[Ep256] A Bespoke Physics Experience

Author: Butterscotch Shenanigans April 29, 2020 Duration: 1:14:37

Halloo, Shenanites! This week, we discuss the in-between space, the cruelest barb, and pillars. You need them to hold things up sometimes. The launch of Levelhead is IMMINENT, and it’s coming out HOT, so check the batteries in your smoke alarms and get your conspiracy theories in order. Levelhead will be hitting your favorite storefronts TOMORROW, APRIL 30th! Links at https://levelhead.io .

Questions answered (abbreviated):

  • Mopait Flatunk: Twice now, just as I've started up Levelhead, my wife has set off the smoke alarms in the house and forced me jump off the computer to save the family, or at least to get the dog to quit howling. Is this a conspiracy? Is she just trying to get me away so she can play the game? Should I just not let her cook anymore? Or is Levelhead just that SMOKE'N?!?!?!?
  • Fraser_: How did you decide on Thursday, April 30th to launch Levelhead?
  • Flyhoppie Axerompa: Sam, a long time ago you spoke about how at the end of Crashlands development you had to pull back on your art skills a bit to make sure the game looks consistent. Did you find yourself doing the same thing for LevelHead?
  • challosis: Do you have design pillars that you followed for Levelhead?

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.
