The Gaming Blind Podcast

Sorry for the relatively short episode this week.  I've been struggling with sleep more than usual recently, so you're getting a random assortment of short topics, including my experiences finally beating FTL with all ships, my frustration with Steam apparently deleting my Dicey Dungeons save, an upcoming spinoff of Crypt of the Necrodancer, and an interesting (but flawed) Pokemon fangame where you play as a gym leader!  I also discuss my own Pokemon gym leader project that may or may not become its own series of episodes.  Hope you're okay with a very sleep-deprived version of me rambling about all this and more!

Trying a new show notes format because I keep forgetting to write down the silly things I say.  This week, I cover Pokemon Red Battle Factory Edition.  It's a hack of Pokemon Red where you are locked in a factory and forced to fight dozens of random trainers with a set of random Pokemon that Professor Oak gives you.  The AI is either a big ol' cheater or unbelievably good at predicting Pokemon switches, the random 'mons you get are either horrible or ludicrously overpowered, and your prize for winning the game is Professor Oak telling you to go outside.  But it's still enjoyable and a nice change of pace from the usual Pokemon fare.  Also, DREAM TALK because I know you love listening to me talk about my weird and terrible dreams.

On this week's garish episode of The Gaming Blind Podcast, Samuel doesn't remember what decade it is, would like to read stuff, and doesn't know when IT is going to happen while discussing another five games he will never finish: Mr. Driller (on the PS1), Dead Pixels (on Xbox 360/PC), Sokobond (on PC), Hack, Slash, Loot (on PC), and Downwell (on PC)!

On this week's bottomless episode of The Gaming Blind Podcast, Samuel thinks someone tried to shame him, barrels through, and is known in Japan as The Lord of King while discussing NES platformer Astyanax!  Please send me your angry tweets explaing how to pronounce Astyanax.

On this week's narratively-driven episode of The Gaming Blind Podcast, Samuel watches a couple people, has a decent amount of mechanics, and time travels a few days into the past while discussing indie computer hacking simulator game Hacknet!  He knows Linux commands!

On this week's nervous episode of The Gaming Blind Podcast, Samuel finally gets around to doing it, hopes to mix it up, and doesn't know what's going to come out of his mouth while discussing Genesis/Mega Drive...real-time roguelike (?) ToeJam & Earl!  Are you a rapmaster or a funk lord?

On this week's weird episode of The Gaming Blind Podcast, Samuel should have given more notice, consideres himself some semblance of normal, and deals with the consequences of his actions while discussing NES platformer Darkwing Duck!  When there's trouble, you call...uh...Ghostbusters?  I dunno.

On this week's concerned episode of The Gaming Blind Podcast, Samuel shuts himself down, weighs his options, and has to have those xtreme kool letterz while discussing the painfully 1990's Genesis/Mega Drive beat-em-up Comix Zone!

On this week's vast episode of The Gaming Blind Podcast, Samuel will not be alive in 200 years, comes up with alternatives, and runs rampant through California while discussing Genesis/Mega Drive pinball/platformer game Sonic Spinball!
