This week we talk about an experimental indie adventure game that seems fine, we just weren't in the mood for it at the time. So we talk about proper marshmallows, letting 'er rip, and pepper spray.
This week we continue our discussion of Ashen, the indie Souls-like that's open world, made for co-op, built around side quests, and has terrible, terrible dungeons. Our frustration runneth over as we head toward the second major boss, Amiren, in the Seat of the Matriarch, on our guest to reassemble the Heart that will tell us where to find the bird that will restart the world.

Our old friend Matt Dickie turns his sights on making a... realistic?... simulation of prison life. Featuring lots of people in Bane masks. And full-screen brawls. And people carrying around television cameras. And toilets. And people telling you to stop being friends with yourself.

Big changes are on the way, as Brock has been burned by the OSI and the Monarch has license to arch, and possibly kill, Dr. Venture. The resulting pileup of plots and schemes is messier than we'd like, but it sets us up for cool things as the Venture Bros. proves that it's willing to kill its own status quo. Special thanks to Joshua Jarett for our cover art, Gwen May for our theme song, and Brayton Cameron for being our announcer....

Troma decided to take the disgusting and disturbing Toxic Avenger series and adapt it... for kids! What we got was a one season animated show that was a weak stab at Captain Planet, but at least it resulted in some neat toys. Oh, and some very bad video games.

Dennis: Jupiter Hell. David: Mothergunship. The Multiplayer: What extraneous systems in games would you want to get rid of? The End Boss: New AI helps train you to play games better. Amiga 500 Mini is coming soon. Idris Elba is Knuckles now....
It's about time! This week, we set our wayback machines to 1995 to discuss one of the most beloved games of all time. Chrono Trigger was part of a late salvo of 16-bit RPGs that defined a generation of storytelling for people who grew up with it. We have problems with the shallowness of its systems, but its charisma can't be denied.
Thank you Nicholas! Welcome to the Courtesy Dome where two polite midwesterners sensibly argue whether this game is good or bad. Is it a cool mystery story with a neat aesthetic? Or is it an effectively linear, barely interactive time tax? ONLY YOU CAN DECIDE. Paradise Killer is an odd duck. Part visual novel, part mystery adventure game, part 3d collectathon platformer? With light dating sim elements. We spoil the whole mystery here, so listener beware! Support Watch Out for Fireballs!...

This month we talk about five issues of really bad comic adaptations of Resident Evil, which should actually be really easy to adapt! It's nonsense, really, how WildStorm managed to biff this one so hard. What starts as half-assed, rushed retellings of the first two games expands into some slightly better, but still worthless expansions and side stories. How does Barry Burton's therapy go? What if there were zombies in the Eiffel Tower? What if there were some bats in a desert?
Nothing good ever happens to fictional people named Alec. Alec Trevelyan, Alec Holland, Alec Baldwin.... You might look at Swamp Thing fondly because of Alan Moore's run on the comic series, but most other attempts to use this strange character end up being really misguided and hollow. Case in point, this very bad NES game based on the very bad animated series.

Join us on a high flying, globetrotting fight against international assassins, as we lurch towards the most consequential season finale so far. Brock has been burned by the OSI, and Molotov Cocktease has provided him with dossiers on the three themed assassins who are out to knock him off. So he must protect the Venture family while also trying to save himself, as doom descends on the Venture compound. Special thanks to Joshua Jarett for our cover art, Gwen May for our theme song, and Brayton Ca...

This week has us looking at a fun little indie game about a young girl trying to use her dolls to figure out how people have sex. It's a very small project, made over three days for a game jam, but it's a fun springboard into a few conversations about sex and insecurity.
We begin our new series on Ashen by talking about the game's generalities, and fighting through the first boss. Most Soulslikes concern themselves with the end of the world, but this one has us midwifing a world's rebirth, and we're going to do that with combat and systems that are very familiar to Souls veterans.
