#35: Ethics in Design, Hotline Miami & Updates
About this episode
Jon and Dirk cover a variety of games they've played lately, including the new 'Walking Dead' expansion, 'Ascension' and '1775'. The discussion gets serious when 'Hotline Miami' comes up, and the crew debates the role of ethics in game design. They wrap up on a lighter note, describing the challenge of integrating mechanics and UI in a tabletop game, and how to instill life into fictional characters.
