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 266: Logic Ember
Show host and producer, Chris O'Regan talks to Juha Kangas of Logic Ember about their puzzle platform game, Backworlds
It's difficult enough making a single level in a puzzle platform game, let along two that overlay one another. But that is exactly what Logic Ember have done when creating the mind-twisting puzzle platform game, Backworlds. In Backworlds, players can paint across the screen to reveal another world that mirrors the one in which they find themselves. These worlds can interact with each other to the point where seemingly impassable obstacles become little more than a minor inconvenience.
