- 5:05out the show floor um we're going to be recording interviews and Impressions and
- 5:12my voice is hopefully not going to be breaking anymore the main question that
- 5:15we need to ask right now is to Luke and that is what is going to happen to your
- 5:21achievement score when we're here I've got that covered I actually went out and
- 5:25brought a Windows phone so I'm still getting achievements as we speak how
- 5:29does that help you cuz Luke has a streak now what's your streak 180 days now 180
- 5:35that's impressive so you get you've had an achievement every day for 180 days
- 5:38every day for the last 180 days and that time I've got 1,200
- 5:41achievements that's a lot yeah so you don't limit yourself to One A Day No no
- 5:46no at least one a day yeah right so how do you get achievements on the phone um
- 5:50the the app's got just games with Windows it's Windows games with Windows
- 5:54or something whatever it is so just mobile games mobile games so you could
- 5:57play specific windows Xbox phones so you can play Angry Birds yes yes there is
- 6:03Angry Birds well there you go very interesting let's uh let's head into all
- 6:08right well let's uh let's go do some ping
- 6:12bye so uh what did we just play I mean I know what we played but do the listeners
- 6:17know what we played we just played the new rise of the Tomb Raider yeah what
- 6:20you guys think it was cool I mean it was just a demo but it was beautiful yeah it
- 6:25look it's it it's very similar to the first one the controls were a little bit
- 6:29different which can me first but it's beautiful it really is and pretty much
- 6:33it's it's just a direct sequel It's yeah pretty much the controls the I found the
- 6:37controls the same but the whole sense where you find where you're going and
- 6:42things glow to find Collectibles were you guys finding Collectibles yes yeah I
- 6:45did find a few yeah yeah I couldn't figure out the the the use your sensors
- 6:49button was different that confused me at first we actually also used the elite
- 6:52controller oh yeah I've never used one of those that's the first time I've used
- 6:55that I don't think that wasn't an elite controller there was no pedals on the
- 6:58back there was oh you think it was like some custom
- 7:01controller I think it was just a custom controller the elites got the paddles oh
- 7:05okay cuz this had some knobs on the back and it had that that cool uh the
- 7:10different dpad oh no I don't know he's not convinced I'm not convinced all
- 7:14right well I mean yeah the action in it was great the I mean it felt like I was
- 7:19I only finished the first Tom raid the other day and it felt like I was back in
- 7:22it so I'm really I'm looking forward to this one comes out November 10th so it's
- 7:25going to be a toss up between that and Fallout 4 so I getting both yeah I'm
- 7:30definitely going to have to get both cuz that that was that was really great and
- 7:33the story so from what the brief story that I saw seems really interesting
- 7:37seems more Indiana Jones style than the the first one was more of a survival
- 7:42story this one seems more like an Indiana Jones Style Adventure first one
- 7:45was very scary yeah I had one problem and I work it out my sound wasn't right
- 7:50and I kept hearing I work out it was her talking but it sound like this ominous
- 7:54tone that was sort of muffled and really understand what they saying I thought
- 7:58they talking another language and I went oh headset is plugged in ah oh there you
- 8:02go so there you go listeners make sure you plug your headset in when you play
- 8:06the game all right we're going to go check out something else Y Cool [Music]
- 8:13bye all right we just witnessed the panel for DX mankind divided what do you
- 8:18think I'm thinking it's looking very interesting one thing I liked in the
- 8:21panel they started off showing this CG trailer which I wasn't too excited about
- 8:25but then they showed actual gameplay and it's looking good yeah the CG trailer
- 8:29are always impressive but they kind of show you know like it's not the game
- 8:34it's like Jensen's running around doing all this cool [ __ ] but you don't get to
- 8:37do that in the game so I'm glad yeah we saw some gameplay um the cool
- 8:41augmentations from the first game are back and then there some new ones uh I
- 8:44think strike your interest one thing I actually quite like wasn't the actual
- 8:48argumentations but the days you've always been able to play your own way go
- 8:52whichever way but now brought in vertical so you can actually climb up
- 8:55onto roofs to go around so it's actually really increased what you can do yeah
