[Ep188] Mucous Madness

[Ep188] Mucous Madness

Author: Butterscotch Shenanigans January 30, 2019 Duration: 1:14:52

Hello, Shenanites! This week, we discuss crates full of yetis, bug stomping, and memory palace walks. It’s still all about that DevOps. Plus, check out our shiny new podcast page (https://beta.bscotch.net/podcast), currently in beta! Soon our old page can slink off into the night.

Questions answered (abbreviated):

  • ANGRY MUFFIN: So, I asked that question like a year and a half ago. So, to alleviate confusion and add context, could you answer that question before this one?
  • RetroBananaManNL: How do you reflect after a gamejam? And how much time should you set out between jams to reflect?
  • CoffeeChemist: So the UK has the first game dev union. I'm very curious what the bscotch bros think of it.
  • Woland77: Game developers should probably unionize. Unions are great! But you are all Indies. What do you think? Would unionization in the AAA Dev world impact Indie Developers? Do you see any benefits or complications coming your way if that were to happen?
  • Angrymuffin: In episode 137, you talked about how having a blizzard subscription instead of a WOW subscription would be okay and may even feel less like buying a product. You hinted that this “may be the future of Rumpus.” Can this POSSIBLY BE SO?! Is this something that would be widely accepted or CRIPPLINGLY REJECTED?

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.
