Welcome Back Slinky – The TouchArcade Show #479

In this week’s episode of The TouchArcade Show we spend some time going into detail about why we didn’t have a show last week… basically because an idiot crashed his car into my living room. We then talk at length about Google’s recent decision to shut down their internal game development studio and what we think that means for the future of the service and round out the show with some good old-fashioned discussion about mobile gaming stuff. You can find links to everything we discuss in the Show Notes below. Also: the slinky is back!

Don’t forget to shoot us emails with any questions, feedback, or anything else relevant or irrelevant to [email protected]. We read ’em all, and love decoding messages written entirely in emoji. As always, you can listen to us with the links below… And if you like what you hear, please subscribe and/or drop us a review in iTunes. Much appreciated!

As a companion to this audio podcast, we also do a video version of the same show that is exclusive to Patreon which allows you to see us playing the games we’re talking about.
