LOL, that's quiet the post, Fitz! Where did your game get featured, was this at a show or like on a forum? Fish sounds like a tool, and not the loveable Blue-Cup variety.. too bad people making free games on their own free time are robbing him of glory  Magenta eats flash games for brunch! (because I assume she likes to sleep in...)

That aside, another smashing episode with some thought-provoking discussions Always fun to hear from Dave.

Agreed, Dave is great...

But still waiting patiently for the Icey interview

Oh happy day!

I kinda hate that I agree with you, David. I want lots of challenging puzzles and interesting uses of inventory, but I have that same problem with time! I can only spend so much time on a game, I start cheating if I'm stuck for ten minutes, then I feel shame
I think the answer might lie in medium difficulty puzzles and crap loads of interactivity, things to look at and interact with (also a pleasant distraction when stuck).
Good podcast, I still love the batmobile (hate it when they turn it into a tank) and I think the Arkham games are kinda just glorious button mashers.

It might be that your LCD screens are made for digital input only and the SNES was an analog output I am pretty certain. Try an older TV.

DO I HAVE TO GET OLDER TODAY!!
Does this mean I can't make games with AGS anymore because I am too old for silly dreams?!
I know! Gribbler is the key!! If neither of us acknowledge the birthday, the birthday won't exist!

Yay! Happy Birthdays MiteWiseacreLives and... oh, wait.

DAMN-IT GRIBBLER!!! IT'S OVER FOR BOTH OF US YOU FOOL!!!!!1!!1!!1!!1!!1

BUMPED!

Let me definitively settle the debate on the background of Crankosaurus Prime:

Spoiler

One day Ponch, myself, Dr. Wookey and Mandle were sitting in a Texas saloon discussing the development of the game.. it became clear that Crankosaurus needed an underlying theme. Crank's similarities to a bitter crocodile-like game developer is entirely intended, he pursues the Blue Crystals begrudgingly just as a developer makes a game for a paycheck pushing and shoving obstacles rather than creating a clever puzzle-solution. The team unanimously decided Charles Cecil's grumpy ways would be the entire message of the game, we wore large cowboy hats and shot our six shooters into the saloon ceiling.

At last the truth comes out! Finally. I was so tired of living a lie.

Isn't it just great how the Blue Cup Tools podcast not only brings us entertainment but healing as well.

Paying people off to agree with you is a new low, Ben.

Well, everyone but Grundislav 

Interesting episode 
I find the little choices in games fun.. even if it makes only immediate small results it's entertaining.

Episode 75 was phenominal, by the way.   

I think my heart is broken... Going to have to cry in the shower for a bit before I can work on my game 
I wonder though how you feel about the hard puzzle/easy puzzle/hard puzzle/medium puzzle flow relates to pacing, should you devote a lot of planning time to this (then build the story around that)?

I want to try some "slice"!
Sounds so tasty    or it could be something painful  (Is Grandmother violent at all?)
The bro-mance continues...

Just got Ep 68 to finally play through, it kept stalling on me last week.
Loom sequel   
Then I got the rest of the story 
Maybe I should go eat a bowl of ice-cream while I finish sobbing....

I believe that would be Formal Wear that you hope to wear.
But.. this is a music expo awards ceremony, full of artists I would presume, therefor wear whatever you want many others will do so as well.
You will look just non-conformist enough not to be a jack-ass, IMHO.

Your totally right, just watched this with my son the other day... Should've got here sooner 

Oh My   Much higher 'cuss-count' than normal! Look out kids , Thanks for another Podcast!
