Sky Pirate Radio

Things get pear-shaped in the sweetest way on this week's Sky Pirate Radio. We get into how project Getaway Grand Prix has been developing, as well as an update on how Lamplit and Sword Club have been proceeding. Meanwhile, we prepare for lockdown by doing what we do best: twiddlin' our thumbs upon some itsy bitsy games such as Animal Crossing: New Horizons, this podcast's Game Club, Heart Star, and the quiet return of Kevyn's Mobile Korner with Disney Magic Kingdom. We then become frightened and frazzled from out wits to our tips by Resident Evil: Revelations, Resident Evil 3 (PS1), and Resident Evil 3 (Demo). Jace also goes sleuthing around the streets of Kamurocho in Judgment, searching for an answer to the horrible question: how high can Kevyn jump? You can only find the answer one way, buster—in a freaking new Sky Pirate Radio, dude!

Quarantined but ready to break out, it's the 38th instalment of Sky Pirate Radio! In today's embarkation, Jace and Kevyn unveil the inner workings of our new prototype, the maze-racin' arcade caper, Getaway Grand Prix, as well as formally introducing Kevyn's upcoming merch store, FabLab! It's all uphill from there as the Kevyn contracts symptoms of Pac-Man Fever before coming to blows with Jace over their polarising thoughts on the Final Fantasy VII Remake Demo. Jace encounters the second stage of grief in Snack World and the second stage of fear in Resident Evil 2 before the boys kiss, make up, and go cosmic with this weeks Game Club: Dragon Quest of the Stars, before closing things out with dash of the classical Mickey Mouse Ultraviolence. Sky Pirate Radio: FIRST AND ONLY scratch 'n sniff podcast!

Gettin' crusty in the ears but partying like nothing's wrong, it's episode 37 of Sky Pirate Radio! This week, postulation springs as we detail how work continues on Lamplit, Sword Club, and an ALL-NEW PROTOTYPE we are developing! Kevyn looks back at the Kirby franchise sliding into Squeak Squad, learns about rats on his first journey into Metal Gear Solid, and wins big in Fortune Street (much to Mario's chagrin). Jace enters the world of survival horror in Resident Evil, enters the world of survival horror in Ring Fit Adventure, and enters the world of desire horror in Snack World: The Dungeon Crawl GOLD! We wrap things up in a Neat Nice Bow talking Game Club with the as-described ElecHead, and unveiling our pitch to Ubisoft for the third exciting entry into the Red Steel franchise—Red Steel 3: Disneyland. All bets are off on SKY PIRATE RADIO! 

No topic is left ventured in our first gathering of the minds for 2020: we spill the beans on our Mobile Quest prototype and several other sneaky projects the we're cooking up at the moment. In the meantime, Kevyn has been researching the hottest mobile games, exploring the visceral horrors of Luigi's Mansion the Third and Star Wars Battlefront the Second. Meanwhile, Jace is playing Skyward Sword for some reason, and we discuss the toy-like nature of the motion controls before sharing an intimate "Wii Moment". Alas, the night isn't over until we all scream about our new favourite game, SONIC BOLL, pondering how the likes of Guybrush Threepwood and the Crazy Frog would fare in Mario World. We cap things off by reviving the long-forgotten segment, PITCH THAT GAME!, to tackle the greatest game design challenge ever faced: creating a game known only as "Guilty Slug".

Next week, we will be talking about Elechead on the podcast, which you can check out for a price of your choosing here! 

If you have questions about our upcoming games, want to contribute to Game Club or Pitch That Game, or wish to probe Kevyn's personal life, give us a hoot and/or holler at @skypirateradio or [email protected]! We love hearing from you, and Kevyn says he will answer ANY question. Please do not squander this golden-ticket opportunity.

The streets are alive with scuttlebutt this week as the boys embark upon journeys the likes of which have never been seen: as Kevyn begins his vision quest to make a game in fifty (50!) days, Jace takes to the virtual realm with PSVR games and a cinematic experience he won't soon forget. Words are exchanged about the new Shovel Knight Showdown and King of Cards content, unleashing Steven Universe's light on Apple Arcade, and our trawl through the cyber-dunes of our Game Club, Void Pyramid. No matter what it is, there's always much ado about something when you're tuned in to Sky Pirate Radio!

Bouncing off of their seminal "Flubber" episode, Jace and Kevyn are back again to talk all things Riverdale, Archie, and Archie comics. Recalling our contractual obligation to discuss games in the show, we share our thoughts on Terry Bogart entering the Smash Bros. fray, the stress of delivering Hot Wheels in the grim future of Death Stranding, the President of the United States' wild journey into Ni no Kuni 2, and Jace's very favourite game that he loves the most, Knack. We cap it off talking about our Game Club game of the week, rogue-like shooty-time Monolith, before capping off the day with some QnA which quickly takes a turn into revealing EXCLUSIVE secrets behind such rare Australian treats. Uncover the mystery of Bertie Beetle today with Sky Pirate Radio!

In this disquieting post-Halloween episode, Kevyn has finally exiled himself into Phone Game-Jail for his Time Crimes, but that doesn't stop him from blowin' the bloody doors off with his old pal Jace talking about scare-'em-up Luigi's Mansion 3, and taking a small trip down memory lane with our old friends, Flubber and Ultraman. We cleanse the palette by talking about the Watchmen TV show, and, more importantly, the recent happenings of "Riverdale", before we gather 'round the campfire to talk about our game of the week, Paratopic. From horror, to comedy, to thriller, to drama—Sky Pirate Radio has more where that came from, Buster!

Equipped with two high-tech Formula-1 cars and a little bit of heart, those Sky Pirate boys are at it again⁠—in a race against time! In our latest episode, Kevyn remembers the Alamo, gets caught up in a King’s Tale and is smothered by Other: Her Loving Embrace, while Jace crosses his t’s in Crossniq+ and peels out in Mario Kart Tour.  Then, together, as a family, we explore the hidden horrors of night life in our Game Club pick, theclub.zone⁠—all before rushing to the end of our race to attend our long-awaited interview with Sid Meier! Will we make it on time? There’s only one way to find out, and it starts with SKY PIRATE RADIO!

You better believe Jace and Kevyn are tuckin’ in for a ruddy good podcast today! We go over the name change of our latest Sky Pirates joint, Blazing Barrels, as well as what’s the newest and latest on the project. We also discuss Kevyn’s exciting new patch-making venture, touch on Apple Arcade and its frightening business model, fight brutal, bloody skirmishes in Gears of War and Kirby Clash, announce the return of Game Club (!!!) and finally answer a listener question, discussing the inspirations for Blazing Barrels.

Next week we’ll be talking about theclub.zone, a game which you can play right now just by CLICKING THESE MAGICAL LITTLE WORDS! Share any thoughts or questions through [email protected] or Twitter and we’ll discuss it on the show! We love you SO MUCH!
