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 199: Ska Studios
Chris O'Regan talks to James and Michelle Silva of Ska Studios about how Salt and Sanctuary was developed. In the midst of gaming past independent games made their first foray into console platforms in 2007 when Xbox Live Arcade started supporting games being developed by small studios. Dishwasher Vampire Smile was one of the first games to appear on this fledgling platform and now, 11 years later, Ska Studios, the creators of that seminal title have returned with Salt and Sanctuary. Actually they returned in 2016 with this game, but now it is released on the Nintendo Switch so we thought that would be an excellent excuse to have Ska Studios on to chat about it. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/sausage/180929_TSF_Episode199.mp3 Edited by Chris O'Regan
