GameEngineStart Podcast - The Most Edinburgh Cat

GameEngineStart Podcast

As summer approaches, one of us prepares for months of MMO gameplay and the other does what he always does. Plays weird indie games.

NOTE - We talk about minor spoilers from Lorelei and the Laser Eyes, we are explicit when we are about to start, and there is a timestamp in the podcast description.

We Played...

• We both played XDefiant, and had a surprisingly long conversation about the current state of the FPS genre.
• Euan plays a pile of puzzlers with The Excavation of Hobs Barrow and Lorelei and the Laser Eyes.
• Calum plays the latest Playstation PC port Ghosts of Tsushima.
