  • The author enjoys listening to podcasts while working on a diorama-based game.
  • Discovered the podcast 'Imaginary Advice' through MetaFilter, featuring a fictional SNES game 'A Christmas Carol'.
  • Sometimes struggles to distinguish between jokes and reality, as with Semantle and Segagaga.
  • Reflects on a previous post about the fictional game 'Blue Prince', which some took seriously due to detailed visuals.
  • Intended the 'Blue Prince' post as a critique on its high busywork-to-puzzle ratio and inclusion of slot machines.
  • Podcasts inspire creativity, as seen with Adrian Tchaikovsky's 'Philosopher Tyrants' series.
  • The 'Revolutions' podcast returned with a fictional season on the Martian Revolution of 2247.
  • Used 'cool-retro-term' instead of RetroArch for a project, settling for 'good enough' font accuracy.
  • Appreciated Egypt Urnash's IF-style 'Blue Prince' scene but prefers maps in games for clarity.
