NEW VIDEO: On the Flyover Culture SEASON FINALE, veteran game designer Cole Wehrle shares invaluable insight on how he makes games.
We then ignore most of that good advice for a head-to-head game design competition. It gets weird.

🎃 NEW VIDEO! For this pseudo-Halloween special, we're dressing up suburban Atlanta as rural Indiana and ranking some of the most notorious fake pop culture towns.
This is much more chill than the last episode, so pop it on while you prepare your Hot Lorax costume

Got tickets to one of those AMC mystery screenings on the 6th. Hoping it’s The Marvels! Very strong possibility it’s also some heinous faith-based thing, but hey I’m down to clown

Got my tonsils removed today. Feeling alright, just a bit of pain.
Goals for the week: Finish FF16, catch up on comics, finish my Ben Percy book, and then mainline Spider-Man 2 until I feel human again
