About this episode
Mikael Kasurinen, the director of CONTROL: Resonant joins us this week to chat about his journey into game development, the intricacy of level design, and the willingness to go weird. Then we dive into Silent Hill: townfall a game Cohh and Zeke liked 80% of. XBOX continues to implode as multiple major dev studios seem to be shutting down, including Halo moving to Activision. Bungie recommits to Destiny while moving to unvault all of Destiny 2. Dune Awakening gets a single-player mode and Zeke gushes over the new surprise hit Dressmaker!
