Hey everyone, As threatened in our last post, here’s the podcast for your listening pleasure: The Episode 3 Development Podcast We did our best to cut it down to size, but it’s still an earful. We hope you find it an interesting and informative masturbatory aide. Thanks for listening!
So the great news is the gameplay upgrade launched quite smoothly. We also made some major server software upgrades and the site is running much faster for it. For the geeks reading this: we upgraded to Ruby 1.9.1, which is quite a big change from Ruby 1.8.6. It’s over 3x as fast in most of our benchmarks! Following the gameplay tune-up, I have turned my focus to Episode 3. While I haven’t been working on Episode 3 full time until recently, Jalapeno Bootyhole and his talented apprentices have been churning out content for months. There is a lot done, and I will end up spending most of my time integrating it. ...
It’s been a long time since we’ve had a Zunecast (yeah, I’m calling it a Zunecast, wanna fight about it?) and last time I was unable to participate thanks to technical difficulties.

To celebrate the launch of tomorrow’s Episode 2 Beta, I recorded a podcast this afternoon. Download the MP3 (9MB). Jalapeno had some technical difficulties so it’s just me talking. As a gift, I’ve included a newly recorded audio tubmail of Bruce bear in the beginning!
We’re going to be recording a Forumwarz podcast soon and we’re looking for people to submit questions for us to answer. Please post them in this thread on Flamebate!
