As part of our lost episodes series, we are happy to share this interview with Sebastian Rangger, Technical Artist of Weaving Tides a delightful adventure game that's available now on Steam and Nintendo Switch.

After several months of behind the scenes work, we can finally announce Forever Classic Games LLC, an official business version of our games media outlet passion project. We've put in years of effort building this idea and we're ready to take things to the next level. Join Alex, Zach, and Joe as they break down the new announcements, reflect on 2021, and look forward to 2022.

With the release of the Monster Hunter film, Alex employs the expertise of his good friend Nathan Marchand, a Kaiju Academic, Writer, and Podcaster. Does the monumental game Monster Hunter World translate well into film? Not really, but that doesn't stop it from being fun.

Featuring guest appearance by: Izzy of The Nerdy Ladies with Opinions Podcast, Larry and Justin of The Here's Johnny Podcast, Rachel of The Zombie Grrlz Podcast (among other cool projects!), and Twitch streamer DangerPenguin aka Randy.

After a long pause, Alex, Zach, and Joe get together to talk about games in 2020. Looking back and looking ahead, they discuss a multitude of titles throughout the medium as well as share some of the shows/comics/books that they've been enjoying.

Henpaku, one of the top speedrunners of Dead Cells (current WR of Any% as of this recording), joins Alex and Zach for a deep discussion about the intricacies of running a game with random elements and how the run has changed since release. He also talks about a darker moment that those outside of the Dead Cells community may not have even known about involving a moment of cheating. Henpaku's redemption story is one that fascinated us and we were thankful for him opening up on our show. We also learned that finding an Xbox controller in Japan is quite a task.

Joe and Alex interview Brandon Braun about his first retail game Frogsong, which was featured in the Wholesome Direct.

Dylan Walker of ONERAT Games joins Zach and Alex to talk about the eldritch adventure game Elden: Path of the Forgotten, which is available now on Steam, Utomik, and Nintendo Switch and was published by Another Indie.

Forrest Dowling joins us to talk about the upcoming village-builder Drake Hollow which will soon launch on Xbox One, Windows 10, and Steam on July 17th. Andrew Peggs of Marooners' Rock also joins the interview.
