TAPP 123 - Watching Over You

from The Action Points Podcast

In this episode: There's going to be some Overwatch in this episode. No escaping it. We talk about ethical game design, particularly in relation to representation and monetisation. We also catch up on what we've been up to since we last recorded more than a month ago: Jackson was at AMAZE, Evan's been playing Dark Souls 3 and reading up on it in You Died, Dan's been playing Pokemon GO and T.I.M.E Stories, and I've been playing Alpaca Pakapaka and reading Something New and Relish by Lucy Knisley.
