DelveCast Live – Here’s a Riddle for Ya
Feb 09, 2021
Show notes
Somewhere in this episode we discuss puzzles in gaming. Where we discuss that is sort of a puzzle in itself. It was likely between discussing video game company acquisitions and Street Sharks. So, this is a pretty normal episode.
ALSO: Groundhog flakes, stuff you can’t eat at IKEA, ghost sharks, Power Rangers eating at Krispie Kream, something about RAID Shadow Legends, the pitfalls of licking toads, cat snakes, getting kicked by a horse and cats in breadboxes.

Delve 262 – Ramblethon 2021
Jan 26, 2021
Show notes
Since it’s the first episode of the new year, this episode is mostly Nathan and Alex catching up on some recent events in one of the least structured of our typically unstructured discussions. From virtual BFIG to Nathan’s new computer adventure to whatever Among Us is, we definitely had things to ramble about.

DelveCast Live – 2021 A Delve Odyssey
Jan 05, 2021
Show notes
It’s the very first Delve episode of the year and things are happening. Since Winter Sales are going on, we talk about games we’ve picked up. What will Nathan subject himself to now that he can stream games? Perhaps Alex will get a 14 point buck… in a video game. Perhaps Nathan will play a bird dating sim for Valentine’s Day. Who knows. Also: We subject James to the horrors of Street Sharks and Mystic Knights; DC tells us about how mad a mage can be; we weigh the benefits of a gold grung monk; and we establish that Alex and Nathan have not run any games in years.

Psitanium Mine – AAA, But Not Today
Dec 18, 2020
Show notes
In the midst of all the shiny new big budget games on the market, Psitanium wanted to take a moment to explain why he’s not playing them and is instead awash with indie titles. We’re experiencing a gaming Renaissance, but you might not know it. Moreover, you should be taking advantage of it.

Delve 261 – Lack of Initiative
Dec 15, 2020
Show notes
By popular demand, we are finally doing an episode on initiative. Turns out it took so long to do this episode because of our lack of initiative, so this makes narrative sense.
Alright, so do we need initiative at all? Could it be used for more than starting combat? Can it be implemented in a different way than rolling? This and so much more on Delve.

Delve 260 – Reddit Deadit Redemption
Nov 24, 2020
Show notes
As we continue down the Reddit game ideas forum, we get into some longer questions. First, we discuss the idea of having characters that need to continue the previous character’s story arc after they die. Second, we discuss what happens when the game world levels up instead of your character.
