TCW Podcast Episode 228 - PopCap Games   PopCap Games was initially overlooked by the larger gaming industry due to its focus on fun, well-designed, and polished casual games. Their first major hit, Bejeweled, became a consistent source of income, allowing PopCap to invest time in developing new titles. This led to the creation of Peggle, which helped solidify PopCap's reputation, particularly after developers at Valve became hooked on the game's deeper skill-based mechanics and puzzles. The success of Bejeweled and Peggle continued with their ports to the iPod and, eventually, the iPad, further expanding PopCap's popularity. This growth culminated in the release of Plants vs. Zombies, which debuted on PC before being adapted for iOS. The game's seamless touchscreen integration made it a standout app for the newly launched iPad. As the gaming industry evolved, PopCap struck a deal with EA, which acquired the company, leading to the departure of its founders over the following years.   Attack Retrieve Capture: https://alchetron.com/Attack-Retrieve-Capture Shariki Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMwGy1fv41g Play Dimond Mine: https://www.crazygames.com/game/diamond-mine Bejeweled: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvLtaf1PFVM Palm OS - PDA Gaming: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nfg4YIoYas TCW 122 - A Casual World Part 1: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/a-casual-world-part-1/ TCW 123 - A Casual World Part 2: https://podcast.theycreateworlds.com/e/a-casual-world-part-2/ Zuma Deluxe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwpuOhuVnnQ Alchemy Deluxe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p902uQ_y3r4 Play Alchemy Deluxe: https://archive.org/details/alchemy-deluxe Bookworm Deluxe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FA1NSyldUQ8 The Oral History of PopCap: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwzxWLonObo Burnout 3 Takedown: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6vHTQv9JHY Peggle Deluxe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlnieE-h6k8 Peggle Extreme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAKLiepJDrM Peggle Extreme (Steam - Free): https://store.steampowered.com/app/3483/Peggle_Extreme/ Bejeweled (iPod): https://www.youtube.com/shorts/7iHTM0ryWm0 Peggle (iPod): https://www.youtube.com/shorts/qhWSm0zNSrk Insaniquarium Deluxe: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U04weIAra20 Plants VS Zombies (PC): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XENla8M3910 Plants VS Zombies (iPad): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvopYLzwb90 PopCap Games on Internet Archive: https://archive.org/search?query=creator%3A%22PopCap+Games%22   New episodes are on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: feedback@theycreateworlds.com  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theycreateworlds Alex's Video Game History Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com Alex's book, published Dec 2019, is available at CRC Press and at major on-line retailers: http://bit.ly/TCWBOOK1     Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.

