In this episode:
We are joined by Dan Golding, director of the Freeplay Independent Games Festival as we discuss the history and role of Freeplay and how it has changed and adapted together with the video games medium. We also talk a little about the Australian video games development scene, and obviously Aaron has to bring up board games.
