Fantasy Strike is our new fighting game. We've just announced it and begun crowdfunding for it on Patreon. This podcast explains what Fantasy Strike is all about. We cover the high concept about making a fighting game more accessible from top to bottom than anything else we've seen, the specific game mechanics we chose to accomplish that, and the resulting dynamics of how it plays. Because it's unusual to crowdfund a game through Patreon, we also explain why we're doing that and what the advantages are. Hosts: David Sirlin, Richard "Leontes" Lopez, and Sean "MrGPhantome" Washington.

In this episode, we discuss uneven playfields in competitive games. That's when a competitive game gives some players a material advantage, rather than being fair. Although fairness should be a basic premise of a competitive game, MOST competitive games have unfortunately become uneven playfields, and players seem to accept this. That's tragic to Sirlin and Aphotix. Garcia1000 explains that his friends like kingmaker and collusion in games, which are usually considered bad properties.