We have a special episode this week hosted by Ben and Norah!  After dispensing with the formalities, Ben has a great interview with journalist Lukas Eggen from the Las Vegas Review-Journal to share.  Lukas has a new Kickstarter project that he is working on that will hopefully reinvigorate games journalism by going back to a traditional investigative reporting philosophy… “Game On!”  Ben's interview style is very conversational, but he does have a couple of thought provoking questions up his sleeve.  Following that, Ben and Norah talk about their experiences with the game Quilts and Cats of Calico from Monster Couch (available now on Steam for the PC and Mac).  Please be patient with Ben as he is still workshopping his “on air” review style. 00:00:02 - Tucson is just okay according to Norah, defending Ben, and on to the interview! 00:02:09 - A warmup conversation with Lukas, and what we are playing or looking forward to 00:06:18 - Lukas' first review code, thoughts on KtJL, and what gamers really want 00:09:23 - Ben's first review code, PopCap beta testing, and Lukas' disappointment sets in  00:12:06 - Lukas' start in journalism, gaming trajectory, and current position at LVR-J 00:17:29 - Journalistic integrity past and present, cable TV, entertainment, and bias in news 00:20:18 - Talking about the “Game On!” mission statement and what it means to Lukas 00:24:00 - Physical vs. online news pipelines, doing the work, and old fashioned news views  00:27:05 - Hat choices, Lukas' beat, game industry focus, and gaming news diversity 00:28:54 - Does Lukas consider himself a member of the video games industry? 00:30:40 - Ben's suggestion to sell magazine subscriptions, and Lukas on meeting Greg Miller 00:33:19 - Go to Kickstarter for more information on Lukas' not so secret project “Game On!” 00:35:01 - Norah's thoughts, interview styles, and Ben thanks David Letterman  00:36:02 - The embargo has lifted, Ben's review formula, and the audiovisuals of QaCoC 00:39:02 - Cat behaviors, taco costume, creating cats, and the Calico game mechanics 00:41:10 - Quilt tessellations, game pieces, gameplay loop, and ways to score points in Calico 00:45:40 - No smallpox, 10-15 minutes per, playing online, and story mode is underwhelming 00:49:41 - QUILT WAR, “Pass and Play,” easy to learn difficult to master, and game complexity 00:52:23 - How life works, text size can't be changed, and Norah asks about the age to play 00:57:32 - Norah's thoughts on the tutorial, thank you to Monster Couch, and closing remarks Check out the “LAN Parties” podcast on your favorite podcast service or listen to it here… https://www.reviewjournal.com/podcasts/lan-parties/ To help Lukas get his “Game On!” magazine fully funded go here... https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2103037101/game-on-2 As of the publishing date of this podcast there are only 26 more days to go, so if you are interested in supporting a fresh perspective in games journalism, please consider supporting Lukas in his endeavor!  For all of Lukas Eggen's social media and journalism stuff…  https://linktr.ee/LukasEggen Follow Two Vague on… Our website: https://www.twovaguepodcast.com  On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/two_vague_podcast On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@twovaguepodcast On (ex-)Twitter: https://twitter.com/TwoVaguePodcast For show appearance and other inquiries, contact us at... twovaguepodcast@gmail.com   A BIG thank you to Krzysiek for Monster Couch for providing us with our FIRST review code!  Ben's Review of “Quilts and Cats of Calico” The FORMULA… Audiovisuals (AV) + Game Mechanics (GM) + Story and Narrative (SN) = a video game experience Ben's importance percentages = 20% AV + 35% GM + 45% SN AV - Audiovisuals - (8) - The game is very cute and definitely fits into the cosy, country home category of graphic design which absolutely compliments the game perfectly.  Likewise, the top notch quality songs and background music fit the theme and mood, but I would have liked more than 3-4 songs total.  The cats that roam around and fall asleep at the top of the screen, but they will sometimes intersect with decorative items placed around the game board.  It would have been neat if the cats would knock stuff down like “normal” cats do.  You can also create and DRESS UP your own cats which was the FIRST thing I did with my review copy. Mango and/or Bash will join me in game while they are likely napping in real life.  This may sound ridiculous to a non-cat lover, but I wish there were more pattern and body customization options, but it's good enough for government work. GM - Game Mechanics - (9) -  For the details on the game rules and gameplay loop check out the Calico rules which can be found here… https://www.alderac.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Calico-Rules.pdf .  The whole concept of the board game is very well thought out, so the video game adaptation works wonderfully it this area.  Game rounds are about 10 min per human player, which also hits a sweet spot for me.  The scoring system can be a little more advanced in the board game (with achievements), but they keep it simple here.   SN - Story / Narrative - (5) - The story mode is NOT the high point of the game, and the story dialog is barely worth paying attention to.  In addition to playing the game against a single AI opponent, there are also missions that will require you to fill your quilt board with a limited number of tiles, or fulfill certain button or color goals, but there really is nothing very compelling about this mode.  I'm not entirely sure how to make it more essential to the game.  Perhaps if there were avatar or cat customization options given as rewards for completing story missions it might be worth playing. UP PASS AND PLAY - In addition to online play, there is a local “pass and play” option if you wish to select more than one human player for the 4 available players. Calico is one of those amazing “easy to learn, difficult to master” games that is complex enough to hold your attention, but not so much as to alienate players. Simple yet fun gameplay with option to play 3 player games with online matchmaking DOWN There is no setting to change the text size.  I tried to show the game to Norah on my MacBook, but the goal tile description text was too small for her to read. The 3-4 background songs do get repetitive after playing for a while The graphic style of the main game vs the story mode don't compliment each other, and the  story mode is not as robust or necessary to play as I would have hoped. DO BUY… if you want a family friendly strategy game.  Heck buy the physical version too while you are at it!  It would make a wonderful addition to any game night! DO PLAY… if you are a fan of board games; Calico and it's video twin are wonderful, well crafted game experiences. Ben's FINAL VERDICT aka the MATH on Quilts and Cats of Calico!
 (8 * .20) + (9 * .35) + (5 * .45) = 7 out of 10… things.   References, Links, and Tags What's Good Games - https://whatsgoodgames.com/ Kinda Funny - https://linktr.ee/kindafunny Calico Designer Kevin Russ on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/kevinruss/ Calico Illustrator Beth Solo on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/bethsobel/ Check out the catalogues of boardgames from AEG and Flatout Games… https://www.alderac.com/ AND https://www.flatout.games/ Monster Couch's “Quilts and Cats of Calico” has been released as of March 5th! https://www.monstercouch.com/quilts-and-cats-of-calico/ https://store.steampowered.com/app/1993180/Quilts_and_Cats_of_Calico/ #Podbean #DIYPodcast #ApplePodcast #VideoGames #Trivia #Comedy #Talkshow #2VP #TwoVaguePodcast #Calico #QuiltsAndCatsOfCalico #MonsterCouch #LukasEggen #LANParties #LasVegasReviewJournal #Kickstarter #GameOn

