Welcome to this latest Space Game Junkie Podcast my friends! This week, Jim, Hunter, Spaz and I sit down with Dave Williams – Co-Founder and Everything Designer at Jellyfish Games — to talk about their recently successfully Kickstarted space station building and personality meshing sim, Astrobase Command. While we didn’t get to touch the game our own selves, we still, I think, came up with good questions to ask Dave about his game, and the game itself does sound pretty awesome. A good portion of the show, however, was a broader discussion about the state of the games industry, why there hasn’t been a crash yet (but there will likely still be one), the difficulties of running a Kickstarter campaign and a LOT more. Dave is an industry veteran, so he had a lot of awesome insights, and I think it speaks well for Astrobase Command that he came across so knowledgeable and passionate about gaming in general. Overall, it was a great, great show, and we hope you enjoy it.
