Our first interview of 2017 is with Great Levels in Gaming YouTube producer Max Barnyard. Like our previous interviewee, Max Barnyard focuses his criticism on specific elements of video games rather than a holistic look at them. As the show's title name states, that focus is on the construction and purpose within the great levels in the great video games. Of course, what is a level in contemporary video games? We discuss that question along with how he chooses what levels to showcase the game, working with Achievement Hunter, and his penchant for puns.
