Game Dev Podcast | Coffee with Butterscotch

Hey hey, Shenanites! This week, we discuss reality show pitches, cheap hobbies, and minimalist hyper casual garbage. Do you know who else believed in rapid prototyping and small batch delivery? Hint: airplanes were involved. Which is to say, history is more than just a recounting of wars. Sometimes it’s running a marathon in a suit.

Show Notes

Hey hey, Shenanites! This week, we discuss reality show pitches, cheap hobbies, and minimalist hyper casual garbage. Do you know who else believed in rapid prototyping and small batch delivery? Hint: airplanes were involved. Which is to say, history is more than just a recounting of wars. Sometimes it’s running a marathon in a suit.

Sidenote: We recorded this episode before GDC was postponed, so the discussion about that is outdated.

Questions answered (abbreviated):

  • Mimmabip Gourkee: You have three months to release a mobile game. Sam is the game programmer, Adam the artist, and Seth the web programmer. Describe your product.
  • Hakuzo: What was the very first video game you played?
  • 7aylor: Are there any periods or events in history that really fascinate you?
