Are we living through an indie gaming Renaissance? Whilst giant software houses are pushing constant reiterations of the next Call of Fortnite, a new breed of developer has risen. With an inventive and creative edge, indie games and developers are bringing a flurry of new games to market.

All of this whilst we sample a traditional German white beer and a definitely non-traditional stout from the US!

Fredrik och Martin värmer upp med lite bråkiga internetuppkopplingar. Sedan blir det sparande av data, serialisering till JSON och YAML, hur Unity kan spara data och att synka data med Molnet. Därifrån kommer vi över på hur fantastiska verktygen för webbutveckling blivit sedan nyss nedlagda Firebug först släpptes. Fredrik rapporterar lite också från Øredev vilket leder till undran och förundran kring blockkedjor och AI. Är blockkedjor mycket väsen för en datastruktur? Förstår folk (vi och alla andra) egentligen varför blockkedjor är så i ropet? Vi avslutar med att snacka AI som spelar spel, och en förhoppning att i framtiden kunna generera avsnitt av Kodsnack med AI (eller åtminstone Markovkedjor).
