Coffee with Butterscotch: A Game Dev Comedy Podcast

Good day, Shenanites! In this episode, we discuss hipsavers, pattern recognition, and what problems are actually interesting. Plus, we revisit our old standby “Design By Chaos” and examine whether or not it still holds up! People place a lot of value on the idea of hard work, but sometimes hard work is just hard. If it can be made easier, why not do it? There are infinite problems out there to solve. Leave the details to robots and books.
