SIFTER’s Lightmap podcast explores what goes into making a video game as told by the creative teams making games and the journalists and academics writing about gaming culture. In 2023, the podcast featured the likes of Ben Ward and Tim Malony, the Creative Director and producer behind Dros (2023), Cult of the Lamb (2022) composer River Boy (Narayana Johnsson) on producing a soundtrack with everything from vocal sampling to bansuri; and the Fuzzy Ghost team as they develop their latest game, Janet DeMornay Is A Slumlord (and a witch) (2024),which explores found family and the perils of renting.