- 8:59the the section that they showed that you have to kind of infiltrate and get
- 9:02into the theater and it seemed like there were just a lot of ways you could
- 9:05do that like a whole lot you can sneak in hide vents climb on the roofs or run
- 9:10and Gun if that's how you play apparently yeah you can run right around
- 9:12the back of the building and find some more stuff that we didn't even see or
- 9:17yeah or you could just shoot everybody so what we saw is probably still an
- 9:20early build cuz it doesn't come out till February yeah they got some time so no
- 9:25I'm really looking forward to it yeah and we had surprise guest War inspector
- 9:29the cre ofx the original um and so yeah he talked about some cool stuff about
- 9:35the first game and his influences and all that kind of stuff uh it was pretty
- 9:39interesting yeah and I'm excited for the game yeah I this they one thing they've
- 9:43said they've changed they' changed the boss fights from the last one cuz they
- 9:46killed the last game get rid of them yeah don't need boss fights yeah well I
- 9:51mean they were all right it's just that they were I don't know the bosses were
- 9:54really overpowered if you didn't focus on combat yeah they didn't fit into that
- 9:57game that those that type of battle Yeah cuz I could one kill everyone else but
- 10:01the boss was no yeah the first boss in particular I got passed by glitching him
- 10:06I got him jammed in the corner and then just kind of picked him off I got up to
- 10:09the first boss H couldn't kill him and didn't play the game again right so so
- 10:14you never finished it never finished it I want to and I'm going to go back and
- 10:16play it so you just learned a bunch of spoilers in that yes yes I did well
- 10:20that's that's that's unfortunate but it's okay I don't care about spoilers
- 10:23SPO anything you want for me really y really yep well I think that's that's
- 10:28about all we have have to say cuz I'm I'm about to spoil some stuff for
- 10:34[Music] Luke all right so we're talking to Jason anak am I right with Creator Jason
- 10:40Anarchy of the New Hampshire anarchies uh to steal a penny arcade joke there
- 10:45and new uh drinking Quest is your game yes yeah it's like a drinking uh
- 10:50tabletop RPG hybrid so it's like a simple Dungeons and Dragons but when
- 10:53your character dies in the game you have to chug your drink in real life to
- 10:56continue uh so the whole game is built around that sense of real life danger
- 10:59okay so how do you play is it like a deck builder um no it's um the beginning
- 11:04of the game it's really quick setup you just pick one of the pre-made characters
- 11:07and uh you just fill out your character sheet they come with the game and then
- 11:09from there you just have four piles of cards uh those are basically the dungeon
- 11:13master so everybody gets to be a hero the game gets harder as you go through
- 11:16you pick up a card on your turn you do silly saving throws and you fight a lot
- 11:20of monsters when you fight a monster it's a one-on-one fight to the death you
- 11:22either win the points and coins and move on or you lose you get nothing you chug
- 11:26your drink immediately uh but then you can come back next round like nothing
- 11:29happens so so you die frequently in this game it's a dangerous world yeah it's uh
- 11:33yeah how drunk do you get in this game uh well it's uh it's half RPG so it's
- 11:37actually a pretty reasonable drinking game as far as they go most drinking
- 11:40games are drink as much as you can as fast as you can don't finish the game
- 11:44yeah yeah this is a 2hour game it's still half RPG um so you know there's
- 11:49there's a balance there's kind of like a check-in place to make sure people
- 11:52aren't doing double chugs and going to the hospital and things like that so at
- 11:55the end of the game Whoever has the most points wins and then whoever has the
- 11:58least amount of points they lose but they also chug the most so they kind of
- 12:01win in their own way so really fun balance everybody wins and how many play
- 12:04tests did you do on this uh I did a lot of play test but yeah disappointingly so
- 12:08most of them were just you know sober and just seeing you know who who gets
- 12:11what you know amount of chugs and things watch other people get drunk exactly
- 12:15yeah well those are actually some pretty fun games too when you're not drinking
- 12:18it's uh yeah um but anyway yeah it's uh yeah there's three games in the series
- 12:23uh they mostly had a print but we just came out with the new Deluxe box that's
- 12:25got all three games in it everything's been recolored remastered and uh there's
