254: Kentucky Route Zero - Act V 1:01:21

1:01:21

This is the final part of the KRZ community playthrough, looking at the excellent interlude Un Pueblo de Nada, the gorgeous sun-soaked village of Act V, and the optional epilogue, Death of the Hired Man.

253: Blue Prince, Promise Mascot Agency 39:59

15 days ago39:59

39:59

Promise Mascot Agency is a pocket-sized open world like no other. Playing a disgraced Yakuza consigned to a dying former mining town, it's part open-world collectathon, part management sim, and part visual novel. But none of that does justice to game's truly bizarre charm, or the unrestrained chaos and humour that make it ones of the best indie games of the year so far. In the roundup: Clair Obscur, South of Midnight, Blue Prince, Drop Duchy, and more. Join the Patreon: http://patreon.com/gaminginthewild.

250: Kentucky Route Zero - Act IV 1:05:30

6 weeks ago1:05:30

1:05:30

Act IV of KRZ takes the form of an epic river journey that feels like the centrepiece of the game. It's a voyage down the Echo River aboard the Mucky Mammoth, with the player no longer behind the wheel. We drift between the various members of our ragtag group, deepening our understanding of Ezra, Will, Junebug & Johnny, Shannon, and the ailing Conway, who seems to be losing his grip on the world. As per this play along series, the pod is sprinkled with comments from patrons, pals, and listeners: thanks to Dovetail, Lenka, Zanem, Ray, Skogstokig, and Dave for chipping in. Y'all outdid yourselves in the act. You can join this playthrough (and future ones like it) at ⁠http://patreon.com/gaminginthewild⁠ . You also get 15 patron bonus episodes, an invite to the Discord community, and the warm feeling of knowing you're supporting me in making this podcast. I'm away from my home studio for a couple of weeks starting tomorrow, but there's some Gaming In The Wild scheduled for YouTube later this week: http://youtube.com/gaminginthewild . And I'll be posting on social media from the road: ⁠http://gaminginthewild.com⁠ . Thanks for listening, back soon!…

247: The Best of Steam Next Fest 30:52

9 weeks ago30:52

30:52

This week's episode takes a little breather from the KRZ playthrough as people catch up with Acts II & III. There's a good reason for that: Steam Next Fest happened last week, and a lot of people dived right into the ocean of demos. In fact, the GITW patron community played over 150 demos collectively then voted on their favourites. So this episode we have some honourable mentions, the community's top five, and then my own top five best of the fest. (You can watch the video version of the main segment here: https://youtu.be/nVfZDZIbq3A .) I also discuss the channel's recent little patron influx, and talk about trying to make podcasting and video-making into a part time job. If you're up for supporting me on that road, thank you so much — head here: https://www.patreon.com/gaminginthewild . And big thanks to boss tier patrons Shy Guy and Hollow, and new patrons Paolo, Rob, Gerudo, Bayleafu, Noah, Ethan, Dom, Brandon, Jeremy, and Toph. And all the veteran patrons too!

245: Kentucky Route Zero - Act I 55:01

11 weeks ago55:01

55:01

The Kentucky Route Zero deep-dive begins! To mark five years of GITW, we're going back to the game that started it all. The first episode looks at Act I of the game, and the first interlude 'Limits And Demonstrations'. This game is a breakthrough, a landmark, and a high water mark for video games as art. Its acts and interludes contain multitudes: digital art exhibits, interactive poetry, a fully staged play complete with audience, and a tangled web of scenes, characters, and histories. At its heart lies a story about people falling through the cracks of America – but it contains so much more than that. It's also a GITW community playthrough, with patrons of the podcast playing along and offering insights and questions that become part of the pod.

The pod's back with a review of lovely French indie game Caravan SandWitch. It's a mellow, low-key open world exploration game set on a dusty, post-industrial sci-fi planet. The game’s story and dialogue have problems, but driving your trusty yellow van around this gorgeous little world makes up for it. Also mentioned: Astro Bot, Ghost of Yotei, The Midnight Walk, Fear The Spotlight, Lego Horizon, Horizon Zero Dawn, Soul Reaver: Legacy of Kain, Switch 2, Annapurna Interactive.
