This week, Cody and Steve sit down to discuss some of the more interesting things in gaming.

This week in news:

* Android users rejoice! Fallout Shelter, the overwhelmingly successful/popular/fun mobile game from Bethesda is coming to Android devices on August 13. Better get those thumbs ready. [via The Verge (http://www.theverge.com/2015/7/24/9036265/fallout-shelter-android-release-date)]
* Steve talks about a pretty interesting Dragon Ball Z mobile game that is definitely worth checking out. [via Google Play Store (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bandainamcogames.dbzdokkanww&hl=en)]

Then we sit down with our guest, Heather Gladden, to discuss artistic direction, design, and all about her recent foray in to the world of video game design. We discuss her favorite games, her favorite art styles, and how she became the nerd she is today!

When it comes down to the creation of a game, how important is the art style or the design of it? Do things like art style really effect the enjoyment of the game? What is the prettiest game you've ever played? We cover all of that and more in our chat! Tell us what you think in the comments below!

Heather recently worked on the upcoming game, A Frayed Knot, from Retrograde Games (https://www.facebook.com/RetrogradeGames)! You can enjoy it on any iOS device this August and coming soon to an Android device near you!

Heather is the wonderfully talented artist behind Fireside Workshop. Fireside Workshop creates everything from adorable stuffed dinosaurs [complete with top hats and monocles] to woodworking and recently, digital art and animation. You can find Fireside Workshop on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/FiresideWorkshop) and on Etsy (https://www.etsy.com/shop/FiresideWorkshop).

You can find Heather on Twitter: @Pterribledactyl (https://twitter.com/Pterribledactyl) and at her portfolio website (http://heathergladden.com/)!
