Martin from Soupmasters, the lead designer of Big Boy Boxing joins Ben this week to talk about game development as it relates to this week’s word! First the hosts talk about what they are up to. Martin is moving offices, coding facial expressions, and not playing recently purchased games (but maybe next week). Ben… he is trying to contain his excitement about his recent pre-order for a game inspired by a Paul Verhoeven cult movie classic! Then it’s on to the definition and coincidentally learning two Swedish words in the process. Next, Ben has lots of questions for Martin about his cartoon, movie, and video game inspirations. Finally, they engage in a side conversation about their favorite Christopher Nolan movie Tenet, and leave a mystery unsolved… for now.
