe effect on NPCs, reaching the limits of what the human brain can contemplate, an aside into Dunbar's number, facing the same challenges, chunking chapters, feeling the anxiety of there being too much, coalescing your notes from time to time, the telescope moment and seeing the map, the lack of loot, preparing to do things, validating your assumptions, having to revisit everywhere, the friction of Pikmin, getting good controllers, handheld mode, the Wavebird, bouncing off character creation, character creation we've liked, wanting a story to wrap around a more specific character, the generic hero, having fun with a character creator, a freeing character creator. Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: Final Fantasy (series), Gold Box (series), Eye of the Beholder, Outer Wilds, The Witcher (series), Beowulf, Dungeons & Dragons, Wizardry (series), BioWare, Mass Effect, BioShock, Dishonored, CD Project Red, Cyberpunk 2077, Baldur's Gate III, Thief, Robin Hood, VtM Bloodlines, Undertale, Dark Souls, Land of the Lost, Dwarf Fortress, Planescape: Torment, Metroid / Castlevania, Richard Garriott, Sasha, Pikmin, Nintendo, Shigeru Miyamoto, Switch, PlayStation, Analog Pocket, Ashton Herrmann, Monkey Island, Wing Commander, Morrowind, Fallout 3, Dragon Age: Origins, Bethesda Game Studios, Blizzard, World of Warcraft, Diablo (series), Metal Gear Solid V, Hideo Kojima, Saint's Row IV, Call of Cthulhu, Asher, Cuphead, KyleAndError, Hitman, FFSZilla, MGS: VR Missions, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers, Mark Garcia.  Note: Because Ultima IV has very little music to speak of, I will be substituting music from later in the series in the openings to these episodes TTDS: 38:30 Links: Majuular Ultima IV video recommended by Chris  Next time: Finish Ultima IV Twitch: timlongojr and twinsunscorp YouTube Discord  DevGameClub@gmail.com

🎮 Rejugando | Aquellos Maravillosos Años: 1997 y 2005 Invitado: Vijuda (Super Woden GP / Super Woden Rally Edge) En este programa de Rejugando, videojuegos desde todos los ángulos, viajamos a dos años clave en la vida de Vijuda (Víctor Justo da Cruz): 1997 y 2005, repasando cómo esos momentos marcaron su forma de entender los videojuegos… y cómo todo eso desemboca en Super Woden Rally Edge, su último y exitoso lanzamiento. 🕹️ 1997: cuando un juego te cambia para siempre 1997 es el año en el que Vijuda descubre Final Fantasy VII, su primer JRPG, y el título que le hace entender que un videojuego puede atraparte por su historia, no solo por la acción. Primer contacto real con la narrativa en videojuegos El salto brutal de NES a PlayStation Descubrimiento del valor de los mundos, personajes y emociones Inicio de una obsesión por Square / Squaresoft y los JRPG clásicos Además, se repasa un 1997 legendario en la historia del videojuego: Final Fantasy VII, Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, GTA, Carmageddon, Star Fox 64, Monkey Island, Quake II, Turok… Un año irrepetible que definió una generación. 🏎️ De jugador a creador: coches, arcade y personalidad Aunque el JRPG marca su sensibilidad, Vijuda siempre ha tenido claro su amor por los juegos de conducción: Su primer videojuego fue Rad Racer (curiosamente de Squaresoft) Fascinación por los recreativos y la conducción arcade Rechazo al “macarreo” tipo Need for Speed: respeto por el coche y la conducción Todo eso acaba cristalizando años después en la saga Super Woden, heredera directa de los arcades clásicos… pero con identidad propia. 🎵 Música, punk rock y Woden Tocaba en un grupo de punk rock llamado Woden Muchas canciones del grupo acabaron reconvertidas en la música de sus juegos El nombre Woden se mantiene como homenaje personal y emocional La música no es un añadido: es parte del ADN de sus juegos. 🏁 Super Woden Rally Edge: éxito, miedo y superación Apenas 10 días después del lanzamiento, Super Woden Rally Edge iguala en reseñas a Super Woden GP2… que llevaba años publicado. Miedo real al lanzamiento (algo que nunca desaparece) Cambio arriesgado: abandonar circuitos y centrarse en rallies Inspiraciones como Art of Rally, pero manteniendo su estilo arcade Éxito inesperado en mercados como Estados Unidos y Japón Vijuda explica cómo el cambio de cámara y enfoque ha permitido: Mantener a su público habitual Atraer jugadores más jóvenes Ampliar el alcance del juego Un desarrollador indie… completamente solo Aprendió a programar de forma autodidacta Hace diseño, programación, parte del arte y música La soledad del desarrollo independiente pasa factura Dificultades para gestionar comunidades, toxicidad y exposición pública Easter eggs, obsesión por el detalle y no saber parar Todos sus juegos están llenos de secretos y guiños ocultos Algunos tan escondidos que ni los jugadores los encuentran Reconoce la dificultad de saber cuándo cerrar un proyecto El perfeccionismo casi le hace rehacer Rally Edge entero Un programa honesto, profundo y muy humano, donde entendemos cómo los videojuegos que jugamos de jóvenes acaban definiendo los juegos que creamos de adultos. 1997 explica al jugador. 2005 explica al creador. Y Super Woden, GP y Rally Edge es la suma de todo eso.

