It’s our Thursday the 20th Episode and we’ve got a lot of friends as well as a Cavity Busters interview, so let’s roll!
The show kicks off with Jacob Garner & Aki on hand to welcome friends Grant “Stemage” Henry and Bri “LadyMagritte” Galgano to the show to further welcome Adrian Riedman, the solo dev also known as SpaceMyFriend, to the show to chat about his game Cavity Busters and the recent console release through JanduSoft! We chat about the development, weird stuff in the game, working with JanduSoft and his composer Ben Ridge, and tons more!
After Adrian heads out, it’s news of the week as we cover the latest additions and departures to Xbox Game Pass, the departures of Frank O’Connor & Mark Healey from Microsoft & Media Molecule respectively, SEGA buying Rovio, Diablo IV going gold, Nintendo Switch online additions, and a ton of acquisitions. We also discuss the fact that “language stacks” should not exist in gaming and it’s good to see Microsoft taking a stand against them. Plus reviews!
