The Sausage Factory: 332 – We Are The Caretakers by Heart Shaped Games

The Sausage Factory

Chris O'Regan chats to Scott Brodie of Heart Shaped Games about the design and development of their wildlife reserve based tactical RPG, We Are The Caretakers. Dealing with difficult subjects in an abstract way can dilute the topic at hand, thankfully in this case this has not happened, at all. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/sausage/TSF_Episode332.mp3   Music is by Jon Parra and can be bought from here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1595080/We_Are_The_Caretakers_Soundtrack/ 1. We Are The Caretakers Theme2. The Dead Crescent3. Uncovered Night The Sausage Factory 332 was edited by Chris O'Regan The Sausage Factory is an interview-based podcast that lifts the lid on the makers of videogames. It examines the way in which games are made by asking the very people who create them, though the questions asked aren't just about game design, they also cover how developers made their start and what inspires them as creators. Split into two halves, the first segment delves into what makes the developers tick by asking about how they started, what and who inspires them and what games they are currently playing, whereas the second part of the show covers the game that they are currently working on and the thought processes behind its development. So, if you really want to hear about a game's gestation in full and frank detail then you have found the right podcast.
