Stagione 3

OUTSIDE GAMING IV with McKenna (Flashback 64)

Welcome to Pixels and Polygons, part of the Sound Stone Network. This is a conversational podcast hosted by Darren Hupke. It features a rotating cast of guests each week and captures a conversation on a set gaming topic. Each episode starts with an introduction of the guest and an icebreaker; then, we answer a single gaming question. Short and sweet! It’s the perfect “podcast-between-podcasts!” This week’s topic is… Do you interact with games outside of playing them? What other ways do you stay involved with this hobby (reading, writing, talking, drawing, etc.)? My guest this week is: McKenna from Flashback 64! Friend of the show, writer from the Harvest Moon issue of Retro Game Zine, and fellow podcaster McKenna returns to the show on a solo adventure. ---------------- Show credits: Ry-Spirit designed the logo - Instagram - @ryspiritart - https://www.deviantart.com/ry-spirit Background art from Zelda Dungeon I created the music.

PARAGRAPHS w/ John Rogers, Citizen Sleeper 2 Design Works

Welcome to Pixels and Paragraphs, part of the Sound Stone Network. This is the bonus show, where you get to hear me, Darren Hupke, interview some of the raddest writers behind the greatest gaming books. Each episode, you’ll get to hear from a new guest as they discuss their book, talk about their process, share some details from behind the keys, and more! Whether you’re a fan of the book already or want to find something new to read, I hope you’ll find something to enjoy about what we discuss today! This week’s guest is… John Rogers, author of the upcoming Citizen Sleeper 2: Design Works. Citizen Sleeper 2: Design Works, written by John Rogers (Gaming in the Wild, Ultros: Design Works), takes you even deeper inside the Starward Belt. Through previously unseen character sketches, architectural diagrams, and in-depth interviews with Gareth Damian Martin, Guillaume Singelin, and Amos Roddy, we shine a light on the process of creating these unforgettable characters and places. The result is a fascinating and detailed look at Citizen Sleeper 2’s improbable untold story: a comprehensive document of its journey from inspiration to conception, development, and release.
