Happy New Year everyone! In this episode we are joined again by Antonia, who last joined us to talk about Stardew Valley. This time, the three of us discuss some of the video games we're most looking forward to in 2018.
Sefran: Far Cry 5, Into the breach, and Wargroove.
Antonia: Monster Hunter World, Ni No Kuni 2, Kingdom Hearts III, and Bayonetta 3.
Jalada: Sea of Thieves, Last of Us Part 2, and Age of Empires 4.
In this episode we are joined by Elizabeth Chesters, a user experience consultant, human-computer interaction student, and software developer. We ask her about her job, what HCI is, and what's in store in the future for how we interact with our devices.
In this episode we're joined by our friend Tom, aka @x5315. Tom co-created Twitterfall with Jalada back in 2009.
To follow up from Episode 25 where Jalada talked about building Twitterfall, Tom is here to tell us the story from his point of view, and what he's up to now.

In this episode of Octal FM, the two of us catch up and talk about what games we’ve been playing.
Jalada has been playing Horizon: Zero Dawn(affiliate link, proceeds go to Octal FM).
In this episode Sefran talks about visiting his favourite place in the world; Japan. We chat about what it's like to visit, the things you should know before going, and what it was like when Sefran visited for the first time.
In this episode we return to the topic of platformers. All the things we love, some of the things we hate.
Not much in the way of notes for this episode; we really just sit back and have a bit of a chat. Enjoy!
In 2009 Jalada spent 2 hours building a website that would ultimately end up shaping his entire career. In this episode of Octal FM we tell you the story of that website.

In this episode Jalada and Sefran sit back and chat about how gamers shape games through coming up with challenges, speedruns, or rewriting the games themselves through modding.
