In this very special episode of The State of Games, Dice and Monkey are joined at Dice Hate Me HQ by PuppyShogun, aka T.C. Petty III, designer of VivaJava: The Coffee Game. The trio delve deep into the varied processes of game design and development, as well as what gaming themes, mechanics and veteran designers inspire them. Sharing even more about game design is Touko Tahkokallio - the designer of the smash hit Eclipse - in an exclusive interview with Matt Morgan from MTV Geek. All this, plus looks at the current Kickstarter projects Chicken Caesar and Fleet, as well as the out-of-control Masters of Commerce and some very naughty nuns on the run!