This week on The Exit: When Jason co-founded gaming start-up PopCap, never in his wildest dreams did he imagine exiting to EA for $650MM. The business started out as three guys creating games to sell back to the big gaming companies, but they quickly had to rethink that business model. The collapse of web games, combined with the dawn of Ecommerce in 2000, forced PopCap into selling their games online and business boomed. After 11 years, they decided to exit and found themselves at the center of a bidding war. Listen to find out why he believes the bidding war led to a successful exit for them. Jason founded PopCap Games with John Vechey and Brian Fiete in 2000, where they designed and produced games such as Bejeweled, Peggle, Zuma, and Plants vs Zombies. PopCap Games was sold to EA in 2011, and Jason is currently working on new games at Blue Wizard Digital, an indie game studio based in Comox, BC.

For every video game they will discuss its past (history of the game, developers story, and fun facts), present (game play, game review and strategy), and future (will there be a sequel?? A movie?) BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE… Every game also comes with a challenge presented by the host that chose the game. If the challenge is not completed then whoever failed has to do a video game rap!

Leave your front door open and your podcast unguarded, Welcome back to NOCLIP Pocket this week! Today, we’re going to be talking about Plants vs. Zombies, arguably PopCap’s breakout game, a casual tower defense game with a distinct theme. But I probably don’t need to explain what this game is to you, because statistically you’ve probably played, seen, or at least heard of it before given how crazy popular it was. Revisiting the game after so many years really puts into context what about the game made it popular and how we’ve advanced in design space and that historical context makes up a lot of the discussion this week. We’re going to talk about casual tower defense game design and how the game wants to make you feel good, the attractive visual design and presentation and we go on and on about how free mobile games have become a detestable quagmire of unacceptable advertising. Thank you for listening to us shatter our nostalgia this week! We’re trying to balance our pocket episodes between smaller titles that don’t take a long time to play and ones that can actually be played on a device that fits in your pocket, and this game is pretty emblematic of the latter. However, next time we’re sampling a little more of the former and talking about The Unfinished Swan, from the developers of What Remains of Edith Finch, so be sure to check back then.

 The Legendary games designer Glenn Drover Joins Phillip and Vic for a chat about all things gaming.     http://www.forbiddengames.net/ Glenn Drover Glenn Drover was the founder and president of Eagle Games, Inc. from 2000 – 2006. During that time he ran the company while also designing and publishing several premium board games, including Railroad Tycoon, Age of Mythology, Conquest of the Empire 2, Sid Meier's Civilization, Attack!, Napoleon in Europe, War! Age of Imperialism, The American Civil War, and others. In 2007 under his private Tropical Games label, Glenn also designed and published Age of Empires III: The Age of Discovery, which enjoyed great commercial and critical success. In addition to board game design and publishing, Glenn has also had a successful career as a sales executive in the electronic gaming industry. Starting in 1990, Glenn had the opportunity to work with Sid Meier and Bruce Shelley at MicroProse, and during the following years, participated in the growth of some of the finest game publishers in the industry, including Maxis, Activision, and PopCap (where he met Jason).

Popcap are probably best known for a string of browser and mobile games that helped define their respective genres. Among their most successful series is Plants vs. Zombies, which has spawned several spin-offs and sequels since it first released in 2009.It was also one of the games that established Laura Shigihara as a formidable musical talent. She provided such accomplished work to the game that Peter McConnell, who took over composing duties from PVZ2, has kept it firmly in mind for every sequel since. Because of that, the series has carved out its own distinctive feel, and one that expertly matches the cartoonish fun on screen.In this episode, following on from her first short appearance in this series' Minecraft episode, Laura Shigihara returns to the show for her first of two lengthier conversations. Additionally, Peter McConnell makes his Sound Test debut ahead of an expansive LucasArts podcast in 2020.

