Families in Games (with Beth Korth and Andy Korth)




Nice Games Club - a gamedev podcast! show

Summary: <p>We have some familiar guests this week! The Korth family (Andy, Beth, and Gabe) join us in the clubhouse to talk about the ways they play games together. Are there games that adults and four-year-olds alike can play together and enjoy? Sure! We talk about flexibility, rules, consent, "PBP," and what gamedevs should think about if they want to "toot around in the kid zone." Also, have you heard of a game called <em>Minecraft</em>? </p> Families in Games <a href="/topics/gaming" hreflang="en">Gaming</a> The first time the Korths were on the show was Episode #2! <a href="/episode/2" hreflang="en">Steam Greenlight</a> The second time the Korths were on the show was about a hundred episodes ago. <a href="/episode/102" hreflang="en">Code Comment: "Verdant Skies"</a> And the most recent appearance from the Korths was Episode #132. <a href="/episode/132" hreflang="en">Narrative Design </a> <a href="https://hermitcraft.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">HermitCraft (Minecraft streamer)</a> <a href="https://www.roblox.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Roblox</a> <a href="https://cyan.com/games/spelunx/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Spelunx</a> <a href="https://subsetgames.com/itb.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Into the Breach</a> <a href="https://arcadeblogger.com/2020/06/27/the-development-of-robotron/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Robotron</a> <a href="https://ece.mpls.k12.mn.us/ecfe" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE) for Minnesota</a> <a href="/person/beth-korth" hreflang="en">Beth Korth</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/33" hreflang="en">Guest</a> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/portrait/public/2020-02/HFTQVtrs_400x400.jpg?itok=VuGdexog" width="300" height="450" alt="Beth Korth profile picture" class="img-responsive"> <p>Beth Korth is a narrative designer, and the Vice Chair at the Independent Game Developer Association, Twin Cities.</p> External link <a href="https://twitter.com/BethKorth">@BethKorth</a> <a href="https://verdantskies.com/">Verdant Skies</a> <a href="/person/andy-korth" hreflang="en">Andy Korth</a> <a href="/taxonomy/term/33" hreflang="en">Guest</a> <p>Founder and developer for Howling Moon Software.</p> External link <a href="http://howlingmoonsoftware.com/index.php">Howling Moon Software</a> <a href="http://verdantskies.com/">Verdant Skies</a>
