The guys sit down with Devin Santi to discuss Mr. Sleepy Man, available on Steam.

It's getting late for the citizens of Bedtime Town, and it looks like there's one peculiar fellow who's up way past his bedtime...

Mr. Sleepy Man is a sandbox-adventure where you play as a sleepy guy who's not really in control of his own actions. It's up to you to decide whether this world is a sweet dream or a nightmare.

Mr. Sleepy Man has many tricks up his...pajamas. He can just about interact with anything he gets his little hands on. Let's hope he doesn't accidently break someone's dreams in the process.

What can Mr. Sleepy Man do?

Chris and Trevor from Squid Shock Studios join the IBIF crew to discuss their new game Bō, as well as their journey to founding their studio. Sit back and relax as we have a fun and energetic conversation with 2 really cool dudes!

Bō is a hand-drawn 2.5D adventure platformer based in a colorful world of Japanese folklore. You play as a tiny fox spirit that grows from lotus blossom after being blessed by the moon god.

Use your legendary bō staff to bounce and move fluidly through a delightfully-demonic east asian fever dream. Use the tight movement and reset system to reach areas efficiently and gracefully or recover chaotically while floundering for footing.

Fluid jumping, bouncing and aerial/acrobatic movement and combat is taken to a new level of flow and complexity and becomes central to the game play.

Meet new characters when you least expect and help them on their quests, unravel the mystery of why Bō was sent to this realm and find your greater purpose.

Wyatt, Diego, Greg from Everook join the I Beat It First crew to discuss their latest game, Damaged in Transit! Damaged in Transit is a split attention puzzle game where you attempt to deliver packages with 2 autonomous drones at the same time. Beware of spikes, fire, and water as you change the direction of gates just in the nick of time. Worst than those traps though, are the game jams these developers have participated in to get to this point. Damaged in Transit it out now on Steam and Nintendo Switch.
