Up Up Down Down

The podcast for grownups who like video games. @apike and @nigelbrooke host an interesting guest each episode to tackle a topic about making games.

[Konami @Konami]

We are saddened to hear about the passing of Kazuhisa Hashimoto, a deeply talented producer who first introduced the world to the "Konami Code".

Our thoughts are with Hashimoto-san's family and friends at this time. Rest In Peace.

“We Made a Game”: In this very special episode, we chatted with @malinsundberg about the turn-based spy strategy game we made, @PlaySpies.

There will be at least one more episode of Up Up Down Down, to discuss the game we've been putting the final touches on! In the meantime though, if you liked one of our hosts, there's a 50% chance you'll like Allen's new show @funfactfm. 🚀

We have two episodes recorded and waiting to be edited - just after I finish my playthrough of Restoring a Failed Hard Drive 2.

@burnhamrobertp For sure - they seem like an evolutionary offshoot, perhaps like how roguelikes are an RPG offshoot?
