¡Ni la caracterización del salvador en una máquina voladora podrá detenernos !¡Porque es lunes y SpreadShotNews Podcast ya llegó! En este episodio: Maxi arranca el último round de la Ace Combathon con Ace Combat 7: Skies Unknown y también arranca el Beast of Reincarnation y nos cuenta sus escuetas primeras impresiones. Nico por su parte se va de travesía en Big Walk. En el Rapid-Fire, hablamos sobre algunas noticias de la semana; como EA oficialmente confirmando que fue adquirida por el Fondo Público de Inversión Saudi, Devolver Digital decide que volver a ser una empresa privada es lo mejor para su futuro, y Halo Studios no renueva contratos de múltiples subcontratados en el estudio después de la salida de Campaign Evolved. Para el Hot Coffee, charlamos un poco sobre el China Joy 2026, algunos de los juegos mostrados ahí y la falta casi total de cobertura del evento más grande en concurrencia de toda la industria. Para finalizar, en el Special Move, Nico recomienda la película PSYCHO GOREMAN y el evento Muere Monstruo Muere.

From the monstrous mind of Mullins.For this episode, our duo debates the devious deck-builder developed by Daniel Mullins Games and published by Devolver Digital. Chris has played Pony Island, so he's aware of this fellow's other work, but Tom has come utterly unprepared. Will the alleged roguelike nature of the game send them both running, or will the mix of multiple genres soften that aspect enough to keep them engaged and entertained? Following the standard rules, each host has sacrificed an hour of their time and now they meet to decide if that's one offering you should make willingly as well!What do you think? Let us know!Check out all our links here:https://linktr.ee/tc1h1dThanks for taking this ride with us :-)
Retro Entre Amigos 14x10 - Retrasos y Mazmorras Saludos a todos los queridos amigos del Retro Tenemos el placer de abandonar playas y piscinas para acercarnos un rato a vuestros dispositivos de escucha y también para reencontrarnos y charlar de nada y de todo al mismo tiempo. En esta ocasión, entre otros asuntos... pequeña pero notoria polémica con nuestra sintonía. Desde Spotify nos han “baneado” el último programa y mucho me temo que ya lo estarán haciendo en otros por utilizar en nuestra cabecera el tema “Shadows” de la artista Lindsey Stirling. Después de 14 años usándolo... nos inunda la pregunta… ¿Debemos cambiar de sintonía?... debemos vivir en la aparente ilegalidad? .... Respuestas y opciones varias. Nos gustaría saber vuestra opinión. Por otro lado, repasamos en dos bloques intenso correo de los oyentes ya que aparentemente el ultimo programa en el que dedicamos mucho tiempo a hablar de la Neo Geo AESPlus ha motivado que nos escribáis y comentéis bastante lo cual AGRADECEMOS mucho. No hay nada como saber que “estáis ahí” y que lo que decimos os interesa aunque no coincidáis en absoluto con lo que se habla en la mesa “muy cuadrada”. En el “Juego del mes”, os acercamos una producción de “No Code” publicada por “Devolver Digital” del año 2017 (¿¿¿¿¿es esto retro?????) llamada “Stories Untold”. Un juego muy MUY especial que me temo gustará y será odiado a partes iguales. ¿Aventura conversacional?... ¿Gestión física de elementos? …. ¿Pasillos 3D agobiantes?... SI y al mismo tiempo NO. Difícil de explicar y emocionante de experimentar. Como película recomendada, os acercamos “El Gigante de Hierro”. Una pequeña obra maestra de la animación clásica que incorpora algunos elementos en 3D y que fracasó en taquilla, pero triunfó en los corazones de algunos. Una película no desconocida pero lamentablemente olvidada y que provocó que Warner Bros abandonase la animación 2D durante mucho tiempo. Todo esto.. y mucho menos… comentando TODAS las novedades de RETROPIXEL 2026 y que os recomendamos vayáis mirando ya en www.retropixel.es ya que estamos poniendo actividades, conferencias y novedades tal como las estamos cerrando. Falta NADA ¡!!. Esperamos veros por allí. Retrosaludos Josua Ckultur & La Alegre Pandilla

