A small and fascinating puzzle game gets us through a rough month
this week as we talk about score chasing, the tone of indie games
in aesthetics vs mechanics vs story, our feelings about short
games, and more. This was a pretty solid little game!

We dig into Square’s attempt at survival horror as they hand
Parasite Eve over to one of the creators of Resident Evil who
proceeds to make a police procedural about being the bioweapon
cops out on the streets. It’s very funny, but mostly pretty good?
Glad we got around to this one.

ecosystems.
