Infinite Cities

No matter what, press on beat seven.

Except for all the times you shouldn't.

In this episode: ite: macarons, fan levels, frost beats, a severe spoiler wall, game of the year, when it does that thing, cheap hospital settings, residency, this game has now drawn blood.

Feather is gone, which means we're on our own! In an ep where we barely talk about the actual gameplay, we masquerade as a dog so we can go clubbing. Sure, maybe we stole a ring to give to a wily dealer to get a shady dog mask. And yeah, perhaps we got into a gun duel with a child. But things are fine here, we got this, okay?

in this episode: audible guffaw, smash cut into heaven, something ominous, billy the puppy, wily d ealer, lulling a dog to sleep with your rad tunes, people people, short one for a short game on short notice

Sanabi meets Super Meat Boy and Hotline Miami in this breakneck sidescrolling beat em up. With both slowdown and rewind mechanics, this game manages to keep pace while having little to say. We get into the weeds in a plot that probably doesn't matter when the gameplay itself remains superb, but at the end of the day I think we all agreed that this game was good!

in this episode: katana route zero, rewind mechanics, speedrunners, time period specific aesthetics, too much colored text, multiple endings, katana zero maker, devolver hate

We did it. We found the best game. Podcast's over.

Jokes aside, this one's most likely ending up on a couple GOTY-lists for us. It might go on yours, too. Just give it a try. It's only mostly obnoxious and people incapable of spelling anything correctly.

In this episode: Crazy Frog, name every RPG, the most depressed sad boy of all time, BBB vs Slayers X, TVtropes is good sometimes, Airplane! is the best movie of 1980.

Hello. Papers please.

What do you mean, "what papers"? Your big walk papers. You know, completion certificate, although if you have a signed BW-92 "tried big walk for a few hours but didn't like it" form, I'm legally required to accept that at well. We just need to know you aren't ruining this for yourself.

What's that? You haven't finished big walk? You do know you are trying to listen to this episode, right? Can you repeat that? Yes, right into this microphone.

I'm really quite sorry, I'm going to have to send you to prison. Officer, this person, right here. Yep, hands up, thank you.

You might think we're overreacting, but it's for the best, really. Don't you know we're already past peak big walk? People who haven't played it yet are scarce resource! It's a matter of national security! Yes, prison, off you go.

Frankly, I don't have a whole lot of sympathy for someone who hasn't played it yet. I don't think those kind of people should be on the streets. I have children out there, you know.

In this episode: EXTREME SPOILER WARNINGS, language evolution, doner, tea kettle code, hanging with your friend, puzzles, geese, get your ass down here, Big Walk: San Bernardino.

Look, I admit, Robert's pretty cute, even if he is basically a perfectly generic genshin impact ass background character. And he probably is a good person, what with all that mecha man stuff he had going on! But mang, two baddies? I can believe in giant robots and flying people but this is really straining my disbelief here.

Anyway you shouldn't date your coworkers.

In this episode: telltalealikes, this is a dating sim, why do so many hot women throw themselves at the most average man alive, josh wheadon, radar charts, punch up's special move, being your own genre, HR violations, ok but no really genuinely DO NOT DATE THESE PEOPLE, sad wet boys.

Warning - this is not a fair or balanced episode. Maybe if Karp or Gary had been available, we could have got someone to get the hose and spray us down with cold water - but they aren't here, so nothing is going to stop Will and Feather from gushing about a very special game for an hour.

And since Feather is writing this intro, it means I get to say: Kerbal Space Program deserves it. This silly little game about frog dudes and their incredibly wobbly rocket ships (Will! you forgot autostrut again!!) is important! I can't think of another game that is that good at capturing what it means to be an Engineer.

In this episode: jobs, why rockets go sideways, reaction wheels, Feather is the reason why we don't have cool things anymore, exploring the kerbol system, the upcoming Romeo mission to Juno, successors, Boeing Starliner.

This week we played one of Karp's longtime favorites, DUSK. Probably because he gave us all free keys. We dive into the Genredome to define the Boomer Shooter. Dusk is a successor to "technical" classics like Doom, Quake, and Redneck Rampage. Will Gary and Feather finally enjoy a Boomer Shooter?

Happy 150 episodes! This week we tackle the important, pressing questions: are we alone in the universe? If life is out there, what is it like? And most importantly, if Johnny has 512 apples, but gives away 489 of them, how many does he have left?

In this episode: hidden undertale jokes, precision targeted games, linguistics, onion science, theoretical plot holes, I do love me some math homework, searching between the couch cushions for the most useless astrophysicist of all time, SEVEN HOURS OF MATH HOMEWORK.

We needed to mix things up a bit, and what better way than to plunge into the infinite games firehose that is itch.io? We're continuously amazed by both the quality and originality available on itch - often entirely for free! - although not all of our games were the most original and or quality-ful. Still! They're labors of love by beautiful people! You have to get a little bit romantic.

Featuring:

• Milki Delivery
• Moss Moss
• The Margo Collapse
• Cobb Can Move

Also in this episode: look at this fuckin goober, it's just milk, well mossed! demo thoughts, the treachery of idle games, cobb is nothing like baba except for that one thing in which case he is.
