and a joy to have on the car speakers

Great insight into game development on a deeper level than most developers podcasts. Lots of real and action advice for all skill levels

I made it through the first half of one episode before I realized I was hooked. Halfway through the catalogue and I gotta say, this is one of the best. If you like game development, you should most definitely check this out!

Taking on well designed games from a games dev perspective, Nice Game Clubs digs deeper than most.

I found this show a couple years ago and basically binged through all the episodes. It was awesome to witness their being-expedited journey - from humble beginnings and classic Martha transitions, to professional game developers and entrepreneurship. It was very inspiring. The hosts (and guests) are not only informative, but highly entertaining. They do a fantastic job of making you feel like you’re all friends and part of the club. Living on the east coast, I am jealous of the local community they have. It all sounds more than nice, and if I were local I would absolutely be involved and apply for some office space. I consider myself part of the ‘club’ they’ve created, and if they ever go through with any of their ‘branding’ ideas, would love a sticker to put on my next project!

This podcast is pure joy. Great conversations about nice games. Well produced, and omg the ant JRPG episode is amazing.

The three hosts are very knowledgeable, and will address many different insteresting topics in videogame development. Their guests are wonderfully knowledgeable. This podcasts contains the advice and encouragement you just might need as a new or experienced game dev. Sometimes they even talk about their favorite videogames!

Recently found this podcast and it's amazing! I've been digging back through previous episodes and the subjects they touch on are very informative, insightful, and really helpful and the hosts are all super swell and enjoyable to listen to! This podcast has been fantastic overall, I find it all educational and I really enjoy the debates as well. I'm excited for new episodes! :D

This show is great for those interested in Game Development. Also sound quality is good, well done guys. - Chris @evergreengames

Come for the inside look at different facets of the games scene from three uncompromisingly kind and clever devs, stay for the bants.

This is a great podcast with a very pleasant cast. They make me want to move to MN and join their game dev scene. I had been looking for a good general game dev podcast that wasn't just 4 white dudes gatekeeping.

Nice Minnesotan duders talking about nice things about dope games. They're very accessible and inclusive talking about lots of things I find interested in games.

Very cool podcast, I love hearing from local Minnesota develoeprs!

As someone who has a fairly mundane day job, this has been one of my favorite podcasts to listen to at work. Since I can’t be working on games during day, shows like this one curb my hunger until I can. New to the MN gaming community, this podcast helps keep me in touch with the up and up, as well as provide interesting discussion, with differing opinions, but without squabble. Highly recommended to fans of indie games!

Each episode is like a cluster of kind words and interesting thoughts with Mark, Martha, and Stephen being the gatekeepers to the podcast. They normally talk about game design and the process throughout already making it stand out from most video game podcasts. What i think really makes them stand out as a podcast is how they keep their topics simple/grounded to understand and also super entertaining to listen too making it a joy to learn and laugh at the hog wild industry of video games.

I really enjoy hearing Mark, Martha, and Stephen debate certain topics in game development. For example, this morning I listened to them discuss the pros and cons of prototyping. It was very helpful to hear their different perspectives on the topic, because I help organize an educational program for emerging game makers. Their best shows happen when they don't agree on a topic! :)

Nice Games Club, the r/WholesomeMemes of podcasting, is one great reason to look forward to Mondays. The topics are are fun and guests interesting, but the truly attractive thing about this show is its spirit. You come away with the belief that there are at least three people out there who really want the people around them, and the broader gaming community, to be as successful (and nice) as possible. These people are genuinely and irresistably positive. My one caution to the hosts, as of January 2017, is to not let niceness stop you from expressing strong opinions. Your latest episode - "Will you be the best with me?" - is your best yet, and owes a lot of its charge to the passionate discussion and disagreement it contains. You've shown that a family can bicker, but still love one another. And when you do, it's really, REALLY good pod.

Love the different backgrounds of the three hosts. It makes each topic interesting due to the three perspectives you get.
