139: Survival Time!

This week's game idea pitch theme is: "Paint"! Claire imagines a game where you mix magical pigments while you paint for a patron and Isaac spends a lot of time describing drawing "under" rather than "over" with his Real Time Strategy game idea. Then Isaac RANTS about the new edition of The Horus Heresy, a tabletop wargame. Trust me, he brings it around to general game design... eventually. He really gets there!This is Make That Game, the podcast where we talk about the latest and greatest new video games... that aren't ever going to get made. We pitch 'em, you make 'em (if you want, nobody's forcing you I guess). Then we break down games we've played by game design elements we liked or didn't like so much. To close out the show we have the rapid fire round, where we generate 3 random words and come up with a game idea and design incorporating them! Needless to say, it's a riot!If you're looking for a video game design focused podcast, we might have just the one for you!01:15 Claire pitches her paint water potion game06:51 Isaac pitches a painting RTS14:32 Isaac discusses The Horus Heresy! 35:49 Rapid fire round!
