Thank you everyone for the new follows this week! If you’re new to Pew Pew Bang, we’re a video game podcast with slumber party vibes. Which means sometimes producer Leo has to edit us saying “Pokemon C**k Version” twenty times an episode.
Thanks to Leo's hard work producing Pew Pew Bang, no innocent child will ever be able to figure out what's being discussed as Kelsey shows off her physical ROM Hack collection. Watch the full GBA slumber party retrospective here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=mB7T...

These companies are soulless. It deeply enrages me to see all these brilliant writers get let go and a site as wonderful as Polygon get sold to a literal slop house “content” mill. I’m so sorry to all that were affected.

✨ New Video! ✨

Blue Prince certainly doesn’t seem to be for everybody, but it sure is for me.

Here’s my review: youtu.be/W-IO4R8jxds

I hope it manages to capture the feeling of playing the game in some way. 😘

It's not quite Psychonauts' 20th anniversary. That's tomorrow!

We have tons of fun stuff to share next week in order to celebrate that psychonautical milestone but last night we *did* have a party with an amazing spread. Take a look at this cake! Marvel at these macaroons! It was a dang good time.

“Players derive joy from communicating with the devs through play” is an incredible bit of wisdom that’s just available here on this website for free.
but if you take either of those approaches - that players derive joy from communicating with the devs through play, whether it's beating their challenges or being led carefully through them - then it really highlights why a lot of gen AI in the game experience is just undesirable
