  • Geoff Moonen makes magical girls burn out
    Sep 2 2024

    First-time returning guest Geoff Moonen rejoins the show to make "My Magical World Never Went Away," based on the prompts:

    • hyper realistic
    • Magical Girls
    • fist-fighting

    Geoff and Jenna run with a fairly generous understanding of the phrase "hyper realistic," as applying to the magical girl portion and NOT the physics or fist-fighting. Their game undercuts modern dark-retellings of Magical Girl stories and opts for a more relatable story about recovering from burnout and realizing that your past mistakes don't need to define your magical future. Your magical world never went away.... it's right here!

    Learn more about Geoff Moonen on his website, or by listening to his podcast Fun and Games Pod! And check out Magical Beatdown from Silver Sprocket.

  • Chase Carter makes a multi-dimensional flapping game
    Aug 26 2024

    Chase Carter, games journalist and co-founder of Rascal News, deploys his incredible language skills to make "Flappy Bird: Shifted" with the prompts:

    • ASCII,
    • Supernatural Investigation,
    • Flappy-bird-like

    I hope you're ready for a hard-hitting story about a search for a lost loved one, undertaken entirely by pressing a button to fight gravity. Shift your perspective to find your way through dimensions of text and punctuation in this moving ASCII-art game. This may potentially be the most competent game concept creation to date on this show!

  • Tristan Cooper makes some more great content
    Aug 19 2024

    Tristan Cooper, social media manager for The Verge and Can I Pet The Dog, makes "Stable 4: They Like It!" based on the words:

    • Anachronistic
    • haberdasher
    • Racing Game

    The resulting game leans into the indie game trope of making lots of cute hats for cute animals, using the materials you can scrounge from your trophy wins. And most importantly, the horses love it!

    See more of Tristan's work on Twitter at TheVerge, and CanYouPetTheDog, and find more Can You Pet The Dog related accounts here.
