    Just a Joke - #583
    Jul 2 2025
    Content warning: There was some swearing in this episode. Don't worry, it has been replaced by BLEEEEEEPs but I'm giving you a heads up now so that your imagination doesn't run too wild upon hearing those BLEEEEEEPs. I've kept the un-BLEEEEEEPed version in case anyone wants to pay good money for such filth in future. Also, apologies for any mouse-clicks and chair-squeaking that could be heard on recent episodes. I'll start the rumour now: I add those noises in to hide the fact that the show has been entirely done by AI for the past, I dunno, 5 years? Yeah, go with that. Anyway, welcome to our Glastonbury 2025 coverage episode! This week our intrepid hosts tackle the Xbox multiplatform strategy, PEAK selling millions, dbrand's Switch 2 blunder, Netflix culling games and a potential Black Flag remake. There's also a plan for Japan, Randy Pitchford speaks, Barcode Battler gets the briefest of mentions, Simon plays Switch 2 with other Dads in a park and Ste reveals his love of toilet roll. Sorry. The boys also take a serious (no, really) look at networking at game conferences courtesy of some excellent listener correspondance! See, this is what can happen when you actually write in to us: quality content!! YOU can give us some more quality content by writing to us at team@onelifeleft.com or join our Discord and deliver your discourse there. Link below! Going to Develop 2025 in Brighton next week?

    The Joy of Game Dev - #582
    Jun 25 2025
    Welcome to another podcast edition of One Life Left, the world's longest running video game radio show (in the English language)! This week we are joined by Super Special Guest Mike Bithell of Bithell Games, here to talk about their new game, TRON: Catalyst, working with licences, the mysteries of the Disney Archive and what he doesn't want to talk about... There's also 'heated' debate about Donkey Kong, Nintendo have an accident underground, Charlesbot flips out over third party Switch 2 games and Ste and Simon's partners run away to Sheffield with Adam & Joe! Well, wouldn't you?? Meanwhile The Art of Video Game Design nears the end of it's course! A great philosopher once said "freedom is the right of all sentient beings" and that was never truer than right here, dear listener! And it actually works with most media - if there's ever something you don't like, just skip it. You are that sentient being. You have that freedom. Would you prefer $7200 or two weeks off work? We can't make either happen but let us know anyway at team@onelifeleft.com or join our Discord and tell us there. Link below!

    Apr 30 2025
    CONTENT WARNING - This show includes a sports massage. Not, like, as a free gift for you, though something could be arranged, maybe. Let's not completely rule that out right this minute. Anyway, no, it's a descriptive thing. One of our intrepid hosts finds himself needing of some physio so gets a sports massage. From two ladies. Both called Sophie. Look, if that sounds far fetched then don't blame me, I'm just giving you a heads up. The word "buttocks" is used. If that's the kind of thing that offends then, I dunno, start the show 10 minutes in. That's a rough guess as once this gets uploaded and ads are thrown in the mix my timings go straight out the window but 10 minutes should be safe... Beyond that, welcome to the latest episode of One Life Left! This week there's still no Super Special Keef but we have a jam packed show that includes potential Nintendo Game-Key Card shenanigans, the Post Trauma of releasing a game in the shadow of Oblivion, a footy game doing well (and it isn't PES, FIFA, EA, SWOS, Kick Off nor even Emlyn Hughes International Soccer!), Simon has a "hack" for getting cheaper Switch 2 upgrades and we ponder over an Outrun movie. We also have Ste reporting back on his recent trips to Switzerland and Reboot in Croatia, including all the gossip and The Art of Video Game Design covers delayed gratification! For some reason our mailbag is bare. Barren. Bereft of letters/emails/offers of cash. Only YOU can change this, dear listeners. Our lives and/or sanity may depend on your correspondence so PLEASE write to us at team@onelifeleft.com or join our Discord, chat amongst other OLL dignitaries and leave a letter for us on there.
