Welcome back, Shenanites! We’re at GDC this week, but we made sure this tasty podcast was ready for your waiting ears! In this ep, we talk about extended metaphors, making jam days, and putting the soul back into stuff. Here’s your question of the week: are disciplines squishy, or just the people inside them?

Corrections:

  • Adam was talking about Benedictine when he mentioned herbal liqueur.
  • When Sam says “matcha” from Uruguay, he means mate (mah-tay) as in yerba mate tea.

Questions answered (abbreviated):

  • challosis: Do y'all still have studio jam days every week?
  • Anonymous: What sort of data structures do you guys use for levelhead collision checking (lists, maps, trees, etc.)?
  • Woland77: What is a big gaming-related misconception which you have had disabused? How did that realization change your work?
  • Mennalus: What are you favorite refreshing adult beverages?
  • the_rumpus: Where do you guys get your sound effects for your commercial games?
  • Beringtord: What are some difficulties you guys encountered when you started up the company? How did you guys get to be as successful as you are now?

Pull up a chair and pour something warm. Each week, the folks behind the award-winning indie studio Butterscotch Shenanigans-the creators of Crashlands-sit down to untangle the messy, rewarding, and often absurd reality of making games. Coffee with Butterscotch feels less like a formal broadcast and more like eavesdropping on a freewheeling conversation between friends who’ve been in the trenches. You’ll hear them dissect the nuts and bolts of development, from art pipelines to bug-squashing, but the discussion rarely stays in the technical lane. It veers into the philosophy of creativity, the rollercoaster of running a small business, and the strange habits that fuel productivity. The tone is unfiltered and genuinely funny, because the hosts don’t separate the work from the life surrounding it. This podcast digs into how to solve problems, ship your projects, and keep your sanity while doing it, all served with a heavy dose of camaraderie and self-deprecating humor. It’s a weekly dose of insight and laughter for anyone curious about the stories behind the screen, whether you're a seasoned developer, an aspiring creator, or just someone who enjoys peeking behind the curtain of how things are made.
