Listen "Sokpop Selection ft. Stacklands and Simmiland"
Episode Synopsis
Bryan and Josh have both long been intrigued by the prolific and quirky “Video Game Development Boy Band” hailing from Utrecht, Netherlands and calling themselves Sokpop. Given the recent breakout success of the group’s title, Stacklands, they decided to dive in and survey the vast back catalogue of projects that Sokpop has created. For those unaware: Sokpop is a 4 person video game development collective which has given itself an ambitious mission: launch a new game every 2 weeks. The games vary in size, shape, and scope but generally adhere to a ‘House Style’ that features low-res colorful visuals and cute, chunky animations. While the discussion primarily concerns Stacklands and another title, Simmiland, from a gameplay and mechanics perspective, Bryan and Josh discuss Sokpop’s approach more broadly in this podcast we’re calling Sokpop Selection.Three Word Reviews:Bryan - Curious Collective CreationJosh - Rapid Fire ReleaseShow Notes:Sokpop’s Patreon PageGame Design Perspective: Stacklands by JoshGames Discussed: Stacklands, Simmiland, Luckitown, Tile Tale, Pocket Watch, White Lavender, Rook, KingPins, Sproots
