Une nouvelle voix fait son apparition dans Place des Fêtes, c'est celle de Juliette De Prigny notre experte en jeux vidéos ! Ce mois-ci c'est enquête et failles temporels avec Return Of The Obra Dinn

Aujourd'hui sur la Tsugi Radio, c'est potion magique pour tout le monde. Oui, même pour toi Obélix ! Partant du constat qu'il ne fait pas bon vivre en 2025 avec la liste des catastrophes qui s'annoncent, deux jeunes histrions sont allés dans la forêt à la recherche du savoir des druides. Ils ont observé le cycle de la lune, du soleil et des étoiles. En quête d'un état modifié de conscience, à grand renfort de rythmes psychédéliques, de basses enveloppantes et de mélopées enivrantes… Dans la potion magique de Walter Astral, pas de gui ou de genièvre, mais du banjo, de la TB303, du MPC et peut-être quand même un soupçon de LSD. Après une belle tournée en 2024, Walter Astral attaque l'année le pied sur le champignon avec Éclipse, un copieux premier album qui ne s'embarrasse pas des formats, le premier morceau fait 9 minutes et 17 secondes n'en déplaise aux plateformes de streaming. Dans Place des Fêtes, il va être question de Nitrolutin, de Turbofée, de Nouvelle Lune et d'un Serpent Mental, quelques-uns des personnages de leur premier album. Walter Astral qui est venu dans notre cabane de la Villette avec ses instruments pour une session live exclusive. Nouvelle voix, Juliette de Prigny viendra désormais chaque mois nous présenter ses jeux vidéos préférés. Aujourd'hui, on enquête sur The Return of the Obra Dinn, vaisseau-fantôme de la Compagnie des Indes, un jeu de Lucas Pope.

Featuring: Ammosart, Belghast, Grace, and Thalen   Hey Folks! We are down our West Coast contingent this week but carried forth with a relatively short show.  Bel talks a bit about the Anti Sanctum Alliance and how it seems to have actually made an impact at least in the pricing of Sanctum Tomes in the Legacy of Phrecia event. From there Thalen shares his experiences with The Roottrees Are Dead, which is a logic puzzle spiritual successor to games like Return of the Obra Dinn.  We move on to talking a bit about Monster Hunter Wilds and our early experiences so far.  We've needed some Palico shenanigans to help us cope with our present dystopia. Last week we got a new feature trailer for the upcoming Last Epoch Cycle 2 coming April 2nd.  We spend a bit of time talking about what has been revealed for the new features and how it appears like the long wait has been worth it.   Topics Discussed: Path of Exile Legacy of Phrecia Impact of the Anti-Sanctum Alliance The Roottrees Are Dead Monster Hunter Wilds Last Epoch Cycle 2 Trailer

Is Civilization from Avalon Hill and Gibsons Games still able to command 10 hours of your attention more than 40 years after its initial release? Can The Roottrees are Dead outdo Hypnospace Outlaw at Internet nostalgia and Return of the Obra Dinn at amateur sleuthing? Blending poker and heists, do we have a good enough hand to win The Gang? Are Ritz crisps? You have questions, and boy, do we have answers.

We share our anomalous initial thoughts on S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl plus we also discuss Return of the Obra Dinn, The Rise of the Golden Idol, Hogwarts Legacy, Leap Year, Nine Sols and more.

Welcome back to Pursuing Pixels.  We've got the usual trio back in the house once again, along with a trio of video games to discuss, so let's get right into it! We get things started of with some more 20 Minutes Till Dawn talk, as the game has gotten its hooks into Randall now, as well. John takes the torch from there, and dives into some more Monster Hunter action, after finding a workaround to get Frontier up and running on his Steam Deck. Finally, we wrap things up with a proper discussion of Return of the Obra Dinn, which was Kevin's resolution game for this year.   Timestamps: 20 Minutes Till Dawn  -  00:02:00 Monster Hunter Frontier  -  00:18:07 Return of the Obra Dinn  -  00:30:14   Thanks for taking the time to listen!  If you'd like to find us elsewhere on the Internet, you can find us at:

