Budget Bits

Where do we even start with this episode? Justin's feelings on furries? The reading of a review from Tyler's pitch? Marcus's absolute bomb of a pitch that Lakes loved? Lakes' love for his own game submission? We aren't entirely sure, but you can be sure that there's a lot of talk about upright, bipedal animals. Part 1: Individual ratings and reviews of Dylan's game-winning submission, "Dust: An El...

Well, friends, it's been a really good run. Today's episode is without a doubt our diciest one yet, which could very well be our last. Why, you might ask? We shamelessly plug our NEW website (www.budgetbitspodcast.com) multiple times. Lady Luck was definitely with our Budget Bits Bracket Brawl winner, "Dicey Dungeons," which we take some time to review. Dylan, Justin, and Tyler not only break Marc...

Monday, Monday, Monday! Live on pay-per-view, for one night only- the annual Budget Bits Bracket Brawl is on! Two matches! Two different things! In the first match, we have eight games duking it out to become the next game we play! Who will win in this absolute banger of a match?! In the second match, we have a review of Marcus's game-winning submission, "Fling to the Finish"! Purchase the pay-per...

Imagine exploring the endless beauty and majesty of the galaxy with your faithful, fearless crew. Along the way, your ship's hull is damaged and on the verge of being destroyed. Will you be able to repair the hull to the best of your ability? Will your hull make it the rest of the your exploration? The Budget Boys can't really say too much because their hulls got annihilated. Part 1: The crew revi...

We decided to hold the pizza on this one because our local pizza guy, Justin, was away during our recording. So, Dylan, Marcus, and Tyler do some catching up on the games they're playing and how life's treating them. There's also an abundance of Kingdom Hearts references, which we're not sorry about.

Looking at the episode title and knowing that we recently played the survival co-op horror game, "Devour," you could probably guess which co-host this autobiography is about. Speaking of "Devour," we spend a great deal of this episode talking about the wonderful experience that three-fourths of the crew had playing this game. Because it's fall-time, we think you should grab a nice cup of coffee or...

Buddy Beater (Episode 17) Listen, y'all. There's so much that happened in this episode, and we have no idea how to accurately describe it. Between Dylan and Tyler bringing in new things to our segments, Justin being an MVP, and Marcus being a Debbie Downer and talking about beating buddies, how do you describe the conglomerate that is this episode? The only constant this episode offers is the fact...

Whether if you're into furries or not, this episode's got 'em. Well, partly, only because we discuss Gunfire Reborn where there's animals with guns and stuff. We also discuss other things like Marcus's "last hoorah" before he turned 30, Dylan's lovely feet, and Tyler's research on hot and cold showers. Justin also goes down a well ten minutes prior to us recording this episode which we were all im...

You ever have any regrets in life? Like the kind of regrets that involve bad game mechanics, directionless gameplay, and endless cigarette smoking? Three-fourths of the Budget Bits crew may or may not have had some regret of this caliber. It's OK, though, because Marcus gave the crew a brief Japanese lesson that was fun and awe-inspiring. Today's episode: Part 1: Individual ratings and reviews of...

Y'all, 25 days without recording an episode is too long for us. All of our pent-up energy and excitement of hearing each other's voices came out in a variety of ways. Between singing, talking about props, preaching about Jesus, and all the rockets blasting off, things got really out of hand. We'd say we're sorry, but we're really not. The only two things you need to know is the following: (1) This...

Friends, we weren't able to record a new episode, but fret not! Instead, we bring you some of our best, worst, and most awkward bits from our personal budget. Enjoy!

Don't let the episode title fool you. Between figuring out online servers, losing our ever-loving minds, and salty bananas, this recording was a much-needed therapy session for us. Did we make it out OK, though? You can be the judge of that. By the way, what did you have for dinner? Speaking of therapy, we hope you find today's episode somewhat therapeutic... in that it makes you laugh! Part 1: In...