- 12:29a fourth game's worth of brand new stuff in there and uh the fan favorite so far
- 12:32is there's a brand new Quest called kegga Man 2 where you fight eight
- 12:35different robot bosses each other own alcohol related power and uh if you beat
- 12:39them you can get that stupid alcohol power and use it later in the game so
- 12:43it's uh awesome it's totally original I made that up myself it's not based on
- 12:46anything but uh someone recommended today I should make a video game sides
- 12:49scroller out of it and I think that might be a really good idea so awesome
- 12:52yeah we'll see how that goes if people aren't here how can they find you uh
- 12:55just drinking quest.com uh we do ship to Australia uh we under we undercut the
- 12:59shipping cost by a lot um and uh yeah I'm always happy to send games here i'
- 13:04got a lot of love for Australia and it basically stems from this uh I did I did
- 13:07a Euro bus tour like 5 years ago and the bus was like half Canadians like myself
- 13:11and half Australians and half Australians that were all from Melbourne
- 13:14too so on the first day I don't know who how it started but somebody said
- 13:17something like my country can drink more than your country and so it was just two
- 13:21weeks of non-stop Canada versus Australia drinking contest every day
- 13:25I've never experienced anything like it is that how you got the idea for this
- 13:27game uh it was the next year that I came out with the first game so it was uh I'm
- 13:31sure it didn't hurt it was a slow seed yeah yeah so it uh yeah it's I got a lot
- 13:37of love for Australia they're they're funny they' got a great sense of humor
- 13:41try we try and I hope that the money is eventually called dollar dues I think
- 13:44that's hilarious I think that's great so yeah who do I have to vote for to get
- 13:48that get that to happen yeah all right awesome well thank you very much yeah

- 14:10it's made by CD project red in Poland so I reckon they've just gone to some

- 22:17where you f around right yeah so we played four player 4v4 and all on the
- 22:20one screen mhm yeah and uh we did we did very badly very badly so it's fun you
- 22:25would you would buy that you would buy and play that game drunk at a potty
- 22:27absolutely I mean I would play it sober also at a party interesting interesting
- 22:33party wow that's that's quite that's quite an endorsement from you guys so
- 22:35what they say they aiming for a January release on Steam and then hopefully
- 22:39after that they're looking at Xbox PlayStation awesome all right so
- 22:44achievements I'll be getting on the Xbox right so you'll buy like every
- 22:48other Xbox game yes yeah yeah all right great all right cool so check it out um
- 22:54arm arm and gelatinous here with granley day I want you
- 23:00introduce yourself in your game yeah hi so um the game's called keep defense and
- 23:05um it's a cross between a trading card game and a to defense game and we have
- 23:10cards that um that are a little different than regular trading cards
- 23:13because they level up as you play the game and there's a and basically what
- 23:17happens is that you it's a multiplayer game so it's PVP PVP is the end game but
- 23:21it has does have a 40-hour campaign in the game wow so that's through the
- 23:25campaign through pvps how you generate money which allows you to level up when
- 23:28you playing the cards yeah and so what happens is in the PVP one person plays a
- 23:32defensive deck one person plays an aggressive deck and so the whole the
- 23:35whole whole idea is is to defend yourself against your this orb and um he
- 23:40just lost actually so basically what happens is that the attacker spawns
- 23:44creatures spawn points Y and um the strategy involved in how you sort of
- 23:49attack it and then the defender has hero cards and the hero cards drop down they
- 23:53put the hero cards where they feel like they way to defend and there's different
- 23:56ranges and different sort of area effect spells and there's spells you can use to
- 23:59do damage your characters and creatures as you're playing them yeah and um yeah
- 24:03so it has like I mean it's we want people to be able to obviously get into
- 24:07the game really quickly and that's sort of the trading card mechanic people are
- 24:10familiar with that but then it has this end game sort of stats with the the
- 24:14training cards let me just show you something yeah
- 24:20sure so you can see here and I'll get you actually images these for the
- 24:23podcast yeah great but you can see so what happens is that as the cards level
- 24:26up they get additional perks and so they start with only two and then as they
