[Ep150] Tangent Stones

[Ep150] Tangent Stones

Author: Butterscotch Shenanigans May 16, 2018 Duration: 1:05:56

Hey there, Shenanites! On the sesquicentennial episode of the cast, we discuss the Combover patch, emblazoned tangential stones, and how adults need more exuberance in their lives. Emphatically emphasize a flower bush! Maybe spend the rest of your day skipping! After all, humans are just tubes with legs, and if a learning curve is steep, it’s all the easier to climb.

Note: At 52 min, the dictionary Sam is referencing is the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows (https://www.dictionaryofobscuresorrows.com).

Questions answered (abbreviated):

  • Anonymous: Do you guys think you'd be making games today if Sam didn't have to face cancer, and crash-the-lands right into cancer's face?
  • Woland77: What would you dooOOOOooo for a chocolate-coated brick of vanilla ice cream?
  • imcade: Do any of you feel debilitated when there is too much choice in games?
  • RetroBananaManNL: How did you get in contact with Fat Bard for your music? Just a lucky shot or a thoughtful decision?

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.
