Episode 57 - Let's Play Totally Reliable Delivery Service w/ SneakyBox
Back in 2020, We're Five Games' Totally Reliable Delivery Service made a name for itself thanks to its wacky physics-based antics. Streamers gravitated towards its chaos, which only broadened its appeal that endures to this day. Following the acquisition of the title by Infogrames, we recruited SneakyBox to get to work on an update and some new DLC to give more content to those fans who stuck with the game all this time and entice new players to check it out. Joining me to dive into these updates and DLCs are SneakyBox's Vytautas Ruzgus (producer), Augustas Vachauzas (game designer), and Donatas Vaiciulis (lead developer).

Episode 53 - Let's Play Turok w/ Nightdive Studios
The fabled episode 53 is finally releaseable, and it's all about Turok, which has just been announced for physical formats and will be released later this year! I jumped at the opportunity to chat about Turok with the team at Nightdive because it's a truly seminal FPS that has endured for generations. Joining me to discuss are Nightdive's Eric Serio ( Senior Developer) and Grover Wimberly IV (Producer) to dive deep into all the bells and whistles that are included in the remaster, along with plenty of indulgent, nostalgic tangents.

Episode 57 - Let's Play Golden Tee Arcade Classics w/ Digital Eclipse
Golden Tee has been a staple of bars and arcades for decades, thanks to its inviting and intuitive trackball controls and pitch-perfect golf game feel. But how, you may ask, would you translate that to consoles that aren't equipped with a trackball? A great question that can only be answered by a couple of returning guests from Digital Eclipse who tackled this very question. Calvin Vu (producer) and Jason Cirillo (engineer and artist) walk me through the ins and outs of the title and the process of bringing a vast collection of Golden Tee titles to consoles while retaining what's made them beloved all this time.

Episode 56 - Let's Play Adventure of Samsara (w/ Ilex)
Atari's legendary title, Adventure, was the first of its kind and laid the groundwork for the future of game design. When Ilex, a small team in Brazil, showed Tower of Samsara to us for the first time, we were immediately captivated by its beautiful pixel art and animation and inspired by its mix of old and new gameplay hooks to create a unique metroidvania. Even more surprising was the opportunity to weave the classic Adventure into this sprawling epic, now titled Adventure of Samsara. We walk through the journey of the title from a failed Kickstarter to the impending release with Marcelo Rigon (CEO of Ilex, Creative Director, and Programmer), Gilerme Gaspar (Art Director at Ilex and 2D Artist), and Atari's resident Adventure Enthusiast, David Paige.

Episode 55 - The Past, Present, and Future of MobyGames (w/ Jim Leonard and Tracy Poff)
MobyGames has been THE gaming repository well before Atari's acquisition of it in 2022, and one that gaming professionals and consumers alike are constantly hitting up. As a big fan myself, it was a pleasure to bring on Jim Leanard, co-founder of MobyGames, and Tracy Poff, current developer and long-time contributor. We talk through the website's founding, its decades-long journey to now, and what's currently happening behind the scenes under Atari's stewardship.
