The Holidays Have Eaten My Podcast

I picked the worst time to try to start a podcast. And my friends “don’t feel like recording”.

Next Episode

We’re still working out a regular schedule that we can maintain. I’m trying to decide if we should record less frequently but always have the full cast, or if we should more often with whoever is available. Let us know what you think @ thegamemechanics@gmail.com

Episode 1 Extended Cut

I also made an extended cut of episode 1. I think I’ll be keeping this up. Dragons Landing Inn asked that we keep down to less then 10 minutes, preferably 5. It was really tough to cut the raw file down to 10 minutes, but that’s in the previous post. I’ll be posting bloopers shortly.

The Game Mechanics Ep 1 Dragons Landing Inn Edit

It’s been recorded

I talked my roommates Adam and Mike into recording with me and we did it last night. We were alittle scattered. I’m editing it now.

Coming Soon

I emailed Chuck and Lonnie over at The Dragons Landing Inn, another gaming podcast, I think the oldest one actually. They host user segments about various topics. First it was Gamer Traveler who did a segment on historical locations and how they can be used in a tabletop rpg. And now there’s a review segment being done Chris Perrin who also does the Canon Puncture podcast.And they’ve given me afew minutes to premiere the podcast.

New gaming podcast

I’ve been inspired to start a new gaming podcast, you can read about it here. My idea is to discuss game mechanics as a whole. Investigate gameply styles through out various game styles. Discuss trends in modern game design, and the visual language being devolped.