Jeff has spent a the past few years working for Popcap and EA, but is perhaps best known for his long tenure on GFW/CGW magazine, and as the host of GFW Radio, one of the very first videogame podcasts and certainly one of my favourites. He is also the nicest guy, and an excellent guest. We talk about Jeff's delinquent youth in a pinball gang, how to balance marriage and Hearthstone, bonding with his daughter in WoW, how awful it is to have to write about modems and how amazing it is to write about games. We wax lyrical about Half Life and Doom, wonder whether stories in games matter, think about the impact of podcasting and share thoughts on the latest Hearthstone expansion. This was a treat.

Take a journey with us back to the ye olden days of 2009 when the war between casual and hardcore gamers raged. While it would take many years for the conflict to settle to a low simmer, one game seemed to unite the two sides in harmony; a tower defense game with retro roots, a sunny disposition, and a quirky sense of humor. Plants vs. Zombies catapulted developer PopCap Games to indie stardom and became their fastest selling game to date, leveraging a position in the then-curated Steam store to appeal to the hardcore crowd and its inherent lightheartedness to bring in the more casually oriented gamers. Almost ten years later, should Plants vs. Zombies be considered one of the best games of all-time?  Outro music: The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past 'Fushigina Forest' by Laura Shigihara (http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02329) You can follow the show on Twitter: @BestGamesPeriod Or download the podcast from Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/thebestgamesperiod Don't forget to sign up for Extra Life to help sick and injured kids in hospitals around the US and Canada by playing games!

Au programme cette semaine, on commence avec la réjouissante folie de Popcap qui réussit à faire évoluer son univers de Plat Vs Zombies avec ce deuxième épisode de Garden Warfare qui tient toutes ses promesses. Mais le gros morceau de l'émission, c'est bien sûr The Division, superproduction revendiquée d'Ubisoft. C'est grand, c'est beau, mais est-ce qu'il vaut vraiment toutes les heures qu'il demande ?

Schräg, skurril, witzig, einfach einzigartig! Der erste Teil wurde zum Überraschungshit. Zuerst belächelt, doch dann überrollte die tolle Spielbarkeit und die schrägen Modi das Shooter-Lager. Für den zweiten Teil hat sich PopCap noch einiges mehr ausgedacht. Es gibt 14 spielbare Charakterklassen und über 100 spielbare Pflanzen und Zombies. Dabei verfügen die Charakterklassen über sehr unterschiedliche Waffen und Manäver, dies sorgt für viele Lacher und spielerisch für eine mächtig taktische Auswahl. Einsteiger haben keine Chance? Nein, keine Angst: Denn dank des sehr ausführlichen und gut durchdachten Einspielermodus könnt Ihr Euch gut in die kunterbunte Schiesswelt einleben. Das Herzstück bildet erneut der sehr ausgereifte Mehrspielermodus. Freut Euch auf das neue Rankingsystem, zwölf differente Maps und den coolen Krautangriff-Modus. Bis zu 24 wütende Zombies und angriffslustige Pflanzen gehen Online aufeinander los, Co-Op könnt Ihr bis zu 4 Spieler in die Schlacht ziehen. (raf)

Welcome back! This week, Ryan talks to Jeremy from PopCap about Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare 2, while Sid finally faces his fear of MOBAs and shares his impressions of Epic's accessible-yet-hardcore Paragon. Justin is once again crippled by his inability to choose between Destiny and Final Fantasy XIV, and we can only assume Nick is lost in the wilderness somewhere, because he's not in this episode. I'm sure he's fine.

We discuss Sony having more issues to deal with, Popcap gets in to the shootin’ dudes business, Minecraft sells a ton and gets an official release date, we gather around for some Homefront, Back to the Future and Turtle Beach discussion, and of course we dive in to the latest and greatest in the industry and take a very special trip to the internetzOn This Weeks EpisodeWe sue EASony gets hassledMinecraft makes crazy moneyPopcap shifts gearsSony gets in to the tablet business

Tom runs through a brief history of video game distribution, starting with arcade consoles and ending with digital distribution stores.

Popcap's Jeff Green joins returning guest David Heron, Troy, and Rob for a discussion of the Civilization V expansion Gods and Kings. Together, they discuss why Civ V was so controversial, how G&K changes it, and whether its major changes seem quite as meaningful now that they've put some time into it. Be sure to listen to the episode for details on a little contest to give away some spare Sins: Rebellion keys. Which we should have done last week, but we forgot. Because we're disgraceful. But still pretty great.

