Massive interviews episode today as we cover two new releases and a game on Kickstarter!

First up the show welcomes Alex Preston of Heart Machine to talk about his new release Hyper Light Drifter! We discuss the development of the game, the origins of the “Heart Machine” company name, the wildly successful Kickstarter campaign for the game, and massage circles?

Next up, Ethan Maddix of Whitebox Interactive joins the show to chat about their new game Bear vs. Methlab! We chat about the pure insanity of the game, them attempting to get the game Kickstarted RIGHT NOW (go back it), whether their company is Whitebox Interactive or Whitebox Games, and all the drugs necessary to create a game called Bear vs. Methlab.

Finally, we welcome Matt Small of Vector Unit back to the show for his second visit to chat about their new game Riptide GP: Renegade! We chat about the development of the game, the Xbox delays and possible cross-buy with Windows 10, the wizardry needed to get such a great looking game into such a small file size, and Matt reveals the Big Head Mode code on the show!

The episode is littered with songs from SML favorites The OneUps!
