I det här avsnittet gästas jag av Giulia från Italien. Vi diskuterar den italienska indiescenen, konvent, GameChef 2012, spelöversättningar, Gaming as women, vad Polaris har gemensamt med IKEA och många andra spännande saker.

Shownotes är på gång, men avsnittet blev en och en halv timme långt, och så gott som vart enda namn är på italienska, så här skall jag få lite hjälp.

Giulia har postat en massa länkar relaterade till avsnittet på Google+.

I det här avsnittet gästas jag av Kyle som bor i Sydkorea. Vi pratar om hans spel Magicians, skrivet för att lära ut språk, och om koreansk spelkultur bortom Starcraft och MMORGP.

Kyle skrev ihop väldigt fina shownotes åt mig, jag postar dem i sin helhet nedan.

Hi Wilhelm,

Thanks for having me on the show again, it was a lot of fun. Hopefully it comes out well, I thought I’d arrange all the links for the stuff we talked about before I forget!

My site: www.magiciansrpg.com/
Latest playtest for the game if people want to see it along with some helpful things for learning Korean: forum.magiciansrpg.com (I will make better videos)
