Hello all! I have a special episode for you today, wherein we have a great big discussion on MAGIC: THE GATHERING – something I haven't really dived into too deeply before on the show. For most of my life I was very, very skeptical of these games – I still think, for good reason. But …

Today's guest is Dayan Radisic, the lead developer at Stygian Software, the team behind the indie CRPG UnderRail. I've personally only played a handful of hours of the game so far, but it's definitely the kind of game that's in the "RPG Project" territory – it's quite clearly super inspired by games like the original …

If you listened to my last episode all the way to the end, you might've heard Justin Ma mention a game that he's been playing recently that he thought was cool. That game, which he recommended and I ended up playing, was Quantum Protocol. Quantum Protocol is a one-player digital card game that isn't a …

Kyle Kukshtel said he sees me as a bit like an "alternative universe version of" himself, because we're both solo indie devs working on turn-based tactical wargames that do things differently. His game, Cantata, is looking really cool and different, and he's been working on it for somewhere around six years! I'm really excited for …

On today's show, we have an interview with designer and theorist Fabian Fischer. Fabian is the designer behind Crimson Company, which is now running its fourth Kickstarter, which is currently doing incredibly well—at the time of this writing, it has over $33,000 pledged (and they were only asking or $11,000)! On the show, we discuss …

Hi everyone! Today's episode goes into some depth about emergent complexity: what is it, what isn't it, why would we want it, and how do we get more of it? We talk about specific examples in games like 4X strategy games, and most importantly (because I'm making one), squad tactics games. I want to say …

Hey everyone! Weird times. I've actually been a little sick myself (don't worry, I'm doing all of the things) and less productive over the past week or so than I'd like to have been. I originally wanted to have a new podcast episode ready for you guys today but sadly because of how weird everything …

"Points quantify something which should remain in the realm of qualitative measurement." This is the most succinct way that I know to express my problem, not so much with "score systems" per se as described in Ella Hoeppner's recent blog post – which also spurred a bunch of conversations on my (now daily!) Twitch stream …
