Ben and Trevor move out of the cold for some Click Pitch, riffing on game ideas such as:

• a game and its sequel set in a court with an overbearing HOA
• an extraction shooter set in a world where north of the equator is a giant glacier
• a deductive game where you figure out a witch's curse
• and more!

Ben and Trevor take a break from discussing games that will never exist, to games that will. They are taking part in a 1 Bit Jam where they have 2 colours to play with and that's it. The games they discuss were:

1. A 2d strategic shooter where you shoot your own fighters at enemies
2. A 3d horror game set in a creepy mansion.

Ben and Trevor continue their deck sessions, playing some classic Click Pitch and coming up with game designs such as:

A game where you are an alien explorer cataloguing Earth;

A teacher roguelike with in-depth student relationship mechanics;

A high tech weapon alters physics in localised areas;

and more!

Ben and Trevor wax lyrical about so many topics that aren't game design in this episode. However they did manage to talk about some game ideas so here they are:

1. A long awaited sequel to Blind Reflection, the game from the second ever episode of the pod
2. A retrofuturistic world where the learnings from the past are forgotten.
3. A game where you and your neighbours are digging tunnels to explore under the neighbourhood.

Ben and Trevor try to come up with ideas for the next batch of indie gems, including:

a band finding inspiration in a haunted house;

playing as the superintendent of a block of magical apartments;

accidentally catfishing on dating apps;

and more!

Ben and Trev continue the deck sessions and riff on some indie games such as:

1. Investigating a mystery at Banana Corp as the CEO... A telepathic banana
2. Work as an health inspector for a group of shops
3. Carve away marble in a massively multiplayer game

The 2026 Deck Sessions continue as Ben and Trevor spend a lot of time discussing an 80s inspired game where you are taping songs off the radio, then go completely off the rails about reverse chicken football and a guy called Johnny Two-Fingers.

With GGJ having just completed for 2026, Ben and Trev use the theme "Mask" and generate a bunch of games that they could have made over the weekend:

1. A teleporting TSA agent pursues a passenger through the terminal
2. A parent and child must look after the driads of the forest.
3. A prisoner must escape a french prison, while the warden makes a lot of mouse jokes.
