176. How to Market an Indie Game (& Undertale's Terrible Code)

Alanah and Mike discuss indie game marketing, and the fact that getting past being worried about something sucking is the best way to start... making something!

Austin, Mike, and Alanah chat about IP Rights and our (very early, uniformed lol) thoughts on the "Stop Killing Games" petition.

This week, Mike and Alanah talk about learning to use game engine Godot, the brilliant lighting in TRON: Catalyst, and ethics in genitalia shown in film.

This week, Alanah, Mike, and Austin sat down to chat to Tonda Ros - the director of Blue Prince. Apologies for Tonda's echo!

Alanah and Austin chat Blue Prince, addictive video games, and Satisfactory.

This week, Mike, Alanah, and Austin chat to co-founder of Stoic, the creators of The Banner Saga and, more recently, Towerborne!
