We dove deep into Pseudoregalia, which is certainly unlike any other Metroidvania I’ve played! Thanks for having me on, Dave!

(And hey, you can finally see me podcasting on video!)

My stream schedule this week will have some good variety 🎮

Tonight, it’s a cozy and chaotic hack n’ slash game called An Eternity Gone By! On Thursday, I’m playing Shotgun Cop Man, a hectic action-platformer where you shoot to jump! And finally, I’m finishing RE4 on Saturday!

I picked up Öoo this week after hearing a review on the @underplayedpod.bsky.social podcast and HOLY SHIT it’s good!

It’s the exact kind of clever, cosy puzzle-platformer I adore.

Highly recommended! And 20% off on Steam right now!

Also… the colours are to die for right?!

@kinmoku.bsky.social was the best! I had a great time chatting with them and then to top it off, they sent us a physical copy of One Night Stand that arrived late last week.

Thanks for the great episode, Lucy!
