Buckle up because we’ve got a monster sized episode, but it’s packed full of goodness, so let’s get going!

The show kicks off with Bri Galgano and Aki on hand to welcome Nick Jefferson-Tame and Adam Mitchell of North Star Video Games to the show to chat all about their brand new upcoming spray paint simulator game, Spray Paint Simulator! We chat about the origins of the game, the fun tools and gameplay mechanics to keep you painting for hours on end, working with Whitethorn Games, getting on Game Pass, and tons more! Spray Paint Simulator is out NEXT WEEK, so wishlist it now!

After a quick intermission, it’s a PartyCast with Pernell Vaughan, Chris Taylor, Grant Henry, and Aki starting off with Dave K and Tim Ekkebus showing up later on! We spend nearly an hour chatting about everything from more Spray Paint Simulator to Monster Rancher fun to Hulk Hogan’s bulging eyes and fake hair on his stupid bandana. We know you’re bald, TERRY. Plus ice cream discussion, Tim’s son ending a shutout, and a big ol’ batch of reviews including some notes from Horror Acolyte!
