Hey There Cubies! This week we are diving into Wu Chang Fallen Feathers and other souls like games. These games are everywhere and there are so many different varieties of them out there. But they just might not be for everyone and we have some thoughts on that. Then we take a deep dive into the world of emulators and video conservation. There are so many games out there that you just cannot get y...

Hey there Cubies! This week we are chatting about the biggest game to hit the Switch 2 so far. That is Donkey Kong Bananza! This game is just crazy. You can truly destroy the entire world. The humor is great, the polish is phenomenal. It is such a crazy year in gaming when Clair Obscur is most likely going to go up against Donkey Kong for game of the year. But this game is really a treat to explor...

Hey there Cubies! This week we are diving into probably the oldest genre when it comes to games, tabletop or otherwise. That is strategy tactics style games.

We dive into a couple that have really caught our attention recen...

It always gets weird and interesting in these episodes! ---------------...

Hey there Cubies! We started to chat about this game last week, but now we both have had some time with this game and it is very surprising.

Hey there Cubies! We are digging into our backlog with this one. It's one of the Final Fantasy games that we both fell off of in the past and we really want to go through all of the Final Fantasy games so we felt that this would be a good starting point. Final Fantasy 13 is a very polarizing game, it has its highs and its lows and we explore it all in this weeks episode! ----------------- Host...

Hey there Cubies! This week we are diving into the world of platformers. One of the oldest gaming genres out there that has seen the most growth and evolution over the last 40+ years. We have seen it grow and genre bend, evolving with gamers based on their expectations.

Hey there Cubies! While turn based combat has not gone anywhere, it really did feel that it was begining to be left behind. Especially when you look at some of the bug hitters like Final Fantasy even changing the direction of their combat systems. But games like Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 have really shown us how turn based combat can be evolved. So, this week we take a look back at the history o...

Hey there Cubies! This week we have a little update of what we are playing. From Promise Mascot Agency, to Gears 5 we have a lot to talk about. But the main conversation for this week is the concept of replaying games. Not just remakes/remasters but just replaying games from our past and is that something that motivates our choices when it comes to picking what to play next. Do we want to see the...

Hello Cubies! This week we have a couple great titles for you. Blue Prince is a puzzle roguelike where you build the mansion room by room as you explore it. The main goal is to find the hidden 46th room. The puzzles are very involved and the story that gets slowly unraveled to you is captivating. And then we have South Of Midnight. A game that uses stories and folklore of the south to tell a rich...

Check out IBS wherever you. get podcasts! It's crazy that a bee kills itself with its sting. Who would you sting? Bees, the ultimate edgers. What other animals die from their defense mechanisms. Exploding ants?!? 7 years till asteroid. It is massive compared to what has hit us before. Could hit the moon. Other dooms day stuff.

Hey there Cubies! We have an interesting one for you all this week. It feels like the calm before the storm for sure. After tackling a big game resently it has been nice just cruising through some smaller titles, or catching up with ones we havent gotten too just yet. Like, Chris hopping on Dragon Age: Veilguard. A game that defineatly does not deserve the negative press that it got. And Journey i...

Hey there Cubies! So, in celebration of Pokemon day and all the crazy things announced we are diving back into the world of Pokemon. Z-A looks like an interesting evolution into the franchise and it could breath new life into it. It being in just one town is a little strange and the choice to include Tepig in the lineup is weird, but there must be a reason for it. We also got the announcement for...

Hey there Cubies! Unity is back in the conversation this week. Surprisingly their stock is on the ride once again. Although it is still a pale comparison to what it was in 2021. So, why the change? Well they have a new string of investors backing their endeavors into AI with Unity MUSE. A new tool that will allow users to basically make games using AI. Generate code, sprites, behaviors and more. B...