Jeff Green has had a lengthy career in the video game industry. Now he's the Director of Editorial and Social Media for PopCap Games - very impressive stuff. We talk about his work at PopCap, his nearly 20 years at Ziff Davis Media (from associate editor to Editor in Chief) and the continued popularity of GFW Radio, and we sprinkle in a lot of conversation about social media including the implict value of social media to mutli-million dollar companies and what it's like when your phone explodes with messages after a company like EA buys a company like PopCap. Enjoy. Follow Jeff on Twitter at @Greenspeak and be sure to check out the PopCast on iTunes. Run Time - 1:05:51 Send your feedback to feedback@justtalkingpodcast.com.

This Week, The show is one host down as Aristile calls out sick, leaving Fern and Vaul free to tangent like maniacs. Games retailers offer an olive branch to publishers on per-owned sales, will it work? Also, numbers fly randomly as Popcap investigates the link between social games and cheating. No new question of the week, so we'll continue last weeks: What are your top games you played in 2011? Email your answers to noexcusesvtw@gmail.com

Olá a todos, bem vindo a mais um bordão semanal do Fênix News! Hoje temos Diego, Fernando, Kazz e Thiago Ádamo recebendo o cozinheiro mais querido de todos os tempos: Pablo Prime, do Outerspace e Cozinha para desprovidos! Começando com as peripécias da EA. Enquanto de um lado a grande produtora esbanja dinheiro comprando a mãe das plantas contra zumbis, PopCap, de outro ela fecha diversos servidores de jogos antigos que, teoricamente, ninguém iria mais sentir falta. E estaria a Microsoft jogando a toalha ou com um novo sistema operacional anti-pirataria? O rumor é que a próxima versão da plataforma mais usada e odiada do mundo, Windows 8, virá com suporte a jogos de 360. Debatemos ao fundo quais as vantagens e desvantagens dessa possibilidade para nós e para eles. Por fim nosso querido Molyneux, após uma E3 nada animadora, veio em defesa do Kinect alegando que não teve seu potencial explorado ainda. Estaria o Kinect apto a realmente ser uma boa ferramenta para jogos hardcore ou é apenas um meio de chamar o público casual para a caixa verde? O que se pode fazer com um controle que não existe?

On this week's Dammit, we start off tackling such topics as Netflix on 3DS, Call of Duty Elite and XP, EA purchasing Popcap, strategy games in regards to XCOM, television depictions of video games, and the heady issue of proper crediting (focused on LA Noire). Games-wise, we chat a bit about older Zelda titles, Deus Ex Human Revolution, LA Noire, and what Matt Leone would change about Bayonetta. We then answer reader queries about our feelings on QTEs, the supposed resurgence of 2D games, "what's the deal with Japan," and the Xbox Live Summer of Arcade lineup. Also, Bob Mackey repeatedly pushes his Marxist agenda onto both the podcast crew and the games industry as a whole (when he's not discussing "the week of hedgehogs").

The end of an era! Sorta! We're moving to IGN offices next week, so this is the last episode in the "1UP Admiral's Club." In it, we talk about gaming's love of celebrations (specifically Sonic, Quake, and Bungie), Jeff Green's return to EA (via the rumored Popcap purchase), how Gaikai and Wal-Mart have a nifty demo system, Kinect ads and Halo Anniversary support, and the weird "celebrity" appearances in the Duke Nukem Forever multiplayer trailer.

Finally, while there is no official sponsorship, you'll agree that this episode should have been endorsed by Cake Boss. Until the first podcast from the IGN office!

We really wanted to play Resident Evil 5, but because it released that day, we had a problem getting our hands on it. We also couldn't get a hold of Madworld on short notice, so on Friday Night Gaming the 13th we played...PEGGLE. Yes, Popcap's lovable rainbow-filled unicorn-featuring casual game was just released on Xbox Live Arcade and we hook a few local players at the Computer ArenA in Roswell, GA on it, as well as playing in Peg Parties with our listeners. We also take calls about a viewer in a national Street Fighter IV tournament, reminiscing about old TV commercials, and online tournament running. In the CC Gaming Hardware Spotlight, we fix a "Blinking NES" with just three household objects, one of which we fix quite by accident and have to get a second one to do the real fix that we intended.
