Good news! They included this one in the horror anthology!

The entire subtext of my show.

Thinking it might be time to form a new ttrpg game group.

The Ghoulcade will rise from the grave 🪦 5 episodes. Retro horrors. Metal crossovers. Sea monsters. And...The Simpsons. Are you brave enough?

This week I talk about my time with the games of The Evil Dead franchise: open.spotify.com/episode/1Lxc...

Submitted this as a splash page for a horror anthology comic. Fingers crossed it gets published.

But it's so worth it to answer these. And, of course, listen to the Retrolympics.

So, Metroid: Zero Missions is fun! That's all, that's the... post? Bleet? Message? Whatever this is.

As someone with four cats, it is a daily circus, but I love them all.

Word on the street is that the next part of the FFVII remake series is just 65 hours of Cloud activating Knights of The Round

Little bit late but new episode dropped: open.spotify.com/episode/1L9K...

NEW EPISODE - Before VI, before X, Final Fantasy IV set the stage. @djstormageddon.com and I revisit the classic SNES RPG that redefined the series. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

Wow! I guess I should thank @steampowered.com for the re-release of #forgottenrealmsdemonstone as that is now far and away the most listened-to episode of the show at 123 listens, quite the surge. Great for a show I released over 3 years ago! Link: open.spotify.com/episode/18Es...

Natsume Atari has filed a trademark for Shatterhand in Japan: chizai-watch.com/t/2025097921 Shatterhand is a 2D action game originally released for NES. The trademark might suggest a remake or sequel is in the works, a la Shadow of the Ninja Reborn or Pocky & Rocky Reshrined.

From time to time I still think about that idea I had a few years ago for a survival horror game where a smokejumper lands in the middle of a forest wildfire only to discover the fire is merely a symptom of some kind of eldritch evil invasion.

Not gonna lie, the UFO50 game "Grimstone" sure ticks a lot of my boxes.

I think I finally have the name of the beat 'em up I could never remember. I think it's Mystic Warriors: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GuO...

If I haven't said it before, The Thaumaturge is rocking big Shadow Hearts energy. Play it.

Tom Clancy’s Lolita

This week I talk about my short time with the games of Level-5: open.spotify.com/episode/0ROY...

So… been sitting on this a while. This is my first official comics debut. It’s local to where I live, but here it is! (A teaser anyway.) So, putting it out there, I draw and write too, not just talk games. I am available for commission.

Hey all. Sorry for the no upload this week. I do have the script written, but with work and other obligations I ran out of recording time. It will be up next week.

@williamsrd.bsky.social I, too, would love a Ravenloft survival horror game. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtNY...

Sometimes, for no reason, I'll just suddenly remember the Budd Dwyer incident happened. And as a kid in PA, I got to hear it live on the radio - until stations cut off the feed. Just comes to mind for no reason.

This is pretty much how I see all collectable card game rules.

More normal length episode this week, and me being back to my more brash form. Time to talk about my time with and opinions on Amnesia and Outlast: open.spotify.com/episode/05RD...

Hey, dear listeners! I don't ask much or often, and many of you have already done this and I deeply appreciate, but if anyone hasn't given Deleted Saves a rate and/or review on your listening format of choice and would like to, it would be greatly appreciated.

UFO 50: the game where I play a guessing game trying to see if I can identify which two to three games inspired each minigame. That's my quick review of the title now that I'm able to get around to it.

This hit a little close to home.

I think I need to start a TTRPG group for the life-stable 40+ crowd that doesn't have all the bad habits of the actual 40+ grognards.

The last month has been an accidental Summer of D&D based- and inspired-games. Just fired up the remasters of Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 1 & 2. And boy howdy, did I have fun with them! It's 2001 and 2004 all over again, kids!

So, I am enjoying Solasta quite a bit more than Baldur's Gate 3, but BG3 has its good points, mostly in the overarching story and structure so far of act 1 and its adventures. Solasta just feels more D&D-like, like an actual game, not a melodrama. But I will be reviewing both, in time.

I take requests to review games, too! If you would like to join and have a title you think I should work my magic on, then you will get to hear episodes like this (no pressure, of course): www.patreon.com/posts/twelve...

I feel this man and I could be friends. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCiL...

This week I talk at length about a lot of games in the brawler genre I have played. Micro reviews, if you will: open.spotify.com/episode/5MtX...

I have found the "we have Baldur's Gate 3 at home" game. That game is Solasta: Crown of the Magister. If you loved BG3, or Divinity Original Sin I and II, get it.

For just a buck, you too can hear my occasional bonus thoughts on games I don't post to my main feed: www.patreon.com/posts/balatr...

Man, I have done so much drawing in the past 5 weeks. Completed the pencils/story on a 24-page indie comic my inker has now. Spending this week panic completing (pencils/story) a 6 page mini-story for an anthology. I haven't done this much art outside of work in a long time.

This week I reminisce about Koudelka and the Shadow Hearts series: open.spotify.com/episode/08Uf...

See? I told y'all.

So two years since its debut and an entire Internet full of content and think pieces about it, I started Baldur’s Gate 3. I’m really trying to hold my tongue on this but even in this early stage of the game I have thoughts. Probably much of which no one will like once it’s time for me to tackle it.

Side Quests is back and this episode's host is professor and vigilante crime fighter, @fmonk.bsky.social! The game he is talking about today is Nightshade (1992) by Beam Software and Ultra Games. funandgames.libsyn.com/side-quests-...

This week I talk about Sierra games: open.spotify.com/episode/0uSO...

This coming Wednesday I'll be talking a lot more wholesome and cozy topic: the Sierra games catalog and it's influence on me as a player. See y'all then.

Man, I feel like I need to talk about those old Worlds of Power books from the 90s. I know I read most of them.

Most RPG designers clearly underestimate how much players set shit on fire. I don't care how many cool weapons you offer from stone axes to full-auto plasma guns, if it lacks stats/effects of a flaming bottle of fuel, you have failed. Also, any special burn/fire rules need to be super-easy to find.
