Portal 2, Portal 2, and a little Portal 2.  Oh, and we talk about things that are not Portal 2 too, but who cares about that?  Engaging GLaDOS in the next paragraph, please continue reading.  You know, for science.

IGDA Twin Cities podcast portals into your ears this month discussing our recent "research" in Portal 2, as well as how Valve worked with a number of  independent developers in their marketing campaign with the Potato Sack bundle on Steam.  We also discuss what we've been up to, recent projects, and some discussion on last month's presentation by Damian and Ryan describes more on May's event.
