This week, we’re excited to welcome the fantastic Jared Petty from Limited Run Games to our show. We dive into the quirky world of Tomba! Special Edition, exploring the mysteries of the pink-haired wild child and his penchant for biting pigs. Jared provides some intriguing insights into this eccentric game.
Additionally, Jada shares her impressive experience with No Man’s Sky in VR, showcasing how much Hello Games has evolved the game since its initial release. On a somber note, we discuss Meta’s recent decision to close Ready At Dawn, the studio behind notable PlayStation titles like the ambitious The Order 1886 and PSP classics such as God of War: Chains of Olympus and Daxter.
We also address the recent wave of layoffs at Bungie amid ongoing restructuring, raising concerns about the unrealistic expectations and unsustainable practices within the gaming industry. However, there’s a silver lining as Krafton, known for PUBG and The Callisto Protocol, has acquired Tango Gameworks and the rights to Hi-Fi Rush, hinting that we might see more from this rhythm-based hack-and-slash game in the future.
