xGravy_Boi99x slicks back his hair with a greasy switchblade-turned-comb he always keeps hanging precariously out of his back left jeans pocket before cracking his knuckles loudly in an empty room. As he reaches forwards to gargoyle over his mouse and keyboard, the fabric of his genuine leather jacket squeaks slightly as it slides against the synthetic leather upholstry of a limited edition Genshin Impact branded Iskur gamer chair from Razer. He opens up the Metacritic page of his latest victim and just goes to town on that thing. There are no survivors.

Tetris and Katamari Damacy represent two similar but opposing approaches to video game design that emphasize different aspects of gameplay and aesthetics. By scrutinizing where a game falls on this spectrum, we may garner insights into its design and mechanics, as well as its potential impact on players. In this edition of the Into the Aether Audio Experience, we shall delve into this Tetris-to-Katamari spectrum and its implications for game design and player experience, and unravel the mysteries that lie within.Discussed: Wild Hearts, PlayStation Portable, Ratchet and Clank: Size Matters, Rock Band Unplugged, Jeanne D'Arc, Me & My Katamari, Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, God of War: Chains of Olympus, God of War: Ghost of Sparta, Burnout Legends---Find us everywhere: https://intothecast.onlineJoin the Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/intothecast---Follow on Mastodon: https://theaether.space/@intothecastFollow on Tumblr: https://intothecast.tumblr.com---Follow Stephen Hilger: https://stephenhilgerart.com/Follow Brendon Bigley: https://theaether.space/@bbProduced by AJ Fillari: https://theaether.space/@aj---Season 5 Cover Art by Scout Wilkinson: https://scoutwilkinson.myportfolio.com/---Timecodes: (00:00) - Intro (03:47) - No time for segues // Wild Hearts (28:42) - PSP-yoo!!!!!

Oh man, as a huge fan of Tingle, let me tell you about Tingle Kiwami - it's a game that puts our favorite little green freak right smack in the middle of the Yakuza universe! And let me tell you, it's incredible! The world is super colorful and whimsical, and Tingle's unique personality and magical powers make the game feel like a fresh take on classic Yakuza gameplay. I had a blast using Tingle's dance moves to make friends, solve puzzles, and take down bad guys. Plus, the story is full of bloody twists and turns that kept me hooked, and the graphics and sound are totally on point.

The latest trend in fashion and aesthetic is a revival and revisiting of the arguable hit 2006 Dreamworks film Over the Hedge. With its whimsical characters, witty humor, and heartwarming storyline, people are starting to rediscover the charms of this animated classic. The film's aesthetic has become increasingly popular as people seek comfort in nostalgia and a return to simpler times. "Over the Hedge" is a charming and relatable film that seemingly has timeless appeal, and its reemergence as a cultural touchstone as "Hedge-Core" will continue to be a major trend in the coming months.Austin Walker on Forspoken: https://www.clockworkworlds.com/post-cringe/Discussed: Hi-Fi Rush, Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call, Persona 4 Golden, Fire Emblem Engage, Marvel SNAP---Find us everywhere: https://intothecast.onlineJoin the Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/intothecast---Follow on Mastodon: https://theaether.space/@intothecastFollow on Tumblr: https://intothecast.tumblr.com---Follow Stephen Hilger: https://stephenhilgerart.com/Follow Brendon Bigley: https://theaether.space/@bbProduced by AJ Fillari: https://theaether.space/@aj---Season 5 Cover Art by Scout Wilkinson: https://scoutwilkinson.myportfolio.com/---Timecodes: (00:00) - Intro (00:51) - There was an Xbox direct (02:25) - Talking about the layoffs (03:37) - A shadow (bass) drop // Hi-Fi RUSH (42:31) - Keepin' the rhythm train a-rollin'! // Theaterhythm: Curtain Call (54:13) - MORE video games?????!!! // Persona 3/4/5 (01:37:39) - That's it (01:45:42) - Wrapping up ---Thanks to all of our amazing patrons including our Eternal Gratitude members: | Evan B | Robert L | min2 | Aaron G | Matthew S | Erik M | ThatNerdyGinger | Joshua J | Tony L | Danny K | Shanna P | Seth MC | Adam B | Andy H | Demo | Maxwell L | Spiritofthunder | Jason W | Jason T | Corey T | Minnow Eats Whale | Caleb W | Jesse W | Mike T | Codes | Wesley | Erik B | Butterfly B | Gabe O | Lasse B | Jeff N | Sergio L | ninjadeathdog | Rory B | A42PoundMoose | Mr Andrew S | Peter | Stellar.Bees | Brendan K | Scott R | wreckx | Noah OR | Michael G | Arcturus | Chris R | hepahe | Chase A | Anna | Nick Q | Chris M | RB | Karen H | Michaela W | Adam F | Scott H | Lauren H | Ben G | Therese K | jgprinters | Matt H | Murray | Trevor B | David P | Jason K | Bede R | Kamrin H | Andrew D | Kyle S | Philip N ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

It's helpful to look back on how you spent your journey — writing every haiku, dueling every villain, chasing every fox — and asking yourself if it all felt rewarding in some way be it emotionally or otherwise. It's helpful to look forward at the end of your journey and wonder how the world will look different through your new gaze. It's also helpful to ask if the journey is even over at all, or if the island is going to double in size and make you chase like 12-15 more foxes so you can get more skill points or something.Discussed: Yakuza Kiwami, Yakuza 0, Yakuza 7: Like a Dragon, MultiVersus, FTL: Faster Than Light, Into the Breach Mobile, Live A Live, Animal Crossing: New Leaf---Find us everywhere: https://intothecast.onlineJoin the Discord: https://theworstgarbage.onlineFollow Stephen Hilger: https://twitter.com/StephenHilgerFollow Brendon Bigley: https://twitter.com/brendonbigley---Produced by AJ Fillari: https://twitter.com/ajfillariSeason 5 Cover Art by Scout Wilkinson: https://scoutwilkinson.myportfolio.com/---Join the Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/intothecastThanks to all of our amazing patrons!★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
