This week, I have Twinbeard, the creator of Frog Fractions, on to talk about the original Legend of Zelda, which is one of the games at the heart of the design of Frog Fractions 2! We also talk about reading D&D sourcebooks, games that aren't as good as Save the Date, and studs vs wimps.   Next week is Final Fantasy XV, with Moose, as I tease in this episode!   Show Notes: Twinbeard's website, where you can find Frog Fractions and Futilitris  Video Games Hot Dog  Movement Mechanics in "The Legend of Zelda" 

The stage is set for the first American overthrow of a foreign government. Join us to the exciting, insulting, frustrating, and even shocking conclusion to this strange tale. Today we’ll see how those carefully laid plans pan out.  As a bonus, you’ll finally learn about “ol’ Twinbeard” himself on our cover art!   Sources – … 42- The Heist of Hawaii Part 2Read More »

Frog Fractions will not teach you how to fraction. It's also free and you can play it here: http://twinbeard.com/frog-fractions/ It's highly recommended that you play the game before you listen. It should only take about an hour to complete depending on how quick you are at discovering its tricks.  Outro music: Dance Dance Revolution Extreme 'Epic Steps' by Tonalysis (http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR03699) 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!

This week we’re joined by the mercurial Jim Crawford aka Twinbeard of Frog Fractions fame, and he’s been playing Skyrim and Rockband and Hungry Cat Picross; during the recording Lisa plays Doge 2048, a clone of a Threes clone; Joel goes low-fi with the Blackwell series of point and click adventure games; and Dave tells us about the Experimental Games Workshop at GDC and Bounden (watch the video on their site and you'll get it immediately). For this week's discussion we had a chat with Jim about the Frog Fractions 2 Kickstarter (that you should totally back right now) and his adventures in crowdfunding. Inevitably we also discussed Facebook's $2b acquisition of Oculus and pontificate about their nefarious(?) plans for VR technology. If you have any questions for Jim you can tweet @mogwai_poet and as always if you'd like to write in to us you can do so via email or Twitter.  Music: Jim Crawford - Pond Life (Frog Fractions OST)

Although Jim Crawford has had a love for video games for a long time and been making games for almost as long, it was a flash game in the final quarter of 2012 entitled Frog Fractions that won over the hearts of many gamers with its finely tuned homage to a variety of old style games and charming ridiculous nature. We chat about game jams, the dangers of Tarantino film themes and how badly video games end. Oh, and we talk some Frog Fractions but you might just want to play it first if you haven’t!
