HELLOOO, Shenanites! In this tasty episode, we discuss avocado bugs, which came first: the chicken or the pancake, and organic pre-punched bananas. If you haven’t tried our new patented burrito cleanse, you’re missing out! Plus, get ready to sharpen your nose after we finally reveal our 2019 tagline!

  • Anonymous: Do packages come in any other platonic solids besides the cube?
  • Cerator: Is a player allowed to have more than one level in QA at the same time? If yes: Are all of those bumped up in the queue equally by playing levels of other players?

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.
