Side Quest: Double Fine Adventure Documentary
29/04/2020 Duración: 01h12minJason, Corrigan, and Ben all watched the 20-part documentary series "Double Fine Adventure" all about the making of Broken Age (see our last episode for more details on that game). It chronicled everything from the artwork to the development to the budget to the reception, and wow. It was jam-packed full of golden nuggets that we hope to distill down into a golden nugget reduction that's just to die for. Lots of hilarity ensues.Also we announce the game we'll be playing for our 50th episode later this year. Check it out!Hey there. If you enjoyed this episode, please share it with a friend.

After a quick drink and some tunes (43:30), they talk about what else they've been playing and well, they've been busy (56:30).

Ep 46: Kentucky Route Zero - Talking To Toad
17/03/2020 Duración: 01h26minThe trio is back! And we're diving into the newly-finished indie pentology of Kentucky Route Zero. Hope you were able to give this one a shot, because it's one of those rare truly unique and special games. And while each of us differed on our overall love for it, we all were blown away by different aspects of the game and had plenty to talk about in this episode--our longest episode EVER. So yeah...sorry? Or...enjoy? You decide!We chit chat a bunch off the top, then quickly talk about some of the development (13:00) before getting into the radio drama that Ben so elegantly wrote and Corrigan and Jason so adeptly acted out (15:00). The gameplay talk goes on for far too long (20:30), before they play an unctuous round of "What's The Drink? What's The Song?" (64:00), talk about what else they've been playing, and chat about next month's game too (72:15).And if you liked this episode, feel free to rate and review it in iTunes or wherever else you're listening to it.

18/11/2019 Duración: 57minTis the season... Star Wars season!!! There's a new Star Wars game coming out this month, and the last film in the Skywalker Saga coming out next month, so we figured why not play another classic Star Wars game from the Dark Forces/Jedi Knight/Kyle Katarn series?

Then we play a juicy round of WTDWTS (37:45), talk about what else we've been playing (43:45), and then finish things with what we'll be playing next month. Can't wait!Thanks again for listening!

Ep 41: Outer Wilds - Lumberpunk
16/09/2019 Duración: 01h03minThis game blew us away! Really a fun surprise and we hope you had a chance to play it as well. Corrigan couldn't be bothered to play with us this month, so it's just Jason and Ben running around the galaxy, blowing s#@* up...but we thoroughly enjoyed it nonetheless. You will be missed dear Corrigan, but we're excited to have you back next month!Things got a little weird with the timeline and order this month (you'll see why), but basically, after the intros, we get into the making-of at some point (around 5:15), then chat about the gameplay for...awhile after that. After some loopy moments in there, we chat about what beer and song this song might be (48:00), what else we've been playing (52:15), and then we of course pick next month's game--with the help of Corri! (56:45). And since that'll be our October game, it'll be a bit spookier than normal. Look out!
