Episode 65 - They Hated Me Because I Secreted Foam

This week, we’re running through a whole lot of games, since Robin was too busy sleeping on Willa’s couch to record last week. First, we cover the most anticipated game of all: Foamstars. Then a demo for a little game called Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth came out, and both of our hosts attended an exciting preview recently, but only one did so well she broke the game. We end with a whole lot of news, only some of which is about how fucked the games industry is!

(I also feel compelled to include an extra explicit content warning here for just so, so much talk about bodily fluids in the first five minutes.)
