The SML Podcast – Episode 335: Off the Deep End

Amanda Gardner of The Deep End Games joins to chat about the game Perception!ut the tense psychological first person narrative about a blind woman and an abandoned estate. We chat about the creation of the game, the use of echo location in the game, designing the visuals for echo location, and how Amanda likes to consider her game “spoopy” and not horror!

After Amanda heads out, Cole and I cover the news of the week including Xbox Games with Gold and PS Plus titles for December, new Xbox BC additions, Dead Space 3 in EA Access, voice actors returning to Life is Strange, and tons more! Plus a Nightmare Boy giveaway and reviews!

Akuatica: Turtle Racing from Tianyu Studio Software is a stylish action adventure game across all the environments of the sea. DarkMika writes in a review of Illville: Return Instructions, a gloomy English 3D adventure from Tusha Works. Jacob Garner writes in a review of Game Dev Tycoon, the business management hit from Greenheart Games now on iOS as well as CODumentary, a feature length look at the Call of Duty phenomenon.

Tim Ekkebus joins to review the ship swapping vertical shmup Xenoraid from 10tons. Tom Miller checks out SUMOMAN, a sumo based puzzle platforming adventure from Tequilabyte Studio. Bush League Hockey is aggressive, beer-fueled, M-rated hockey with an awesome soundtrack from V7 Entertainment. Tom also checks out Hyakki Castle, a first person adventure RPG from Asakusa Studios and Happinet!

Finally, we end the show with a pack of songs from the newly released Scarlet Moon Christmas Volume II!
