Potential Game-Changer Video Game on the Horizon

Sure thing! Here’s the revised article:

Okay, so, there’s this thing where College Humor decided to rename itself Dropout – makes you wonder why, right? Probably some marketing mumbo-jumbo. Anyway, they’ve got this show called Game Changer. If you haven’t heard of it, think of comedians messing around with weird, mind-bending games. It’s hosted by Sam Reich, who happens to be the CEO. I found myself wondering – because who wouldn’t? – if they’d ever make a video game out of this chaos. The answer? Yeah, probably!

So, I had this chat with Reich. We were supposed to talk about Game Changer – like, how do they even come up with these games and make them work without someone losing an eye? Mid-convo, I just had to know: are they going to take this madness digital? You know, like an actual video game.

“Yeah, for sure,” Reich said over Zoom. Isn’t it wild how you can just say anything in a Zoom meeting? Anyway, he mentioned they might do something connected to Dimension 20. Fans love that D&D stuff, or it could be Game Changer going virtual.

“We’re talking about it,” he went on. But, honestly, they’re not rushing it. There’s this whole ‘we want it to feel like us’ vibe. Makes sense, I guess. They don’t want to hand their baby over to strangers to mess up.

Oh, and money. Let’s not forget how absurdly expensive making games can be. And time-consuming. That’s a rabbit hole, right there.

When I pushed him on if they were just daydreaming or if there’s actually something brewing, he was like, “Yeah, we’ve got ideas.” Sounds like they’ve been thinking about it.

“Part of wanting to dive into games is releasing those mini web games in Game Changer,” Reich said. Kind of like testing the waters to see if they can manage without sinking.

Reich seemed pretty chill about it all, and kind of confident, too. Like, “We’ll probably do one. It’s just a matter of when.” Seems hopeful if you ask me.

Oh, and if you’re keeping up, Game Changer’s got its season 7 finale airing soon on August 11 – only on Dropout, obviously.
