  • A show about video games but better

    5 star show 5 star run time. From waypoint to remap this team has kept my interest and love for games for years. But it is not just the video games, it’s the social commentary, the own self criticism of habits in and out of gaming and also just how hard it is to exist in these times. A good laugh and a great opinion on what we call gaming. As my interest in gaming content has highs and lows I always come back to listen to the cast at remap radio. Thanks for all you do!

  • Wears you down

    Political-leaning gaming podcast with no challenging or insightful debate because everyone shares the same ideological opinions on everything.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Two Friends and a Naive Dream: Make a Cinematic Platformer
Q: What hidden advantages did you get by having a background in film and television when making a game, and what do you feel now looking back at Planet of Lana 2?
We reflect on transferable skills like production discipline, scheduling, and cross-disciplinary collaboration, acknowledging both naiveté and lifelong experience in moving from film to game development and how that shaped creative decisions.
Two Friends and a Naive Dream: Make a Cinematic Platformer
Q: Talk me through your process of being a writer on a game that does not have traditional dialogue, as you see in many other video games.
We explain how silence and visual storytelling push us to rely on showing rather than telling, with a constructed language and careful animation and music to convey emotion and narrative without conventional dialogue.
Two Friends and a Naive Dream: Make a Cinematic Platformer
Q: But could the two of you introduce yourselves to my audience?
Adam and I discuss our roles as creative and co-game directors at Wishfully, setting up our long collaboration and the shared history that shapes how we approach Planet of Lana 2.
Cairn's Beautiful Search for a Mountaineer's Purpose
Q: How did you arrive at giving players the choice to go back down the mountain in Cairn?
We wanted players to live the tough decision of risk versus safety, reflecting on their motivations for climbing and the potential consequences of their choices.
Cairn's Beautiful Search for a Mountaineer's Purpose
Q: What does it mean for The Game Bakers to make games like we cook?
It means crafting memorable games with care, much like preparing a special dish, focusing on unique experiences that resonate with players.
