Meet the wild—and sometimes explosive—world of land art, where artists craft masterpieces with dynamite and bulldozers. In our Season 2 premiere, guest Dylan Thuras, cofounder of Atlas Obscura, takes us off road and into the minds of the artists who literally reshaped parts of the Southwest. These works aren’t meant to be easy to reach—or to explain—but they just might change how you see the world. Land art you’ll visit in this episode: - Double Negative and City by Michael Heizer (Garden Valley, Nevada) - Spiral Jetty by Robert Smithson (Great Salt Lake, Utah) - Sun Tunnels by Nancy Holt (Great Basin Desert, Utah) - Lightning Field by Walter De Maria (Catron County, New Mexico) - Roden Crater by James Turrell (Painted Desert, Arizona) Via Podcast is a production of AAA Mountain West Group.…

Time for another game dev podcast! 🎙 You've been so kind & encouraging about last week's episode that I just had to keep talking. Let's do this. We're discussing: On loving & hating marketing Ignore the "Great Attractors" Failing to follow your own advice Your tools serving you VS getting in your way Thoughts on crowd-funding 🎸 Music Simple but Effective Phantom Anthem Wubs Wanderer Back at it I'm Just Going to Call it Dubstep 🫧 Play the Pixel Washer demo! Notice me burying the lead much? Yeah, I've got a new playable demo for you! Have a relaxing time power washing beautiful pixels in Pixel Washer ! That's the pitch! It's just gorgeous 2D pixels that you need to clean. That's it. Some of you may remember Weekend game jam: Pixel Washer – yup, this is further development of that concept! It's early times. I'll probably completely redo how the power washing itself works, which is all the game is about, but do play the demo & let me know what you think in the Valadria Discord .…

Make the Game: Unlock your game's hidden potential with a saturation analysis 24:04

לפני 3 years24:04

24:04

Let's talk about a saturation analysis, which is a tool you can use on your game design to see what all it can do. Examining the game of chess, what all is it capable of? There's an 8x8 board, pieces can be moved, removed, or modified, but what else? How would you get ideas if you were working on chess but with a new twist? This tool shines a light on where your design could go. See also Into the Breach by Subset Games, which is a brilliant and innovative design.
