The Sausage Factory is an interview-based podcast that lifts the lid on the makers of video games. It is often said by video game developers that the act of making games is not as nearly as interesting as actually playing them. So much so that many even liken it to a sausage factory in that while sausages are great, the act of making them is something no one should ever bear witness to. The Sausage Factory podcast aims to disprove this view by bringing the video game audience to the creators of the titles they love to play by interviewing developers. Split into two halves, the first delves into what makes the developers tick by asking about how they started, what and who inspires them and what games they are currently playing. The second half covers what game they are currently working on and the thought processes behind its development. So, if you really want to hear about a game in full undiluted detail then you have found the right podcast.

The Sausage Factory Episode 213 : Firebrand Games
This week show host Chris O'Regan talks to Alex Knight of Firebrand Games about their game Solar Flux.
Few titles utilise the touch screen on the Nintendo Switch, yet it is more than capable of being used as an interactive tool for a variety of game as the iPad and Android tablets would attest to. Solar Flux was a game that was originally released in 2013 on those platforms and developer Firebrand Games decided that the Nintendo Switch would make an excellent platform for the game. Show host Chris O'Regan stumbled upon the title while browsing the eStore and after playing it for a while felt compelled to reach out to Firebrand Games to see if they would be willing to chat about its development and transfer to Nintendo Switch. Amazingly they agreed and this episode of The Sausage Factory is a result of that endeavour.
