Not dead yet

I’m not dead yet! I’ve just had a terrible cold and then went to PAX East and then to some speaking engagements and have been unable to record anything. Sorry about that. I’ve got a great episode lined up for you when I’m back from the USA (next week) and I’ll be able to get it out then!

Thanks for your patience!

Not Just a Game Episode 1: Life is Strange and Social Norms

This is the first episode of my new podcast. Please be gentle, I am working with new equipment and a new style of media! But any technical feedback welcome (I think I’ve solved the crackling in the microphone now though!).

In this episode, I am talking about Life is Strange and social norms. What’s a social norm? Listen and find out!

Are there any games where you struggled with social norms vs. expectations of the gameplay? Comment below!
