For this, the fifteenth episode of our long running podcast, Pocketgamer.com's Cat, Will and Dann get together to discuss the games that they hope to spend the new year playing.
As the very nature of mobile games is incredibly cyclical, the conversation quickly moves from trading card games and regular faces onto a wider discussion of the industry's live-ops nature. Specifically, they dive into iterations, sequels (including Goat Simulator 2) as well as concepts like Early Access and Soft Launch no longer meaning the same as they once did.
You can listen to the podcast below, through the Spotify embed, or head over to our Spotify Page - while there you can follow us, which'll actually get the new podcasts pushed to you as they're uploaded (which means you can give it a listen before we've even got the story live on the website). We're also going to be looking at more ways of getting it to you over the coming months, so keep your eyes peeled for that.
A job in retail resulted in a sidestep into games writing back in 2011. Since then Dann has run or operated several indie game focused websites. They're currently the Editor-in-Chief of Pocket Gamer Brands, and are determined to help the site celebrate the latest and greatest games coming to mobile.
