For this cast, I finally had a chance to sit down with the creator of Plants vs Zombies and Octogeddon George Fan for an enlightening chat on game design. We spent time just talking general design topics and then focusing more on the creation and design of Plants vs Zombies. There were a few connection issues with Youtube that may have broken up some of the call.

You can find both Plants vs Zombies and his latest game Octogeddon on steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/525620/Octogeddon/
