Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we start a new series on Heroes of Might and Magic. We talk about the boardgame of it all and where the vibes are with this one, among other topics. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: Some standard, some campaign Issues covered: hearing the journey and thoughts of our listeners, deep regrets about Megaman, games that scare us, learning the patterns, hearing about the Final Fantasy thoughts, learning about FF15 at two different publishers, a game you can't pick up and play for an hour, seeking out a full game experience, dialing down the map challenge, a more dense map, lots of map options, seeing a new map, considering whether the maps are generated algorithmically, playing a little too disposably, how this game might be played, lack of boardgame clarity, extreme depth, depth of the tactical mode, opacity and complexity, the aesthetics of the time, dormant franchises vs active ones, lacking iteration and interaction on the design and with the players, possible outcomes from opacity, balance in defending the castles, how slowly should I move on the map, getting over the hump, getting services in The Sims, kind words about the 'cast.

In this episode, Bryan and Josh dip their toes into the idle/incremental game space! Three idle games have been chosen: Universal Paperclips, SPACEPLAN, and (the) Gnorp Apologue. All are quite different manifestations of the idle/incremental game and each has its own strengths and unique offerings to explore. Universal Paperclips (2017) was created by Frank Lantz of New York University and has been acclaimed as one of the best of the genre. It features a unique retelling of the paperclip maximizer thought experiment. SPACEPLAN (2017) was developed by Jake Hollands and published by Devolver Digital and features striking visuals and a relaxing synth-heavy soundtrack. Finally, (the) Gnorp Apologue (2023) is the game that spurred the conversation on idle games to begin with and as its description states: “is a game where you help small beings called gnorps get rich”. Its also quite visually interesting any layers in some unique ‘management game' style mechanics. So listen in while Bryan goes to make some dinner and Josh stares with wrapped attention at his computer screen and they jointly put together their thoughts on this varied and interesting genre.Three Word Reviews: Universal Paperclips: Bryan - Existential Thought Experiment / Josh - An Argument AgainstSPACEPLAN: Bryan - Perfect Entry Point / Josh - Waiting for Story(the) Gnorp Apologue: Bryan - Prestige Incremental Management / Josh - Spectacle, Strategy, Screensaver

Jim talks with Frank Lantz about the ideas in his new book, The Beauty of Games. They discuss Frank's analysis of Benjamin Soule's arcade game Serpentes, reflecting on the enjoyment of games, panicking & choking, levels of understanding, Jim and his wife's experience playing Othello, Hanabi, partnership games, games as an aesthetic form, art vs aesthetics, playing for its own sake, thinking & doing, fulfilling the desire to be a coherent agent in the world, the performance of desire, games as systems, heuristics, strategy in military games, a game as a series of interesting decisions, overindexing on the flow state, going up the ladder of heuristics, maximizing for rate of learning, systems literacy, games as an art form for nerds, and much more. Episode Transcript The Beauty of Games, by Frank Lantz Currents 097: Frank Lantz on Network Wars and Games Donkeyspace (Frank's Substack) Frank Lantz is a game designer with a focus on exploring emerging technology to create new kinds of gameplay. He is the Founding Chair of the NYU Game Center, the co-founder of Area/Code Games (acquired by Zynga in 2011), the co-founder of Everybody House Games and the creator of the game Universal Paperclips. He has taught game design for over 20 years at New York University, Parsons School of Design, and the School of Visual Arts and has created numerous influential talks and writings on the subject of games.

In this episode I speak with award-winning game designer Frank Lantz about the beauty of games and what we can learn from them. It goes without saying that games are an integral part of life and our personal development, but what is it that draws us to playing? And what role does playing games serve in society at large? Frank has designed a host of amazing games and was the director of NYU's Game Center for 15 years. Together, we dive deep on the philosophical side of games.   For more information on this topic, check out Frank's new book, The Beauty of Games!   Links: ♾️  The Beauty of Games by Frank Lantz (book) https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262048538/the-beauty-of-games/ ♾️  Universal Paperclips (game) https://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/ ♾️  Progress Quest http://progressquest.com/ ♾️  Cow Clicker http://www.cowclicker.com/ ♾️  Kittens Game https://kittensgame.com/web/ ♾️  Wipe Out (game) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wipeout_(video_game_series) ♾️  David Chapman - Meaningness https://meaningness.com/ ♾️  Meta-Rationality https://metarationality.com/introduction ♾️  Kegan Levels https://azatris.github.io/levels ♾️  Godell Herscher Back https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del,_Escher,_Bach   Credits: ♾️  Hosted by: Liv Boeree ♾️  Produced & Edited by: Raymond Wei ♾️  Audio Mix by: Keir Schmidt

