Ep 459 - What Players Really Want From Games with Michael Tsarouhas
23/06/2026 | 49min
Game developers spend years trying to make their games fun, but the answer to finding the fun for players may have less to do with mechanics and more about how players actually feel. In this episode, we explore what fulfillment actually means from both the player's and developer's perspective, and how design decisions influence that experience. We'll discuss everything from progression systems to player motivation, and the tradeoffs teams face when balancing business goals with meaningful player experiences. The difference might be smaller than you think, and more impactful than you'd expect. Episode Shownotes Link: https://rengenmarketing.com/459
Ep 458 - How the Indie Marketing Playbook Is Broken with Buddy Sola
16/06/2026 | 56min
Indie game marketing advice spreads fast but much of it is rooted in conditions that have quietly changed, and in some cases, no longer apply. The problem? Most developers haven't noticed yet. In this episode, we break down why the strategies studios have relied on are losing effectiveness, what's driving that shift, and what a smarter, more adaptive approach looks like for reaching players in today's market.

Ep 457 - The Audio Mistake Most Studios Don't Know They're Making with François Fripiat
09/06/2026 | 56min
Most teams treat audio exclusively as polish, leaving it until right before launch. The problem is, sound influences player decisions, pacing, and emotional impact well before a single level is finished. Today, we explore why isolating audio creates friction and missed opportunities, and how treating sound as a core layer from the start leads to a stronger, more cohesive player experience.

Ep 456 - Running an Indie Studio Beyond the First Game with Greg Lane
02/06/2026 | 51min
Most conversations around indie development focus on getting a game out the door, but what happens after that? So today, we're digging into what it actually takes to run a studio beyond the first release. Everything from the decisions, trade offs, and even the mindset shifts that determine whether a studio grows or quietly fades out. Because building something that lasts requires thinking beyond game one. Episode Shownotes Link: https://rengenmarketing.com/456
Ep 455 - The Studio Culture You Never Meant to Build with Zoë Curnoe
26/05/2026 | 1h 3min
Studio culture isn't something you have, it's something you're constantly creating, whether you realize it or not. And for most indie teams, that's exactly the problem. The culture taking shape inside your studio may not be the one you intended, and by the time you notice, the damage may already be done. So today, we examine what unintentional culture actually looks like, how to spot it before it holds your team back, and what it takes to build an environment where both your people and games can thrive.
