    Brian and I are both ill, so apologies for not sounding as clearly. Also, he's travelling and has bad internet connection, which affects how natural the conversations sound. I hope I fixed it with editing.

    Tokyo 42: Interview with SMAC Games — The Combo Podcast

    Tokyo 42: Interview with SMAC Games — The Combo Podcast

    A fantastic episode with Sean Wright and Maciek Strychalski of SMAC Games, the brothers who developed Tokyo 42 here in London.

    Tokyo 42 is perhaps one of the most unique titles of this year and recent memory, with a beautiful blend of game design, mechanics, and music.

    This episode is all about their experience developing the game; the difficulties they faced and the lessons they learned.

    It was an absolute pleasure to speak to them and I hope you find this episode informative and enjoyable.

    [Tokyo 42](http://tokyo42.com) is available on [Steam](http://store.steampowered.com/app/490450/Tokyo_42/) and Xbox One with a Playstation 4 release around July.

    The Combo Podcast - Long Time No See

    The Combo Podcast - Long Time No See

    Combo is back!

    We had a lot of things to catch-up on. The Mass Effect series, Shogun 2, Rise of the Tomb Raider and more. Lots of good discussions, and even came up with a solution to solve world hunger by pulling a few sliders.

    This episode was incredibly fun to make, so let me know if you enjoyed it.

    The Combo Podcast: Architecture in Deus Ex: HR

    The Combo Podcast: Architecture in Deus Ex: HR

    A serious discussion on architecture and design in video games. The guest Simon (that's Dr Simon to you!) with a PhD in Architecture has a strong understanding and appreciation of the art. He has been fascinated by video game design in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, a game that really stands out with the attention to detail it pays to design.

    Outro music by @OutsetInitiative

Great show

Like the title says, this has potential - the two hosts compliment each other and this sparks informal but informative discussion that is fun to listen to. I hope it improves further in future with more of the same!

Informative and entertaining

I liked the episode with the Tokyo 42 devs which was funny but good questions were asked
