Hiya, Shenanites! Grab your coffee, pull up a chair, and get your weekly Levelhead news fix! This week, we talk about the Zeigarnik effect, how to start a star war, and ear handle laser cannons. How can you snap while wearing a metal gauntlet? How do wings work in space? We just have so many questions.

Questions answered (abbreviated):

  • Fraser: Is there any killer feature that, if added to another engine, would cause you to switch away from GameMaker for whatever comes after Levelhead?
  • Beepom Dooproost: Are you guys excited about the upcoming changes to GML?
  • Lambip Juglow: With the recent changes to GML announced by YoYo Games, how do you think this will change the engine for professional use? How does Adam feel about GML now that it's closer to JavaScript?
  • MySecretWeapon: If you could bring one creature from your games to life in the real world, which would it be?
  • Beekie Boppaboop: If you could name a newly discovered planet, what would you call it?
  • Oopanoo Doozapee: With your experience at the Hackathon building an app and your newfound love for DevOps, have you guys considered building a productivity app?
  • CoffeeChemist: I love baking when I have the money to buy ingredients. Do you guys have any BUTTERTASTIC baking recipes that just taste so fing GOOD?!

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.
