<p><strong>Welcome to Pixels and Polygons, part of the Sound Stone Network.</strong> This is a conversational podcast hosted by Darren Hupke. It features a rotating cast of guests each week and captures a conversation on a set gaming topic. Each episode starts with an introduction of the guest and an icebreaker; then, we answer a single gaming question. Short and sweet! It’s the perfect “podcast-between-podcasts!” This week’s topic is…</p><p></p><p><strong>Who is one of your favorite creators (director, artist, composer, etc)?</strong> What was the first game that exposed you to them?
