Ep. 97 - HarrowHaunt: The Mansion Project

Isaac pitches a game about exploring... and that's it! No experience, no treasure. Just, the thrill of exploring! Claire's idea puts you in the role of a live streamer! And for a discussion we talk about systemic games/systemic game design AKA designing your game around the emergent interplay of ~systems~! Sounds exciting!




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!
