Episode 435: The Most Liminal You Can Be Is a Flume
Jamie and Marsh reel from Microsoft’s latest layoffs, mismanage time in Hades 2, paddle in the uncanny, chlorinated waters of Pools, devour the bite-sized city-building triumphs of Against the Storm, and indulge their flaws in The Thaumaturge.
The last lay offs of 2024. Thankfully there won’t be any more of those! Phew!!
Nathan Brown’s Hit Points newsletter which I incorrectly namechecked as Bullet Points. Look, there are only so many pithy game-related analogies to go around, ok?
Hades 2, the much anticipated ARPG sequel – perhaps not ideal for the time-poor?
Destiny 2 is unintelligible at this point, but the guns still go bang.
Animal Well is a pixelart indie Metroidvania with notes of Fez and Cocoon.
Knytt and Within a Deep Forest are two excellent pixelart indie Metroidvania’s from yesteryear. You can find them in Nifflas’s archive here.
POOLS is about vibing in weird swimming pools.
Dreamcore is about vibing in weird swimming pools, and then being jump-scared.
Against the Storm is a city-builder for people who don’t have the mental capacity for city-builders.
The Thaumaturge could be the best 7/10 RPG of the year. Terrific character.
The Royal Mob – Jamie’s TV show about orgies and dying of exposure.
Judas is a roguelike shooter from Ken Levine’s studio, Ghost Story Games.