Time for one more bit of silly fun before we settle down to the serious business of 2024 GOTY picks? We certainly think so, as in this week's Indieventure episode, we're doing an indie game draft! That's right, three people who clearly know nothing about sports have nevertheless kitbashed the idea of fantasy football together with something we're actually interested in, and have designed our dream indie gaming consoles following a curious set of rules that Liam explains very well in the episode and so I won't repeat here, even though I do remember and understand them, honest. Due to the dramatic and intense nature of the game we're playing today, characterised as it is by shocking betrayals and twists nobody could ever see coming, I'm going to strongly recommend you don't read the show notes until you've listened to the episode. Does anyone even actually do that? Well, here's your chance to go in without spoilers. Seriously, go listen. Are you back? OK, good. So, since you've heard it now, you know that you, dear listener, have a chance to vote in our poll to determine the winner of the inaugural Indieventure draft slash console sales pitch! We'll have a poll up on socials for a week after the episode goes live because that's all Xitter will allow; but if you still want to take part after that, you can do so over at our lovely and still almost-brand-new Indieventure Discord, where the poll will be live for a whole fortnight and where you can also chat with some really cool and nice fellow listeners. As a reminder, then, the final console drafts were as follows: The MegaWatt Voyager, pitched by Rachel, and containing Paradise Killer, Kentucky Route Zero, Vampire Survivors, Hades, Cult of the Lamb, Hollow Knight, Loop Hero, Disco Elysium, Minecraft, and Undertale The Empathy Machine, pitched by Rebecca, which includes Heaven's Vault, Firewatch, Stardew Valley, Project Zomboid, Untitled Goose Game, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, Wedding Witch, Dredge, PowerWash Simulator, and Strange Horticulture The Indiescovery, not confusingly at all pitched by Liam, pre-loaded with Return of the Obra Dinn, What Remains of Edith Finch, Balatro, Rimworld, Deep Rock Galactic, Hotline Miami, Slay the Spire, Journey, Satisfactory, and Hypnospace Outlaw It's all down to you now, listeners, to let us know whose dream machine you think has the best launch line-up and/or who made the most compelling case for their pitch! The poll is open for two weeks, so I'm sure we'll be reacting to the results in a couple of episodes' time. Now, we had so much fun recording this episode that two hours just flew by before we knew it, and so we've elected to skip What We've Been Playing this week because frankly if you've made it this far into all the madness then you've probably listened to us natter enough. That being said, it wouldn't be an episode of Indieventure without a quick run-down of our current hyperfixations, so hang around for just a few extra minutes if you want to hear us enthuse about the TV series Agatha All Along (Rebecca), the novel Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson (Liam), and the recently-released indie game Neva (Rachel). Our music was written and performed by Ollie Newbury! Find him on Instagram at @newbsmusic. Meanwhile, you can find us at indieventurepodcast.co.uk or wherever you listen to podcasts, and don't forget that you can now join our dedicated Discord too!

Welcome back to Pursuing Pixels, and welcome back to another edition of 'Save it for the 'cast!' Kevin gets things started off with a handful of the goodies that he's been digging into lately — a couple of current UFO 50 favorites, along with a few pixel art platformers that have come up on the podcast in the past! John & Randall jump into the conversation after that, as we bounce all over the map, diving into a number of various video gaming discussions — including a little more Return of the Obra Dinn chat, Kentucky Route Zero and the way games tackle other mediums, and much more...   Timestamps: UFO 50  -  00:00:45 ↳  Seaside Drive  -  00:01:19 ↳  Campanella 3  -  00:03:46 Shadow of the Ninja: Reborn -  00:05:30 Pepper Grinder  -  00:06:36 Nuclear Blaze  -  00:09:07 Return of the Obra Dinn  -  00:12:10   Thanks for taking the time to listen!  If you'd like to find us elsewhere on the Internet, you can find us at:

Welcome back to Pursuing Pixels, and welcome back to another edition of 'Save it for the 'cast!' First things first...the first ever Pursuing Pixels Community Jam is officially under way! After that, Kevin does his best to keep the intro short & sweet, as he quickly revisits a few things he's been playings — and in the process, totally forgets to mention that he & John also dive into his resolution game for this year, Return of the Obra Dinn. After that, John rattles off a whole bunch of the games that he's been booting up on his Steam Deck lately — which ends up leading us into a number of other discussions!   Timestamps: PP Community Jam  -  00:00:01:11 UFO 50  -  00:02:44 Swordship -  00:04:53 Kingdom: Call of Olympus  -  00:05:42 Return of the Obra Dinn  -  00:08:54   Thanks for taking the time to listen!  If you'd like to find us elsewhere on the Internet, you can find us at:

