Episode 23: Trickle-down Gamenomics

from Rascal News Hosted by Rascal News

Chase and Thomas professionalize the tabletop podcast space one news story at a time. GAMA makes some serious-sounding moves -- including the surprise resignation of executive directory John Stacy -- but that includes a not-so-serious "rebranding". Kickstarter workers go on strike. Game designers aren't getting paid by itch.io. An updated Cypher System somehow earns over $1 million. And that's just the first half! Later on, the pair discuss the joy of oracles, what it means to roleplay revolution, and the importance of good graphic and information design in tabletop games. Finally, they face off against the Question Dungeon's latest threats: mono-system concerns and the threat of Harry Potter entering Magic: The Gathering's Universes Beyond. -- Games we discuss: Ironsworn: Sundered Isles MIRU Revolt Shadowrun Notorious -- Hosted by Chase Taylor- Carter (@chasecarter.bsky.social). Featuring Thomas Manuel (@newmadras.bsky.social).‬ Theme song by People Need Goals. Cover art logo by Johan Nohr (@johannohr.bsky.social).
