The Pitch

Everything To Guppy is a bite-sized, four-times weekly comedy/gaming podcast in which Gary Butterfield (Watch Out For Fireballs) and William Hughes (The A.V. Club) attempt to analyze every single item, boss, character, and concept in the rogue-lite video game The Binding Of Isaac. They manage to pull it off only slightly less than 50 percent of the time.

A clown, his horrible stick, and a very normal woman end the world and have to try to un-end it. But we mostly end up talking about sex toys and weird Captain Planet villain eggs.

This week we have a special episode where we survey some Dark Souls Youtube creators that we've enjoyed recently. Instead of lore, these creators focus on cut content, technical explanations, glitches, and different kinds of speed and challenge runs. Take the time to subscribe and check all of them out, because they're quite informative.

• Zulie the Witch - Short dissection videos.
• Ray Dhimitri - Dark Souls 2-focused close looks and dissections.
• Ymfah - Souls series challenge runs.
• BonfireVN - Fun "fight" videos (i.e. Gwyn's four knights vs. Manus).
• Phobia - Skips and glitch explanation, focusing on current versions of each game.
• Catalystz - Speed run explanations.
• Sinclair Lore with Sylvie Pillbeam - Fun, chill in-depth Souls topic discussions.
• The LoreHunter - Close reads of Elden Ring materials.
• IllusoryWall - You know what he does!

Here's the relevant Twitter information: @ZullieTheWitch, @RayDhimitri, @_ymfah, #bonfireVN, @PhobiaSoft, @catalystz_, @SinclairLore, @TheLoreHunter, @IllusoryWall

Reminder that you can read along with and ahead of the show by subscribing to Marvel Unlimited (we don't get paid for you doing that, so it's not an ad, it's just a cool service). You can also use Comixology, or buy the trades from your local comic book shop (the preferred method, if we're being honest). Be sure to check with your local library to see if they have them there!

This uninspiring platformer about a bubblegum chewing pirate slayer gives us plenty of opportunity to talk about Gary facing his greatest fear: Jellyfish.

Kole, Ben, Dennis, and David talk about Storybook Brawl, Lobotomy Corporation, and Oxygen Not Included.

• David: No Man’s Sky.
• Ben: Storybook Brawl. Magic Arena. Oxygen Not Included.
• Dennis: Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville. Final Fantasy VII Remake.
• Kole: Darkest Dungeon. Lobotomy Corporation.

• What video game location would make the best vacation destination?

• Darkest Dungeon II releases on October 26.
• Deathloop gets rave reviews.
• Gas Station Simulator releases this week.
• Developer somehow uses Steam as his porn stash.
• Splitgate developer gets tons of funding.

You remember your venerable network? The one you're listening to right now?

Big thanks to Jack for throwing this lil number our way. A systems forward strategy game sort of about being the HR guy for a lovecraftian hamlet, but it's so much more. We've rarely been more in The Gary Zone than this, and while K is a lil cooler on it, he can see that there's so much to admire here. Buckle up for roughly 3.5 hours of sugar, minus some talk about that shitty 3rd mission in the darkest dungeon. 

It's time crimes right on down the line as we tackle the forgotten 2010 shooter, Singularity. Created by Raven Software right before they were exiled to the Call of Duty mines, it's a fast-paced shooter with ambitious but under-explored time manipulation mechanics. You play as an American special forces soldier investigating a disturbance at an old Soviet military facility called Katorga-12, and by the end of things you could end up with godlike powers.