Music is undeniably a huge part of what makes video games special, both individually and on an industry-wide level. Not only is no gaming award show complete without a gong for the year's best soundtrack, but even the Proms have started acknowledging that video game scores have come a long way since the 8-bit days (without throwing any shade on chiptune, a legitimate genre in and of itself with some stone-cold classics). That's probably why, from huge AAAs to smaller indies, music can account for a significant chunk of any game's budget — and it's definitely worth the investment. For this episode, the Indieventure trio have pooled our vinyl collection to talk about some of our personal favourite indie game music highlights. I know you guys say you love long show notes but there's seriously no way I'm going to be able to list every track we talk about here — which is why we've put together [a YouTube playlist] that should cover everything instead! A quick overview, though, sees us talking about the music from games including Balatro, Bombrush Cyberfunk, Braid, Celeste, Crypt of the Necrodancer, Dear Esther, Death's Door, Dicey Dungeons, Disco Elysium, Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, Fields of Mistria, Firewatch, Hades, Hades II, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, Hollow Knight, Hotline Miami, Hypnospace Outlaw, Journey, Kentucky Route Zero, Monster Prom 2: Monster Camp, Minecraft, No Straight Roads, Paradise Killer, Pizza Tower, Pyre, Return of the Obra Dinn, Stardew Valley, A Tower Full of Cats, Trombone Champ, Undertale, Unravel, and We Happy Few. If you'd like to hear every track we discuss in this episode in its entirety, we've added them all to a convenient YouTube playlist that you can find here. During the course of this chat we also promise you a couple of specific links, so go here for Bombrush Cyberfunk soundtrack memes, and here for one of the Ace Attorney x Danganronpa musical mashup channels on YouTube that Rebecca (and now Rachel too) is so very fond of.   Finally, as ever, are our current hyperfixations! Rebecca has discovered an accidentally awesome double-bill of horror novels with a timely social message in Chuck Tingle's Bury Your Gays and Grady Hendrix's The Final Girl Support Group; Liam's been having a whimsical time in recently-released indie platformer The Plucky Squire; and Rachel is having a moment with girly pop in general, and Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter in particular, thanks to the recent VMAs award show.   Our music, meanwhile, was written and performed by Ollie Newbury! Find him on Instagram at @newbsmusic. Meanwhile, you can find us at indieventurepodcast.co.uk or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Esta semana Edu termina de enamorarse de Undertale, continúa su camino por los Final Fantasy pendientes con el 3, prueba otros Obra Dinn con The Case of the Golden Idol, se caga de risa con Vale en Sam and Max Season 3 y evalúa seriamente su estadía en Turquía en FM. Seba por su parte no para de mirar escotes y culos en Sniper Ghost Warrior 3. Luego de un lanzamiento local, entramos a las noticias con algunos anuncios de juegos que se vienen, incluyendo un nuevo juego de Valve que casi nadie jugó, hacemos un repaso muy subjetivo de la Nintendo Direct de esta semana, te contamos los juegos gratis de PS Plus de septiembre, y nos burlamos de las creaciones de la gente en el editor de personaje del Inzoi.

We're talking everything graphics in games! What's the purpose of a game's graphics, and which do we like most? We analyze the technological leaps, art styles, and gameplay experiences only possible due to certain types of visuals. Guest co-host, our good friend Andy! 0:00 - Our first guest! Welcome Andy, AKA @Dractactics. How Zac and Andy know each other, their early shared games. Halo, Morrowind, Mass Effect. The Bethesda/BioWare Venn diagram. 11:40 - Graphics, the "video" in video game. What's the current value of visuals in games? The earliest graphics: teletype, oscilloscope, ASCII. 19:30 - Drawing a parallel between game graphics and other art forms, like film or fine art. The interplay between realism/representational art and more creative graphical styles. 31:07 - When graphics were the appeal of arcade games, then home console technology outpaced arcades in late 90s/early 00s. PS2 being a sweet spot "Goldilocks" of just the right amount of graphical power. Mister Mosquito, Katamari Damacy. 40:43 - Graphics allowing storytelling and worldbuilding. Closing the gap between creator intent and player experience. Uncharted, Grand Theft Auto, The Last of Us. 48:26 - The uncanny valley: making characters that feel real, or missing the mark. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Detroit: Become Human. 54:02 - Graphics in games of various budgets. Console vs. handheld, AAA vs. indie. Wider variety starting in the Xbox 360 era. Similar phenomenon in film/TV. The hand-drawn art style in Cuphead. 1:02:37 - Gaming experiences only available with graphics: Spatial puzzle games like Portal, Viewfinder, Superliminal. Sports games. Virtual "traveling" or exploring physical spaces: Assassin's Creed, BioShock, Subnautica, Uncharted, DOOM & DOOM "VFR." 1:13:00 - Next developments in graphics: raytracing, reflections, lighting. The smaller generational leaps of today compared to yesteryear. Cyberpunk 2077. FFVII Remake vs. Rebirth. Alan Wake 2. 1:26:34 - When graphical limitations work in favor of game design or innovation. Superman 64 (sarcasm). The fog in Silent Hill. Jumping Flash. 1:35:27 - Lofi art styles. Silent Hill 3. Shadow of the Colossus. Penny's Big Breakaway. Return of the Obra Dinn. 1:41:04 - What do WE value in graphics? Love for PS1 coziness and modern graphics alike. Go hug a game developer!