This community is a big tent. We welcome folks from all backgrounds, and all levels of experience with computers. Heck, on our last episode, we celebrated an article written by someone who is, rounding down, a lawyer! A constant question I ponder is: what's the best way to introduce someone to the world of FoC? If someone is a workaday programmer, or a non-programmer, what can we share with them to help them understand our area of interest? A personal favourite is the New Media Reader, but it's long and dense. An obvious crowd-pleaser is Inventing on Principle. Bonnie Nardi's A Small Matter of Programming deserves a place on the list, especially if the reader is already an avid programmer who doesn't yet understand the point of end-user programming. They might ask, "Why should typical computer users bother learning to program?" Well, that's the wrong question! Instead, we should start broader. Why do we use computers? What do we use them to do? What happens when they don't do what we want? Who controls what they do? Will this ever change? What change do we want? Nardi challenges us to explore these questions, and gives the reader a gentle but definitive push in a positive direction. Next time, we're… considered harmful? #### $ We have launched a Patreon! => patreon.com/futureofcoding If, with the warmth in your heart and the wind in your wallet, you so choose to support this show then please know that we are tremendously grateful. Producing this show takes a minor mountain of effort, and while the countless throngs of adoring fair-weather fans will surely arrive eventually, the small kilo-cadre of diehard listeners we've accrued so far makes each new episode a true joy to share. Through thick and thin (mostly thin since the sponsorship landscape turned barren) we're going to keep doing our darnedest to make something thought-provoking with an independent spirit. If that tickles you pink, throw some wood in our fireplace! (Yes, Ivan is writing this, how can you tell?) Also, it doesn't hurt that the 2nd bonus episode — "Inherently Spatial" — is one of the best episodes of the show yet. It defrags so hard; you'll love it. #### Init Bug report: Frog Fractions. Oh the indignity! Hey, it's The Witness in our show notes again. Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy is the better game, even if it spawned Only Up and other copycats that miss the point. The Looker gets the point. Getting Over It is a triumph that emerged from a genre of games that are hard to play: Octodad, QWOP, I Am Bread Braid arguably spawned the genre of high-minded & heady puzzlers that all try to say something profound through their design. Cookie Clicker and Universal Paperclips are good incremental games. Jump King and Only Up are intentionally bad. Flappy Bird was accidentally good. Surgeon Simulator and Goat Simulator are purely for the laughs. Stanley Parable, like Getting Over It, brings in the voice of the creator to (say) invite rumination on the fourth wall, which is what make them transcendent. Here's the trailer for Bennett Foddy's new game, Baby Steps. So on the one hand we have all these "bad" and """bad""" and sometimes badgames, which actually end up doing quite well in advancing the culture. On the other hand we have The Witness, The Talos Principal, Swapper, Antichamber, QUBE, and all these high-minded puzzly games, which despite their best efforts to say something through their design… kinda don't. When comparing the "interactivity" of these games, it's tempting to talk about the mechanics (or dynamics), but that formal definition feels a little too precise. We mean something looser — something closer to the colloquial meaning when "Gamers" talk about "game mechanics". Silent Football might be an example of "sports as art". Mao is a card game where explaining the rules is forbidden. #### Main The Partially Examined Life is one of Jimmy's favourite philosophy podcasts. Two essays from Scientific American's 1991 Special Issue Communications, Computers and Networks are referenced in the first chapter, one by Larry Tesler and one by Alan Kay. The other essays in this issue are also quite interesting to reflect on from our position 30 years hence. Apple's Knowledge Navigator video, and HP's 1995 video, are speculative fiction marketing about conversational agents. Rewind.ai is one of those "Computer, when did I last degauss the tachyon masticator?" tools. (Oh, Lifestreams…) S-GPT is Federico Viticci's iOS/Mac Shortcut that strings together ChatGPT and various Shortcuts features, so that you can do some nifty automation stuff via a conversational interface. It feels like similar things could be built — heck, probably already have been built — with "If-Tuh-Tuh-Tuh" or Zapier. When Ivan reaches for domain-specific terminology, LUT, Arri Alexa, and Redcome easily because, like, he wishes he had occasion to use them. To hear the story about the Secret Service busting down young Jimmy's door, listen to his episode on the Code With Jason podcast. C Is Not a Low-level Language — a fantastic article about the illusion that our source code closely matches what actually happens during execution. What Follows from Empirical Software Research? Not much, according to Jimmy in this delightful article. Jimmy likes to reference Minecraft's "redstone" which acts a bit like a programming system, so here, have a video about redstone. Ivan saw this video via Mastodon, about someone making a "real" camera in Blender, and… just…