Folks, this episode got us good. It's by far the realest we've ever gotten, but only for so long. We got in our feelings (quack). We blinked a lot (quack). We continued to make the weirdest and most awkward segues (QUACK). And we had fun while doing it (QUACK QUACK). SPEAKING OF fun, we had a great deal of fun recording this episode. We think you'll enjoy listening to it! Part 1: The Budget Bits c...

Pop-quiz! Can you spot all the puns and segues in this episode? There's quite a bit. Hey! Speaking of "quite a bit," there's quite a bit of discussion in today's episode that's broken up into two parts (insert rimshot here)! In part one, the Budget Bits crew rates and recaps their playthrough of Unspottable . In part two, Dylan, Marcus, and Tyler make their pitches to Justin for judging. While we'...

We've made it, y'all. Well, actually, YOU made it. You've made it to the tenth installment of Budget Bits! What better reward could you get than the entire Budget Bits crew gathering together and recording in-person? Maybe it's a punishment instead of a reward- we're not entirely sure ourselves. We'll just edit whatever you say in post. SHEESH! Along with our in-person recording, did we also menti...

Have you ever had Mrs. Duffles' famous tortellini? You should grab yourself a plate while the Budget Bits crew goes in on their playthrough of "The Slormancer". If you happen to notice some extra "slormy" stuff on your pasta, don't worry. We're still in the early access phase of whether we should keep the slorm around. Today's episode is broken down into two different parts. Part one will consist...

We're starting to notice a trend. In the last episode, we had a very pizza-centric theme with two of the three game pitches. In today's episode, we're feeling pretty rogue-like. In fact, we're feeling SO rogue-like that we bet you'll end up saying, "Say no more! I think I got the picture, guys." We could be wrong, though. Today's episode is broken down into three parts: Part 1- The Budget Bits cre...

The episode title has nothing to do with the Budget Bits crew's discussion on their playthrough of the horror game 'Pacify,' but you'll understand why we're all about the zaa in due time. In the meantime, let's talk about spooks and dunking- specifically on Marcus. We had a spooky ol' time playing through the jumpscares that Pacify offered, but it probably would have been WAY scarier if Marcus did...

Listen. The Budget Bits crew loves a good, challenging game to play, especially when it involves them playing together. More specifically, we're real big fans of super high-skilled games like Pummel Party. I mean, how much skill does it take to royally screw your friends over as they're close to the finish line, only for them to have to start over again? A lot. How much skill is required to push t...

Can we paint a scenario for you? It's Halloween night. You're with your friends in your favorite costume- candy bucket in hand, excitement in your heart, and glee in your eyes at the sweet delights you're about to consume. You hit your first house and you get your favorite candy. Same thing happens at the next house. And the next. You're biting at the bit for what's next. You get to your fourth ho...

It's been a hot minute since our last recording, but we're sad to say that there is no episode 4 today. There is no discussion on "There is No Game," nor any new submissions pitched to Dylan for judging. Nope, not at all. Did we also mention there's absolutely no salt from one particular host? Sorry, y'all. We'll try thinking out of the box more. Follow, like, share, and subscribe to Budget Bits o...

Apparently, we all decided to open the episode with flossing, but Tyler went vintage with the ol' "towel floss between the legs". We also decided that our experience with Heave Ho was one to remember, and so were the submissions that Dylan, Marcus, and Tyler made to Justin. Speaking of floss, can it clean up loads of salt? Because there was a lot of that in this episode.

The title has nothing to do with what you're about to listen to, but Dylan declared that this is the episode's title (There's context, we promise). However, now that we think about it, you'll get a lot of "gains" from the three parts that the episode's broken into. Part 1: Discussion on Dylan's game-winning submission of "Katana Zero". Part 2: Tyler, Justin, and Marcus make their game pitches to D...

Welcome to Budget Bits! Join hosts Dylan, Justin, Marcus, and Tyler as they kick off the pilot episode of Budget Bits! Having Marcus as the first judge, listen in as Dylan, Justin, and Tyler make pitches on their game choices! Who will emerge victorious?!