From the first time I saw a screenshot of The Case of the Golden Idol, by Color Gray Games, I was struck by these caricaturish portraits and knew I'd have to follow up on it someday.

On this episode of Random Encounter, we're looking at a game-of-the-year contender and the latest from one of the industry's most visionary indie devs. First up, Izzy is here to chat about Dragon's Dogma 2. The sequel to Capcom's cult-classic Dragon's Dogma, DD2 is the true realization of many of the ahead-of-their-time gameplay mechanics of its predecessor. However, this positive fanfare has recently been overshadowed by the controversy of predatory microtransactions included in this full-price game. Do these money-grubbing measures really impact players' overall enjoyment of the title?Then, Tim is here to chat about Lucas Pope's latest game, Mars After Midnight. Known for his indie classics Papers, Please and Return of the Obra Dinn, Pope has moved from consoles and PC over to the crank-enhanced handheld known as the Playdate. Does the tiny screen and simplified gameplay hurt MaM, or do the limitations inspire brilliance?Featuring: Jono Logan, Izzy Parsons, and Tim Rattray; Edited by Jono LoganGet in Touch:RPGFan.comRPGFan ShopEmail us: podcast@rpgfan.comTwitter: @rpgfancomInstagram: @rpgfancomFacebook: rpgfancomTwitch: rpgfancomThis Episode's Related Links:Dragon's Dogma 2 ReviewDragon's Dogma ReviewDragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen ReviewMars After Midnight ReviewReturn of the Obra Dinn Review

While Paula has stuck to a couple of longer-term adventures, this week Josh has been completing a bunch of shorter games and demos, while dipping a toe into the zombie apocalypse of the old west. Then it's Game of the Month time again the discussion turns to Return of the Obra Dinn, which is ultimately a chance to raise Paula's interest in playing it for the first time. Although, not before Josh attempts to confuse and bemuse when he throws up what could be a difficult game to guess in the guessing game… but is it really?

Then Matt gives his thoughts on the demo for Perfect Tides: Station to Station, the highly anticipated sequel to hit game Perfect Tides. Then Seoirse reviews two short games including psychological mystery game Looking Up I see Only a Ceiling and game about the Holocaust The Light in the Darkness.

In Episode 8 of Indieventure, we re-introduce an old favourite concept of ours from days gone by: the Indieventure Vault, an eclectic mind-palace of our own construction where we store the very best indie games, blending personal favourites with undeniable classics. Previous inductees — which we take the time to re-induct, since this Vault is completely legally distinct from any other indie game Vaults you might be thinking about — are two all-time favourite indie games from each of us. Rebecca carefully places Monster Prom and Firewatch on a commemorative shelf, Rachel chucks Kentucky Route Zero and Return of the Obra Dinn in the same vague direction, and Liam drop-kicks Hypnospace Outlaw and Paradise Killer into a hole in the ground, but like, respectfully. Everyone's very on-form. Then it's time to introduce some new games to the collection, and this time we've each selected one indie game that we all feel is just far too important to omit. For Liam, that's just got to be Stardew Valley; Rachel makes a compelling case for the enduring appeal of Disco Elysium; and Rebecca uses science (after a fashion) to conclude that Hades really needs to be there too. And, not least of all because 10 vaulted games is a nice round number to start off with, we also put Dredge on a special shelf of its own to indicate that it was our very first Indieventure Game of the Year in 2023. Hyperfixations this week see Rachel still obsessed with The Traitors: Series 2, Rebecca still obsessed with Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney, and Liam reading Masters of Doom by David Kushner like a proper adult.

We sit down with our newest co-host, writer/developer Rob Dubbin, to each count down our Top 5 games of 2023, alongside picks from previous show guests and our listeners. Happy New Year!

My guest today is the American designer of two of the most highly regarded experimental games yet made. He grew up in Virginia, where his interest in hobbyist robotics led him to study mechanical engineering at Virginia State University. At that time he started designing mods for Quake, which eventually led to a job at Naughty Dog where he worked on the first two games in the Uncharted series. In 2009 he left the studio and moved with his wife to Japan. It was while travelling abroad that my guest had the idea for a game involving a passport inspector. The result, Papers, Please, sold millions of copies and won several awards, including the grand prize at the Independent Game Festival. His next game, 2018's The Return of the Obra Dinn, cast players as an insurance adjustor for the East India Company trying to piece together the events that led to the destruction of one of its merchant ships and the crew's deaths. In a poll of industry experts for GQ magazine the game was named one of the greatest yet made. Thank you for listening to My Perfect Console.