This week, host Anna Rose (https://twitter.com/annarrose) and co-host Kobi Gurkan (https://twitter.com/kobigurk) chat with Yohei Nakajima (https://twitter.com/yoheinakajima), General Partner at Untapped Capital (https://www.untapped.vc/) and creator of BabyAGI (https://babyagi.org/). They cover a wide variety of topics from the world of AGIs and agents to building no-code software in public. They kick-off with a chat about how Yohei's interest in NFTs led him down the AI ‘rabbit hole' and how he started to build out experiments in public that have inspired a new group of AI tools and projects. They wrap up with a discussion about the possible impacts of some of this AI tech, how ZK may help mediate the challenges it introduces and more.

Sleep is essential for humans (and computers). It let's our thoughts settle and our cycles to reset. But what happens when other things invade those restful moments? How do we continue to interact with games while we sleep? And what is sleep really a metaphor for? Surprisingly, we tackle all of these issues, while also discussing the prospect of a permadeath Mario game. In this episode: Steven falls asleep at the wheel. Tess sleeps to success. David has some strategey sessions while sleeping. Cotton calls Kirby a murderer. If you want to tell us what kind of sleeper you are, consider joining our Patreon to gain access to our discord server.

Paperclips are an important, yet underappreciated tool of the modern workforce. With eleven billion paperclips manufactured yearly, ensuring their construction operates smoothly is a monumental task. But what happens when technical innovation surpasses regulation, and software is given total control? ~ I've always been a huge fan of the game "Universal Paperclips" so I figured an adaptation would be a fun project. This project turned out way better than I thought it would. Not only did Blake Anthony killed it with the narration, but I managed to rope my friend Spencer into creating an original score for the project. Everything fits together perfectly, I doubt I'll be surpassing this level of quality for some time. ~Credits~ Narrator: Blake Anthony Written by: Alec Preissler Audio Editing: Alec Preissler Album Art: Alec Preissler Music: Spencer Barrett

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we cap off our revisit of the unique series Animal Crossing with a bonus episode about it's latest installment, Animal Crossing: New Horizons. We talk about the feeling of the new game, the intersection of new mechanics and quality-of-life improvements and how they change the feel of the game, and we give the museum some love in addition to other topics and feedback. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: An hour or so a day! Podcast breakdown: 0:47 Animal Crossing: New Horizons 57:04 Break 57:37 Feedback & Next Game Issues covered: the vacation that's not a vacation, observations of humanity and how we use our phones, our own relationships with phones, similarities with Pocket Camp, seasonal events, the evolving mobile game and its influence into New Horizons, explicit vs implicit cooldowns (and being able to pay to remove them), analysis paralysis at the beginning, the things that Brett's not crazy about in the game/Nook Miles tracking, preferring the lack of incentives, worrying about achievements, intrinsic vs extrinsic rewards, stacking fruit, hacking and modding scene, losing the innocence, imagining a world in which the original game appears now, visibility into the indie space, blowing tranquility out of the water with Nook Miles, achievements, the influence of business models on the churn and turmoil of the industry, the changing approachability of games, being able to ask Tom Nook what to do, losing discovery and its accompanying delight, taking a positive lesson from trash, franchise challenges in terms of what you keep and what you discard, tracking multiple economies, revisiting EverQuest or Ultima and not knowing what to do, taking things academically for the 'cast, wanting to stay in the tent, not being engaged by the acquisition loops, losing characters in the original, animalizing changing your look, beauty as a feature, only doing the required crafting, overlap between classic AC/WoW and modern AC/WoW, the fantastic music, Tim captures a flea, the huge impact of the beauty of the museum, Brett's Book Recommendation, having a birthday intersecting with holidays in Animal Crossing, anticipating what will delight a player, being akin to a clicker, why play a game about chores, being rewarded by a chuckle, tend-and-befriend, Scandinavian comfort culture (hygge), ikagai and lagom, thinking about the next generation of hardware, load constraints, being interested in constraints, being curious about genuine innovation, what you can do with a really big hard drive, the expense of building for a new generation, high definition as a feature, pushing up against the constraints, we look forward to returning Geonosis, Brett's screed against YouTube.

