Time Played: 3hr

We somehow managed to make an hour long goty ep about only the 7 'games' we talked about on the pod this year. Well done on making it through the year, We'll speak to you sometime in the next. x

This week we're back with the hit film based on a true story based on a video game based on a sim racer based on an academy based on a tournament based on a hit movie based on the favelas of brazil: Goal 2

Imagine you've been waiting almost two months for another episode of your fav podcast about video games, you where being to think they may never post another. Then bam. It's here. And it's about the crappy games you can play for free on a discord server. It's good to be back, enjoy.

This week we're crusing down stunning mountainsides, taking in the sights and sounds of natu- WOAHAHA IS THAT A FRICKEN BMX WITH 7 WHEEEELS BRO??!? FRICKEN TIGHT SICK AND COOL AND STUFF.

This week we're playing the big hot spicy hype new open world game everyone is talking about! Just Cause 4. (The new Zelda just came out, so that's the joke, in case you're reading this in the future)

This week we're staring at benches and getting stressed about our Landords as we play my first game. Lochie very kindly invited me to a lil q&a sesh, and I anxiously/excitedly got to mumble endlessly on about surprising ease and expected difficulty of game dev.

This week we are in the sexy boots of all round gross boy, mr 007, the old JB himself. Firing nikita missiles, driving underwater cars, getting in the hole, kissing any one of the 5 bond girls, shaving with bombs and vibing to our tacky theme songs. I (louis) made a game! what? yep.

This weeks ep is allll about Sega's most recent attempt at escaping Sonics janky 3D self. Did they finally suceced? No...???

It's mid-Jan so what better time to wrap up our fav games of the year (that we played for the podcast) then now. I've already forgotten what took top spot but I can garentee it is an infallible pick as the best game of the year, as long as you subscribe to our unquantifiable metrics. (Guess which two words I had to look up the spelling for in that last sentence and win a prize, tho it doesn't count if I spelt all the other words wrong...) Thank you for listening in to us jabber about games this year. V cosy to know we've got a lil group keen to hear Lochie and I waffle about crap for 30 mins at a time. This pod make no profits but does require about a tenner between us every month to host & backup the audio. It'll keep going regardless, but if you wanna tip us a cheeky quid or two we'd love that tbh. You can do so on our ko-fi which you can find on my website: www.louisthings.com/timeplayed3hr Oh also, I forgot to mention I was on Gaming In The Wild's GOTY ep (https://gaminginthewild.carrd.co) again th

Well it's December first so it's about time I wished you a happy Halloween. To celebrate we played the latest concoction of spooky indie game demos brewed by by the folks of Haunted PS1. Real nice selection this year, and great to see the format expand into something even bigger.

This time, we wax about the nostalgic vibes of Shin Chan (insert full title here). We talk bums & bugs but can only dream of a game that might hit a little closer to home.

This week we're trying not to hurl as we fall upwards through a simple yet endeering tale of class struggles and a woman named Kat that also has a cat and makes me wonder what kind of creative thought went into that choice.

This week we're floating about in zero-G, stuck in a dead end job. Trying our best not to get sucked into the space furnace as we dream about the good old days back on earth, frolicking about in the lavender fields, drinking lavender ice tea and munching on lavender cupcakes. At least we still have our trusty old lavender microwave bags to warm our sore, overworked space muscles. Tips, discord, and socials? Check out this link. http://louisthings.com/timeplayed3hr
