Listen along this week as Ben and Trevor riff on some incredible new game designs based on random words, such as:

A licensed Firefly game with procedurally generated storylets and a Sea of Thieves-esque multiplayer;

A management and hacking sim where an orthodontist must fight back against Big Teeth;

A rustpunk VR golf game where you use your putting skills to beat enemies;

and more!

360: More Whimsy, Dammit!

This week Ben and Trevor return to using What3Words.com for the random words that power their improvised game designs. Three great games this week:

a contemporary thriller set in a quarantined nightclub, with Obra Dinn inspired detective elements;

travel across New Zealand in your truck, doing plastering jobs to make enough money to get to the place that reminds you of your love;

automate Santa's workshop across the ages as he deals with the growing population and ever-increasing demands of the world's children.
