http://youtu.be/l9isws7KJ_o This week I had a chat with indie game developer Daniel Linssen about his upcoming Steam release 'The Sun And Moon'. Australia based Daniel won 'Ludum Dare 29', with this platformer that has a unique mechanic: you can dive into the ground. Momentum is conserved but gravity is reversed, letting you fling yourself high into the air or deep beneath the surface. The goal is always straightforward - collect the three orbs in the level and jump into the wormhole - but spikes, endless drops and impossible heights make this more and more difficult.

Since those days, he's worked across the industry on games such Theme Park, Startopia, Grand Theft Auto IV and Star Wars: The Clone Wars - Republic Heroes.

This week, we spoke to Wanda Bertram, the producer of a newly funded Kickstarter documentary called A Brief History of Time Travel: A Mindbending Documentary! Over the past 3 years, director Gisella Bustillos and her team have been interviewing personalities like Bill Nye ("the Science Guy"), legendary game designer Tim Schafer and Robopocalypse author Daniel Wilson about time travel, and how it relates to pop culture and science. Time travel is one of the most contagious ideas in science fiction. In a society where time is a unit of value and instant gratification is prized, the idea of traveling through time offers a means of escape. And our obsession with time travel is growing: in the last decade, it's appeared more than ever in books, movies, and pop culture. What makes time travel so powerful that it resonates in each of us, and to what lengths are we going today to make it a reality? A Brief History of Time Travel is the biography of an idea, chasing time travel from the... Support this show http://sup

Over the weekend I headed up to Manchester to take a look at PlayExpo 2014 at Event City. There was a lot of cool stores, some tv bits and pieces, and a huge retro gaming area of old SNES, SEGA and pinball machines. However the area that really captured my attention was the indie gaming section, full of new and in-development independent games. I got chatting with a number of the developers and publishers which you can hear on the podcast below (at the bottom of this post), but I've also included videos of the games in this post so you can see what we're talking about!

Jeff is currently composing music for the 2nd season of  the truly excellent TV show Fargo along with the 2nd season of  the Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson produced drama Power AND the new CSI:Cyber starring James Van Der Beek and Patricia Arquette. Add to that the fact that he's also founding member, lead guitarist and co-songwriter of two-time GRAMMY-nominated, multi-platinum selling rock band, TONIC, and it's fair to say, Jeff is a busy guy!
