Ep. 94 - My Barbecue Experience

Isaac went to a nerd convention for nerds who play tabletop wargames like Warhammer 40k and such, so his idea is a nerd game for nerds who like wargames! Claire uses a flashback to explain how she did, actually, give a game idea to us, and that game idea was based on Blades In the Dark, the tabletop roleplaying game! Then we leverage that to talk about adaptations in general and things to keep in mind when adapting a non-video game to a video game.




This is Make That Game, the podcast where we talk about the latest and greatest new video games... that aren't ever going to get made. We pitch 'em, you make 'em (if you want, nobody's forcing you I guess). Then we break down games we've played by game design elements we liked or didn't like so much. If you're looking for a video game design focused podcast, we might have just the one for you!




And of course, as always, we have the rapid fire round, where we generate 3 random words and come up with a game idea and design incorporating them! Needless to say, it's a riot!
