It’s llamas and puns as Matt Cavanagh of Rogue Code joins the show to discuss his game VALA!

The show kicks off with Matt, as well as guest co-host Scott “K4rn4ge” Smith, joining to discuss Vicious Attack Llama Apocalypse, a rouge-lite-ish top town twin stick shooter starring vicious llamas! We all chat about the decision to go with llamas, the incredible number of llama puns, the long development of the game and the changes it brought, the feedback and difficulty, and tons more!

After Matt & Scott head out, Cole Martin joins to tackle all of the news of the week including Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Super Bomberman R, SEGA Genesis Collection, Hello Neighbor, Splinter Cell, Geralt in Soulcalibur VI, and tons more. Plus a Switch – or die trying giveaway and a truckload of reviews!
