Welcome to episode 211
Sorry in advance for the audio, Ram was broadcasting from the sticks so the quality is poor.
Ram has been turning lead into gold and building production line in Magnum Opus, from the creators of Space Chem except working with more fantastical components and building efficient production lines.
Skazz has been breaking into his backlog and been enjoying and old school side scrolling beat-em-up Renegade, the bastardized US version of Kunio-kun where the game was localized into the US market
We also look at the changes to Big Picture mode to bring it in line with steam deck and Skazz discuss what he like about his deck
Also, Ram reveal his amazing system of episode numbering, we reminisce of our old computer school days including turtles, full fibre Broadband and who was Buddha
Notes:
The ancient programming memory of Logo

Buddha was a real person, our ignorance knows no bounds

Ram has been creating alchemical compounds in Opus Magnum
A heavy re-skinned side scroller beat them up Renegade
