Episode 67 More Games Played, Drop in Madness and Tiny Epic Kingdoms Overview
Happy New Year everyone!
Tonight I am joined again by Mrs. GeekJock (Janice) and Adam O. We talk about a metric ton of games we played in the last few weeks, and also give a great overview of the upcoming Gamlyn Games Kickstarter Tiny Epic Kingdoms.
I was hoping the sound wass good b/c I got new software, but from one listener it’s not great. Seems that it’s got us recorded very low and the drop ins and intro/outro are loud as all hell. Speaking of “drop ins” I also used some drop ins, a big huge sorry ahead of time for that one I am hoping they aren’t too annoying.
Also please let me know if drop ins aren’t all that bad if used better then I obviously did. And what quotes or drop ins do you think are used well or would be funny etc. If not I might just stop using them altogether.
Frahm will be along in the next day or two with the full notes so thanks ahead of time buddy!
As always thanks for listening!
