Titanium Court
Notes de l’épisode
In this episode of Pixelated Playgrounds, Bryan and Josh take the throne in Titanium Court! Developed by New York-based creator AP Thomson and published by Fellow Traveller, Titanium Court is a strategy game that mashes match-3, tower defense, and roguelike mechanics together as you command the eponymous Court in battle against the enemy. Between runs, you retreat home for visual-novel-style story beats, courtier interactions, and a slow unraveling of exactly what this strange, fairy court actually is.
Winner of the Seumas McNally Grand Prize and the Excellence in Design award at this year's Independent Games Festival, Titanium Court has earned a reputation for writing that's genuinely funny without leaning on snark, and for a genre mash-up that is singular rather than derivative. Listen in as Bryan and Josh dig into how the match-3 and tower-defense layers actually talk to each other mechanically, whether the randomness undercuts or reinforces the tactics, and whether this IGF winner lives up to the hype. So grab your keys, you're going home! Eventually. Maybe.