Our latest side quest is sure to appeal to all swipes—er, types! When we first discussed Reigns: The Witcher, the new “swipe 'em up” mobile game from CDPR, Nerial and Devolver Digital, we failed to answer one very important question: which member of the Whiskey with Witcher crew can survive for the longest in the game after drinking copious amounts of alcohol? Well, you're about to find out! Recorded a few days after Reigns: The Witcher's release, we each take a spin until three things become clear. First, we probably should have practiced a lot more. Second, battling is really hard when you're drinking cask-strength whiskey. And three, this is the wildest episode we've recorded in quite some time. Enjoy!
Celebrating two hundred episodes of this very silly Devolver Digital podcast, we wrangled TWENTY FIVE different Devolver team members to answer seven questions about Devolver and the ForkCast! So buckle up for The Megainterview and thank you for listening!
In this episode of The Short Game, Nate, Laura, and Shane dive into BALL x PIT, a roguelite block breaker published by Devolver Digital. Recorded a couple of months ago, the episode comes out in time for the release of a free DLC adding new content to the game. The discussion covers the game's unique blend of ball-firing mechanics, character abilities, and city-building elements. Does BALL x PIT respect your time? Maybe, maybe not, but it's a good time either way.

In this episode of Pixelated Playgrounds, Josh Galecki and Bryan Skursha tackle Baby Steps, the 2025 overly literal walking simulator developed by Gabe Cuzzillo, Maxi Boch, and Bennett Foddy and published by Devolver Digital. Known for games that turn basic movement into existential comedy (QWOP, Getting Over It, etc.), the team delivers another strange, hilarious experiment in control and patience. We embody Nate, a 35-year-old basement-dwelling failson, who is dropped into a vast mountain wilderness and must literally learn how to walk using deliberately awkward controls which turn every footstep into a small triumph or a catastrophic pratfall. Along the way we dig into the open-ended world design, the absence of a map, the optional “gamer bullshit” challenges like hats and dares, and why Baby Steps is less about rage and more about embracing failure, exploration, and weird little stories that only happen because you fell down a hill the wrong way. So listen in as we learn about patience, humility, and how sometimes the only way forward is face-planting, laughing, and taking one more careful step on the path.Three Word Reviews:Bryan - Victory in DefeatJosh - Enjoying the Journey

Alex and Luke Talk Cult of the Lamb.Ever wanted to combine dungeon crawling, base management, and theological terror into one cozy indie experience? That's exactly the blend Cult of the Lamb serves. Developed by Massive Monster and published by Devolver Digital, this darkly adorable roguelike management mash-up dropped on August 11, 2022. You play a resurrected lamb who must build a loyal cult, perform rituals, and crusade through twisted lands to free a mysterious deity. It's cute, creepy, and weirdly compelling.On Metacritic, Cult of the Lamb scores an 82 (PC) among critics. According to reviews and “How Long to Beat,” a standard playthrough lands in the 15–20 hour range. Go for completion, side content, or cult perfection, and it stretches further. It's a neat balance point: deep enough to feel meaningful, short enough to avoid burnout.Both hosts tackled this one on their Steam Decks, with Alex also dipping into the PC version for a spell. Neither of them made it to the ultimate “credits roll” — instead, they got deep into the loops, the rituals, and the existential questions of lamb-leadership. They came away with both love and critiques of the pacing, combat variety, and the inevitable moral compromise.This episode is unofficially brought to you in part by “Fantasy Football.

Alex and Luke Talk The Plucky Squire.What if a storybook adventure literally jumped off the page? That's the magic trick The Plucky Squire pulls off. Developed by All Possible Futures and published by Devolver Digital, this imaginative action-adventure launched in July 2024 and instantly stood out for its clever transitions between 2D and 3D gameplay. With a charming visual style, punchy combat, and playful surprises around every corner, it's a game that wears its heart—and its gimmick—on its sleeve.At the time of recording, The Plucky Squire held a Metacritic score of 83 on PC and 72 on Nintendo Switch. According to HowLongToBeat, the main story clocks in around 8.5 hours, though that can stretch with exploration (and admiring the delightful art direction). It's short, sweet, and stylistically sharp—but not without a few rough edges.Alex played on Nintendo Switch, Luke on Steam Deck. Both made it to the final page and rolled credits. This is one of those rare games where the journey was as fun to talk about as it was to play—especially when it leapt from side-scroller to Zelda-lite to rhythm brawler to full-on tank sequence. You just have to see it to believe it.This episode is unofficially brought to you in part by summer time ice cream runs.Audio Credits:“The Plucky Squire Theme” from The Plucky Squire Original Soundtrack — composed by Madeleine Wood — © Devolver Digital.Original theme music owned by Low Five Gaming.
