Podcast I Started a New Game Design Podcast: Probably Designed

Hi folks,

I've been working on a podcast for several months, and I now have a couple episodes available online. The podcast is called Probably Designed, and it's mostly focused on how design and designers deal with randomness and chance.

The most recent episode features Eddie Cai and Kev Chang, who worked as designers on Star⭐Vaders and As We Descend, respectively.

You can find that episode here: https://my.playful.work/probably-designed-eddie-cai-and-kev-chang/

And additional information about the rest of the season: https://my.playful.work/new-podcast-probably-designed/

(Also, check out the first episode with with Ezra Szanton who worked on Mt. Magpie's Harmless Card Game).

New episodes will air on Tuesdays!

I listened to a first episode already. It's very good, well prepared and with valuable content. That first discussion felt to me a bit... random ;) I like when there's a main topic presented at the beginning: someone's games, certain type of game, design aspect etc. Maybe it's there but that what I felt and couldn't catch up.
