not directly zinc related though somewhat zinc related, happy to share here a sort of handmade-flavored podcast I'm starting where I interview creators about how they do data management in their games. if you want to hear people talk about serialization, binary formats, level data management, etc. I highly recommend listening to the show!

for the first episode I got to talk with mobile game legend arnold rauers of tinytouchtales all about his game geo gods (and card crawl, etc.). hope you all give it a listen (and share it!)
