  1. Hi guys.
    Sorry for not commenting the last few episodes, but much trouble going on in real life, did noit find enough time to listen and enjoy your podcast 🙁

    I played a lot of Magic the Gathering becuase its short and i could play it on my own. Besides i played some WoW Classic WOTLK. And some time i spent with Life is strange true colors (still did not finish it)

    Dorfromantik: I told you its addictive .. i love it as well 🙂 Its easy to calm down and play a round, easy listening smooth music … and you dont get anrgy if it ends .. you dont “loose” or get killed or stuff like that.

    Krypto Stuff: i will not miss if if it would be gone. I am still not into it and i dont think i will be the next time … so … i dont care 😀

    Demon Souls / Dark Souls: OMG … this games freaked me out … i tried them so often but they are so damn hard … did not finish any (besides Bloodbourne if this counts).

    System Shock / Bio Shock: never played System Shock and only some hours of BioShock 1…

    So long .. stay healthy guys and thanks for your effort you put in any episode <3

    Greetings,
    Ralf

The year has ended, as the last podcast of 2016 was recorded last week, and released today. There’s much discussion that was cut out and saved for a future outtakes episode. Regardless, there’s plenty of show to go around, and the sound quality is also far better than ever thanks to Jonah getting a professional headset and mic.

This week’s news includes:

  • Nintendo registers trademark that could point to a SNES Classic Edition
  • Windows 10 may be getting a new “Game Mode” option
  • The next game by That Dragon, Cancer‘s dev is not what you’d expect

This week’s Question of the Week is “What game in 2017 might you buy that you normally wouldn’t?”

Gaming Flashback: The Incredible MachineGaming Flashback: The Incredible Machine

The Incredible Machine (TiM) is a game designed and developed by Kevin Ryan and produced by Jeff Tunnel (now co-founder of GarageGames and their successful title Marble Blast Ultra on the 360 and co-founder in Dynamix makers of A-10 Tank Killer and The Red Baron). At the time, The Incredible Machine series came out of the shop known as Jeff Tunnel Productions.

Jeff Tunnel Productions published the first Incredible Machine games from 1993 to 1995 while Sierra Entertainment published all the rest of their titles all the way up to 2001. What is The Incredible Machines all about? It’s a game where you must build a series of Rube Goldberg devices in a “needlessly complex fashion” all to perform some simple tasks. That is the entire point to a Rube Goldberg device, which was originally defined as “accomplishing by extremely complex roundabout means what actually or seemingly could be done simply.”

I think everyone has seen a Rube Goldberg device, their are examples in science museums, and entire Myth Busters Episode about them, they appear in many movies (Goonies used one to open the fence to let in Chunk after he does his dance as did Doc Brown in Back to the Future to cook his breakfast and get his dog food).
