Gamer's Guide to Ecology

Written by: Jessie deHaan
  • Summary

  • I play popular open-world RPGs from an ecological perspective. On “Gamer’s Guide to Ecology” I dive into topics like plant and animal interactions, animal behaviour, evolution, and the impacts of the game's characters on in-game biodiversity.

  • Bonus Episode - Exploring Horror with Stephen Indrisano
    Jul 1 2023

    In this special bonus episode of GGE, I'm joined by Stephen Indrisano to chat about the Horror genre; something I've always steered clear of because I'm a super wimp. Stephen joined the podcast to talk about things like; what makes something horror, how horror changes with society, how difficult it is to actually scare someone, and horror's connection with the environment.


    Stephen is a DC-based voice actor, writer, and podcast producer of all things Horror. He produces Bloody FM's Regarding Dracula, and he can be heard on Mayfair Watcher's Society, The SCP Archives, and ROGUEMAKER. His upcoming docu-horror, Shelterwood: A Suburban Gothic is crowdfunding in July of 2023. You can find out more about Shelterwood at ShelterwoodPod on Twitter or Tumblr, or via email at shetlerwoodpod@gmail.com. Go support the show's crowdfund at bit.ly/shelterwoodpod !

  • Ep.21 - Kirby and the Forgotten Land
    Apr 7 2023

    I`m back! For the first episode of Season 2 I'm chatting with Matt Storm. Matt's a longtime lover of the Kirby franchise and the perfect choice to give me the lore rundown of this lovable pink blob. In this episode we talk about our falling out with gaming consoles, Kirby's mouthful modes and combat abilities, and the real-world similarities of Kirby's ability to "sequestering".

    P.S., Sorry starting season 2 took so long. Life happened! Listen to the extra bit after the outro for my excuses.

  • Ep.20 - Just Chatting: Pokemon Legends Arceus
    Mar 1 2022

    In the final episode of Season 1 I'm joined by photographer, podcaster and D&D 5e actual play streamer Josh Bingaman (@josketh on Twitter). Josh and I nerd out about what it was like to grow up playing Pokemon, what keeps us coming back (time and time again) to the games, what we think of the newest game "Pokemon Legends: Arceus" and what it could mean for the franchise moving forward.
