July 03, 2021Datamining & Leaks
Episode #203 of the Level Down Games Podcast. On today's show, Bryan & Kyle from leveldowngames.com are back to not talk about Mario Golf: Super Rush just yet.. that's next week! But we do have some thoughts on the recently released Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance and Beasts of Maravilla Island. It's also the end of June, which means half the year is already gone. It's time for Game of the Year So Far! The guys pick their favorites from 2021 so far. From there, a big issue in the gaming community right now is centered on datamining and actual leaks. We go over what has transpired this week and wonder what can be done to prevent things like this in the future. Plus, Cloudscape on Kickstarter for Kickstart My Heart!

June 15, 2021Diary of a Madman in a Digital E3 World
Episode #201 of the Level Down Games Podcast. On today's show, we've got a weird episode that falls smack in the middle of all the happenings of E3 week, so we're avoiding talking about anything major until next week's show to include it all! On this crazy solo episode, Bryan gives some in-depth early thoughts on Game Builder Garage and brief thoughts on Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, but we'll be diving into that more next week with Kyle! From there, Bryan has some thoughts on the current state of E3 2021 in its new (and hopefully short-lived) Digital Format, and has impressions on several of the Summer Game Fest Demo's releasing on Xbox this week. Plus, Peachleaf Valley on Kickstarter for Kickstart My Heart! Email the show at [email protected] with questions, feedback, suggestions, or whatever else you want!
