Jusant (2023): What's The Worst You've Gotten Stuck?

Infinite Cities ·

2024/08/29

Jusant, a French word which translates to the English word "ebb" aka the movement of the tide out to sea. The ocean has receeded, bit by bit, until nothing was left but the Great Basin. And emerging from that basin, one valiant climber and their adorable little guy. Where are they going? Why are they going? What's even up there? Who knows! Find out with Karp, Will, and Gary as we travel up The Tower! in this episode: no feather, climbing buttons, a desert full of boats, the bestest little guy,

GHOST TRICK MONTH, BABY. play it play it PLAY IT To cap this game off - and really bury it - we've brought on resident Ghost Trick expert Bluey (they/them)! The world is not ready for our combined powers, and Ghosts are everywhere and they won't stop Tricking! Things get wildly out of hand, disasters happen, people die, we travel through time, and also we talk about Ghost Trick!

Ghost Trick (2011) Part 2: What's Up, Ghost?

Infinite Cities ·

2024/08/16

It's always fun, following up on a game we've already done an episode about, and because we've already declared it The Month of Ghost Trick, Will and I are here to talk about the second-third of the game. Ghost trick is a game of puzzles, and ghosts, and tricks. We zoom around the screen and lament that we aren't using the original DS stylus to do so. We rewind time again and again and suffer through slow walk cycles and devestated justice ministers. We fight the oppresive nature of photo albums

Updog (2024): Do You Know This Movie, Cats?

2024/08/08

Have you ever been ghosted? tricked? bamboozled? Well get ready, cause this week we aren't talking about Ghost Trick after all! Karp is away, so Feather, Will and Gary decided to spend some time with an adorable little game jam game recommeded by our friend Sins. It's Updog! in this episode: walking dogs, filling the doggy dex, inner and outer loops, a very feather-coded dog, way too many dogs, build your own difficulty, trombone champ sidebar, bag vodka, too many ewoks ~shoutouts zone~ Updog!

Ghost Trick (2011) Part 1: How Are You This Good At...

Infinite Cities ·

2024/08/01

Ghost trick was a commercial failure, or at least not enough of a commercial success to make Capcom happy. But I think they knew what they had - that's why they ported it eight times - including two separate Android ports. A large part has got to be that it's a lot weirder and harder to explain than it's more straightforward Pheonix Wright cousin, with strange spatial puzzle elements. Personally, I think they released it too early - if this had come out in 2020, gifs of it would have done

You wake up in a stack of hay. The innkeeper lets you have some leftovers for breakfast after you wash yourself in the river. In the neighbouring village there's strong men who are willing to help you remove the fallen tree, and another town has bandit problems. A third town has undead problems. There's 10 days left of summer. What do you do? In this episode: Feather is once again alone in her opinion, a great book, incredibly shitty Tumblr memes, talking to everyone without listening, savescumming

Helldivers! We (Will and Feather, at least) are not immune to propaganda, and so we're taking a break from our break from our regularly scheduled content to chat about a game that is both stupider and smarter than it first appears. BAH BAH BAH BAAAHHHHHHH In this episode: other games, don't read the forums, the Joel, helldivers lore is great, I hope you like fire tornadoes dumbass, I forgot to mention it but we did turn a planet into a black hole once, extremely cinematic explosions,

Roadwarden (2022): Can We Talk About Horses Again?

Infinite Cities ·

2024/07/11

Your travels take you to a crossing. To the east, a narrow path cuts through tangled brush and snarling thorns. The road north is clear, but you heard rumor horrific goblins wait in ambush. The west is open plains - clear, but in the distance you can make out the most horrific animal of all: packs of terrifying beasts known as "horses". Better chance the goblins and the thorns. In this episode: horses, literal magic, encyclopedia games, we describe a lot of systems but really the game isn't that

Firewatch (2016): Did You Try Flirting On Hardcore Mode?

Infinite Cities ·

2024/07/04

"Walking Sim" as a genre is a bit of a perjorative, but really - that's what we have here. You walk places, and things happen! That's the game. But even in that, there's a ton to talk about. Why is this game about being alone, so full of chatter? Can you find yourself in those dark woods? And perhaps most importantly, why is this walking sim so bad at walking? In this episode: flapjack, game of telephone, taking care of your knees, not a metroidvania, Lichenland, shoutout to the secret ending,

Guilty Gear -Strive- (2021): When Do You Get Good?

Infinite Cities ·

2024/06/28

Pow! Bang! Bop! This week we're FIGHTING! Or, well, we're talking about the potential of fighting, but really we're mostly commiserating about the state of Guilty Gear's story mode. Fighting games are hard and have a high barrier for entry, which is why we basically dance around the idea of it for an hour before throwing in the towel. If any sickos really wanna talk to Feather about fighting games though, you know where to find her. in this episode: lets rock, fighting games, feather blaming the

In this episode: bad hooks, how do we explain this, "fortnite" style colors!??, what are we doing here, cheese strats, idle game comparisons, come before Feather for judgement, this chair gives me health, breakdowns, every game needs a persona-style relationship system. ~shoutouts~ There is nothing here.

Inscryption (2021) Part 2: Did You Watch Lost?

2024/06/06

Hello Daniel Mullins. I know you are reading this. You have fallen into my trap, the trap of episode descriptions. Here, you will.. uh... one second. I'm getting from my producer that I've done a fourth-wall-break ep description before? And it's, quote, "not nearly as fun the third time". Hmm. I'm sure that's not relevant to my favorite fantastically balanced horror roguelike deckbuilder set in a spooky cabin! I love that good ol' card game. What's that? Sorry, I'm hearing from my producer again..

If you haven't played Inscryption before, what are you doing here? Go play and come back, seriously, we're spoiling stuff that you're better off not knowing when you go into the game! in this episode: not the whole onion, roguelike deckbuilders, creating cards, boss puzzles, escape room mystery, teeth teeth teeth, slay the spire, so many bones, a wall of flesh, get

Thank you to everyone who joined us for Taco De Mayo 4ever after! If you missed it, we took a second run down King of the Castle, a very excellent stream / party / role-playing(?) game where one person (Feather) got to rule a kingdom with an iron throne while a bunch of wretched losers (Karp, Gary, Will, and friends) all tried to harsh her vibes and ruin her chance at wonderful tyranny. Anyway, it's a good game, and good games are what we do here! So we're sitting down to talk about it! In this

TERMINAL IC39 - RESTRICTED ACCESS [SECURITY LEVEL 1] >>QUERY(COGMIND) Hot dang, Feather's writing the episode description and that means she gets to talk about how great this game is. So great, she procrastinated editing this episode to play more cogmind. Nevermind she procrastinated editing the last episode to play cogmind. What other game makes sensors so fun? How is rolling up on some dudes with quad rocket launchers both incredibly powerful and impeccably risky? Should I risk this entire run on

2024/04/18

Spiritfarer is an adorable little game, that on first inspection, looks like a fun, cozy little friend-em-up like Stardew Valley and friends. This is a lie. Spiritfarer is actually a coldly calculated trap, designed to lure you into making friends with friendly, interesting, deep characters explicitly so it can take them away from you, and then remind you what you've lost. The hug button isn't a cute fun thing - it's a necessity. Content warning: discussion of death and loss, spoilers for the
