The Persistence of (Stories about) Memory, with Henrik Pettersson
ETAO Podcast, Episode 40.
http://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/etao.files.wordpress.com/2018/10/etao-podcast-40.mp3
Henrik Pettersson introduces us to The Gardens Between, a wordless narrative puzzle game in which you play as time itself. We talk about themes surrounding memory, the quest to make complicated games simple (and vice-versa), the seemingly-ever-in-progress indiepocolypse, and a few untranslatable Swedish words.
Oh, and SPOILERS for Persona 5 from 01:03:38 to 01:05:15, for some damn reason.

• Did you know that the Swedish language has 100 discrete words for “insufficiently soundproof?” It’s a fact, probably!
• Here are some of those ideas about memory and retention.
• Here’s that Polygon article on there being “too many games.”
• And here’s my sleepy-ass playthrough of Kentucky Route Zero.
• And here’s my interview with Joel Corelitz about GOROGOA.
• We don’t talk about it in the interview, but the game’s “ambient slow trailer” is just lovely.