- 24:30level up they get more and then what happens is that and that's where sort of
- 24:34the end game play so like you level up cars and then those cards are more
- 24:37powerful Us in PvP there's all these additional perks that you get um yeah so
- 24:41it's a it's um yeah it's pretty simple it's very cool yeah so like you you lay
- 24:47the card down where you want it to appear on the map correct that's exactly
- 24:51right so they're going to play I think in a second we can watch again yeah
- 24:53great um so this is just a this is just a pre-alpha build so as I said we're

- 28:07thanks for talking to us [Music]
- 28:16cheers we are playing the Warlock of firetop mountain by Tin Man games this
- 28:20is an adaptation of the old Fighting Fantasy roleplaying game that uh I
- 28:24certainly have somewhere at home and you guys may have when you were younger if
- 28:28you're about our age in the 80s they were very popular um it's just really
- 28:33cool it's like um like a visual companion to the book so the the text
- 28:38still comes up as it would have in the book and you choose the option but but
- 28:41there is like a 3D map and you have a character who moves around uh you know
- 28:46reacting to what you say and then when you into a room where you into combat
- 28:49you can um kind of interact with things uh there's like a sneaking mini game and
- 28:55like a combat game um and yeah it's it's really cool what do you think Luke oh
- 29:00I'm really enjoying it I just wonder if I'm allowed to skip back a few pages if
- 29:04we make a wrong choice or not oh right so you can keep your finger in the page
- 29:08so you can see just in case yeah yeah so that's a classic Choose Your Own
- 29:12Adventure um strategy I'll call it a strategy yeah so this is really cool um
- 29:19I definitely recommend you check it out they've got a Kickstarter on at the
- 29:22moment um if you go to bit. l/w warlock
- 29:26KS uh and we we put a link to this in the show notes uh you can check out
- 29:31their Kickstarter this is a really cool game if you're a fan of choose your own
- 29:33adventures and and it's like a Choose Your Own Adventure with combat and and
- 29:36some other mini games like that's how the books were kind of um unique in the
- 29:41in at the time because they combined Dungeons and Dragons with with Choose
- 29:45Your Own Adventure it's I think it's actually way I'm looking at it's got a
- 29:48very nice learning curve like it very started off the missions the fight
- 29:52started off really simple and they're slowly starting to get that little bit
- 29:55harder yep yep yeah so it's really cool um check it out we'll uh we'll link to
- 30:01it um in the
- 30:09notes right so I'm here with Ben from SMG Studios looking at death squ can you
- 30:12explain a bit about the game for our listeners well it's a simple premise the game is
- 30:18cooperative it's a Cooperative game about getting to your circle you've got
- 30:23to figure out how to uh how to navigate our levels get to a certain point
- 30:27without killing your teammates uh that's about it any much
- 30:32anything more I say I'll probably spoil it it's it's better experienced yeah
- 30:37know it's pretty interesting so any wrong move you make could mean the end
- 30:40for one of your teammates it could be it could be so communication probably plays
- 30:44a big part yeah yeah uh we're not quite sure yet if playing it with four people
- 30:51is the hardest mode we think it is we think that is the expert mode are there
- 30:55different puzzles for different number of players yes yeah great yeah some of
- 30:59the levels we have there are some four player versions of two player levels
- 31:04yeah uh so that's good it's nice it's nice to have a a familiar familiar
- 31:10puzzle yeah uh to just sort of set yourself up for some more false false security and so
- 31:17what platforms will this be on it'll definitely be on Steam Y and we're
- 31:21hoping for uh PlayStation and Xbox as well okay cool and do you know when
- 31:25abouts or not yet probably mid okay awesome
- 31:30uh but yeah we're having a lot of fun working on the really really simple uh
- 31:37simple ground work on it it's just a very simple framework Y and we're just
- 31:42trying to keep everything as stripped as possible yeah very understandable and
- 31:46basic but very complicated underneath everything it looks fun everyone looks
- 31:50like they're having fun playing it so seems like it's going lots of lots of
- 31:53cussing lots of screaming lots of micromanagement gone wrong yeah
- 31:59it's good time thank you and where can people find out more about it if they're
