Sup Holmes feels futile with The Stanley Parable's Dave W

[Destructoid's Director of Communications Hamza Aziz asked Jonathan Holmes to make a show called 'Sup, Holmes?' so that Destructoid could later sell a t-shirt that says 'Sup, Holmes?' on it. This is that show. Subscribe to the podcast feed and find more episodes here.]

This week on Sup Holmes, we'll meet Davey Wreden, creator of The Stanley Parable -- a videogame about jobs, life, and videogames. What started as a Half Life 2 mod transformed into a successful Kickstarter project, resulting in the forthcoming stand-alone HD remake. Davey is part of a new generation of game developers who are making games like you'd have never seen ten years ago, and getting them produced in ways that prove that anyone with an idea and the drive to share it can be a success.

Davey's also got a new Twine game called Pleasurable You and a outdoor indie game festival called Indiecade: Annex (featuring games by past Sup Holmes pals Damian Sommer and Beau Blyth) to talk about. We'll be touching on all that, plus Dark Souls, anger, the IGF, and whatever else comes up! Join us at 1pm PST/4pm EST for a period piece romantic drama tragedy that'll put Downton Abbey to shame.
