We thought our podcast art could do with a little livening up.

So we commissioned @couchmochi.bsky.social to create a new piece of podcast art and it’s safe to say that she smashed it!

Thanks for creating this for us Tosh!

Thanks to the publishers of Platypus Reclayed, who sent us over a press pack, we had the chance to make one of the ships from the game.

We think Stuart did a pretty great job!

A small piece of collage art I’m going to mail one of my friends. Could be better, but overall happy with how it turned out!

Quick thoughts on games I’ve beaten #1

Hyper Light Drifter:
The soundtrack was the reason I ended up playing this and man was it impactful. It contains good puzzles and engaging combat, but the standout element is the atmosphere.

Over the last week, I've finished two games by @terrycavanaghgames.com. Both are miracles of minimalist design that attack your brain and mold it in their image. My organs are pixelated hexagons and triangles, and I'm doing great! If you haven't given these a spin yet, you should change that!