Luego de años y años de esfuerzo, Café Fandango puede decir que ha publicado su episodio número 0.000266 millón. En este programa, Seba y Edu hicieron el código Konami y sacaron al personaje sorpresa Gus, que te cuenta su experiencia con el Outer Worlds, su recaída con el Universal Paperclips y algunas cosas que le habían quedado pendiente del Final Fantasy IX. Por su lado, Seba sigue jugando a mudarse y al Saint Seiya Awakening y Edu también estuvo jugando a cosas como Seven Days, el Disco Elysium. Después de reirnos un poco con la miseria de centenas de niños japoneses, pasamos a los lanzamientos de la semana y luego a las noticias donde te contamos que la PS4 pasó a la Play 1 en ventas totales, de los juegos "gratis" que vienen el mes que te dan con PS Plus y Xbox Games With Gold, de algunas personalidades copadas del mundo de los videojuegos, de EA que se amigó con Steam, de la lucha de clases en Fallout 76 y de Nintendo que hizo lo mínimo posible para celebrar Halloween. Cerramos con la Pregunta Fandango donde nos imaginamos una gigante fiesta de disfraces gamer.

Games play an important, and arguably increasing, role in human life. We play games on our computers and our phones, watch other people compete in games, and occasionally break out the cards or the Monopoly set. What is the origin of this human impulse, and what makes for a great game? Frank Lantz is both a working game designer and an academic who thinks about the nature of games and gaming. We discuss what games are, contrast the challenges of Go and Poker and other games, and investigate both the “dark energy” that games can sometimes induce and the ways they can help us become better people. Support Mindscape on Patreon or Paypal. Frank Lantz is a game designer and Director of the Game Center at New York University. He co-founded Area/Code games, and is the designer or co-designer of numerous popular games, including Drop7 and Universal Paperclips. He is also responsible for a number of large-scale real-world games. He has taught at New York University, Parsons School of Design, and the School of Visual Arts.

Andy and Stuart discuss their secret love of clicker games and not so secret love of spreadsheets in this week's Cost of a Coffee. Universal Paperclips is the story of a AI designed to manufacture paperclips, above all else.  We would describe it in greater detail, but that would just be wasting precious time in which you could be making paperclips... "Release the Hypno Drones."

Frank Lantz is a game designer and Director of the NYU Game Center.

More is always better, right? Wrong! We're joined by games critic and all-around smart egg John Brindle to discuss his Waypoint article analyzing Frank Lantz's brilliant clicker game Universal Paperclips. Along the way, we cover why simple games are often the most impactful, how to make sure your game says what you want it to say, and the dangers of including mechanics without considering all of their implications. We also talk about paperclips. Lots and lots of paperclips.

On this week's episode, host Josiah Renaudin is joined by a familiar cast to determine the top 10 games of 2017. The crew includes podcaster, past GameSpotter, and current freelancer, Tom Mc Shea; the managing editor at Feminist Frequency, podcaster, streamer, and writer, Carolyn Petit; and game designer and writer for Divinity Original Sin 2 and former GameSpot reviews editor, Kevin VanOrd. They discuss games such as Universal Paperclips, Hellblade, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Resident Evil 7, The Evil Within 2, Butterfly Soup, and much more.

Since they waited so ding dang long to record their November and because December is a crummy month for releases, The Besties have combined both months into one big (OK, so it’s regular-length) episode. Enjoy! Games discussed: Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild DLC, Solitairica, Call of Duty: WW2, Star Wars: Battlefront 2, Hearthstone: Kobolds and Catacombs, Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy, Universal Paperclips, Destiny 2: Curse of Osiris, Battle Chef Brigade, Endless Space 2.
