About How to make a video game, with Auroch Digital
From indie developer and publisher Auroch Digital, each series explores our games that are currently in development, giving you insight into how we make titles like Brewmaster, Mars Horizon, The Colonists, Achtung! Cthulhu Tactics, Megaquarium, and Dark Future. We also discuss current topics within the Games Industry itself, like climate change and adapting to remote-working. We are currently working on titles such as Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun and Mars Horizon 2: The Search for Life
For our last episode of the season, we highlight something Auroch has done for a few years now but never really spoken about much on the podcast – Steam Events! Since 2020, we have been running them yearly and it’s a pleasure to share that work with you all.
Auroch colleague and esteemed guest, Simon Marshall, joins Matt and Jess in the studio to talk about what Steam events are and how to run one if you are a developer looking to do your own. We cover the lows and highs (mostly highs!) and chat about why they’re worthwhile for devs and players alike.

What it's Like to Launch a Game: Boltgun Edition! | S9 E4
We take the plunge into a mini-docuseries format for this episode, taking you through the rollercoaster that is launching a game to the whole world! If you’ve ever wondered what launch day is like at a games studio, then grab a cuppa and take a trip back to 23rd May 2023 with us.
With guest appearances from the developers themselves, Matt, Jess and Tom relive the launch of Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun all over again, interwoven with live snippets from launch day itself.
Plus, find out if Jess ever did start painting minis. All in the hopes to appease the Blood God himself...
