Episode 18 of Decision Space, originally published May 26, 2021. Join us in the Discord community for the re-listening club discussion.
"In this "What We Talk About Episode" Jake and Brendan discuss signposts in board games. We ask important questions like what are they even? And further, what do they do? To this end, Jake becomes increasingly more confused. Fortunately, we eventually come to some steady footing and draw conclusions about this board game terminology that we believe will lead to even more productive board game discussions moving forward. If that sounds like a good time to you, then good lord and welcome, Decisionaught, you are most definitely in the right place. This is Decision Space!"

Episode 22 of Decision Space, originally published June 23, 2021. Join us in the Discord community for the re-listening club discussion. "Today, friends, feast your ears on one of tastiest point-salad morsels ever served up by the master chef himself, Mr. Stefan Feld. The Castles of Burgundy is a great, great game. Quite possibly the best board game ever made by the tastes of one of our hosts. But why is it so good? What is it about the decision space that makes it an experience so many people want to return to time and time again. We'll try to unravel some of these mysteries in this week's episode of Decision Space. Hop in, there's no time to lose."

Episode 171 - "Puzzly" Games
I played a game recently that was sooo puzzly. Listener, you may have heard a sentence like this before. You may even understand what that means, but have you ever tried to break down the decision space implications? Believe it or not, that's what we do on this week's episode of Decision Space. Plus, we end with two short board game reviews! Believe in that, interdecisional spaceship travelers. Let's ride!

Episode 168 - The Decision Space Jam
This week we discuss the Decision Space Jam, a game design jam run in our podcast community. All the games discussed are available to print and play for free here, including Jake's own game Soul Power (a roll and write a game that plays in just 12 quick rolls). If any games discussed sound interesting, I highly recommend checking them out for yourself!
Episode Description (Generated with Podbean AI)
Join us on this week's episode of the Interdecisional Spaceships podcast where we delve into the Decision Space Jam, a game design challenge hosted within our community. This episode gives listeners an insight into our experience of developing games, playtesting, and managing a game design jam. Tune in to hear about creative processes, practical tips, and a detailed discussion of two community favorite games.
Our episode offers a sneak peek into the winning entries and the unique thematic and mechanical considerations that went into their design. From world exploration and scavenging to factory production and thrilling boss fights, these community-generated games promise something for everyone. We also discuss the complexities involved in writing a game's rulebook and ensuring the game is captivating despite time constraints.
We highlight the role of a well-crafted rulebook and the significance of clean graphic design. We also explore how unpredictable elements like dice outcomes can lead to a variety of gameplay routes. The episode features a spotlight on two community favorites - Arrival and Street Organist. These games demonstrate how unique gameplay mechanisms and smart design can provide immersive gameplay experiences.
The episode concludes with a discussion on the outcome of the inaugural Decision Space Jam, expressing our thrill over the high level of collaboration and creativity displayed in the entries. We also discuss future plans for the jam, including ideas to encourage deeper feedback and collaboration. Whether you are a participant of the jam, interested in game design, or a board game enthusiast, this episode promises an engaging insight into game design challenges, innovations, and aspirations within our community.
