January 07, 202241 You Had Me at "Poop Gems"
This week we planned to talk about a topic and then completely didn't even talk about it! Because that's what professional podcasters DO.
Instead, we get real about our favorite ARGs (Alternate Reality Games), feeding squirrels in VR, ethical free-to-play business models, and the only digital currency that matters: Poop Gems.
Colette's playing: Cook Out and Puzzle Quest 3
Matt's playing: Civilization VI and Slime Rancher

December 17, 202138 Star Dews & Star Don'ts (Sky Burkson Returns)
We have the power to record and save everything in our lives with the slab of plastic in our pocket. But ... should we? Miniature artist and video game enthusiast Sky Burkson returns as our guest to discuss the philosophical implications of social media, the transitory nature of art, and most importantly: leveling up your dodgeball skills.
Also, remember when animals at the L.A. Zoo made their E3 predictions? Colette sure does: https://www.destructoid.com/the-animals-of-the-l-a-zoo-make-our-e3-2010-predictions/
Sky's playing: Her Story & Dodgeball Academia

Colette is recovering from a cold this week, but we called in some backup.

November 19, 202134 Hand Sprinkles
This week we discuss the ongoing misconduct investigations at Activision Blizzard, whether the industry has reached a tipping point toward meaningful change, and representation in games.
Also, why Animal Crossing should just become a live service game already, VR discomfort, the chef's kiss difficulty curve of Metroid Dread, and why holding a naked Switch is a crime.
Colette's playing: Resident Evil 4 VR and Animal Crossing New Horizons: Happy Home Paradise
Matt's playing: Metroid Dread, Unpacking, and Skyrim Anniversary Edition

November 12, 202133 Pistol Whipped (w/ Antony Stevens of Cloudhead Games)
This week we're joined by Antony Stevens, writer and designer at Cloudhead Games, a Canadian VR studio best known for Colette's favorite obsession: Pistol Whip.
It's a VR experience that transcends multiple genres, often referred to as a "first-person shooter, action, rhythm game." It's like if SUPERHOT, Beat Saber, John Wick, and The Matrix had a baby.
We chat with Antony about how Cloudhead was building VR games before there was even a market for them, and why Pistol Whip hit all the right notes just in time for VR's resurgence. Also, player "good will" as a durable business model, and the unforeseen challenges of VR development.
Antony's playing: Inscryption & Unpacking
Colette's playing: Animal Crossing: New Horizons (DLC & Update)
Matt's playing: Paper Beast