Composer Ken Allen shaped the soundscape of an entire Sierra era, from Space Quest to Kings Quest, and that unmistakable Sierra logo fanfare burned into every retro-gamer's brain. Now he's back with a full new soundtrack for SpaceVenture, and we go deep into how it all came together. In this episode, Ken walks through the craft behind his new score, the evolution from MT-32 to modern orchestral libraries, the stories behind iconic Sierra tracks, the surprising inspirations for SpaceVenture's music, and what it's like to reunite with the Two Guys from Andromeda after decades. Expect anecdotes, technical insight, nostalgia, and plenty of behind-the-scenes lore from one of the genre's defining composers. Mangia! Some corrections. - Beats Per Minute (not beats per second - that wouldbe crazy). - Composer for Silent Running was Peter Schickle, not Jerry Goldsmith. - Kazoo Orchestra is on the 2001 Theme and synth was used Blue Danube.

We had a great week, and so we decided we all need nice things, which means it's time to just talk about the stuff we love in romance. We're talking about our favorite microtropes in romance novels--the things that give us pure shots of joy. There's all sorts of stuff in here: contemporaries, historicals, paranormals, mafia, hockey, tattoos, piercings, kilts, families getting their comeuppance, and much much more.

This week Anna and Paul played Quest For Glory 2: Trial By Fire and as per the rules of podcasting, they're going to talk into microphones, at you, for quite some time—largely staying on topic while occasionally wandering into a narrative side quest, as to create a more layered listening experience for you, the listener.

The Witching Hour is upon us in this Halloween special, it's time to pull up a rickety, mouldy stool at the near-empty pub, the Brush, Nose and Bone. In this episode, we're joined by a master of horror, Keith Dozois of USB Escape to discuss all things horror in escape rooms. How does horror affect puzzles? What are our best (and worst) experiences with horror? And how do you make horror good in an escape room? As always, here are your recommendations for this month. Jamie - Ice Nine Kills (band), a metalcore whose recent output has been centred around iconic horror films, and was a big inspiration for Jamie's episode this arc. Mairi - Strange Jigsaws (game by fleb), a short digital puzzle game about solving 50 or so rather strange jigsaws. The prequel (20 Small Mazes) is free, if you want to see what sort of thing you're getting yourself into. Jon - Never Let Me Go (novel by Kazuo Ishiguro), a slow gentle book about a trio of young folks in the British countryside but they attend a very unusual school and are on an unusual life trajectory. Keith - Scarlet Envelope for their fantastic puzzle games (yay), and Curios' Albrecht Manor Letters, an epistolary horror experience through writing letters. Two fantastic Canada-based game creators.

The Infinite Escape Room is a comedy escape room podcast where a group of friends make and solve audio escape rooms for one another.

Safely returned from their doorless room, with a hairbrush in hand, the team are left with only one VHS tape, adorned with images of graves. It sends them to a London Garden Park, with a curious statue guarding the gate, it's amazing what they call Art these days...

Anna hits the floor at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo, or as she and her late friend Roberta always called it, the PGRE. It's a weekend overflowing with nostalgia, laughter, and the kind of serendipity that only happens when you pack decades of gaming history under one roof. This episode brings you the voices and moments that defined the show: Al Lowe sharing stories from his Sierra days, Lori and Corey Cole reminiscing about Quest for Glory, George Sanger talking music and memory, and dozens of creators, collectors, and fans who keep the golden age of adventure games alive. From the FMV Museum and the Error 47 concert to spontaneous hallway interviews and late-night reflections, this is a trip through time and community. Whether you were there in person or living vicariously through your headphones, you'll feel the hum of the crowd, the passion of the fans, and the unmistakable presence of Roberta woven throughout it all.

After missing their one-flight-a-day from the Australian desert, the gang decide to shelter for the night in an abandoned shack deep in the outback. Inside they find a VHS player, and three tapes. Last week the team tried to play a VHS tape and were transported to a sinister sewer to face a laughing clown, this week they find themselves stood in a room with no windows or doors, lit only by the pale glow of a television showing static. Until it doesn't. With 999 possible channels for the team to uncover, this won't be an easy task.

After missing their one-flight-a-day from the Australian desert, the gang decide to shelter for the night in an abandoned shack deep in the outback. Inside they find a VHS player, and three tapes. But this is no ordinary VHS player, as the moment the tape goes in the world shimmers in static and we find ourselves transported to... A sewer. There's distant crying coming from the darkness and a creepy red balloon hovering in the air. But there's no time for clowning around when there's a puzzle to solve. If you're playing along with the puzzle, check out this visual asset when Jon finds the compass.

This time around we talk about Lost in Adventure: The Labyrinth.  It's a light point-and-click style adventure that will feel familiar to folks that played Cantaloop or video games like Leisure Suit Larry, Monkey Island and all those old games.  This game feels like those but quite a bit lighter. Lost in Adventure: The Labyrinth (BGG)

With just twenty two minutes and thirty seconds remaining before our flight from Australia Airport leaves, the team have no choice but to solve Jon's puzzle puzzle at the crossroads. Somewhere off Australia Road (which by the way, is the road in Australia, in case you were wondering), the airport awaits... But which way? "Struth Ruth, Bruce is coming babe."
