GI Show – Tacoma, Slime Rancher, Brett Douville Interview
Welcome back to The Game Informer Show! On this week's episode, we dive in deep with Fullbright's Tacoma thanks to Elise Favis, Dan Tack, and Joe Juba. Then Ben Reeves joins the show to talk about his hours of playing Ubisoft's Mario + Rabbids and Andrew Reiner talks about his time with Fortnite. We also have Joe Juba to explain how he grew to love his time with Slime Rancher. After some great community emails, we're joined by programmer Brett Douville to talk about his journey from working on games like Star Wars: Republic Commando to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and how he ended up working on Tacoma with Fullbright.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
