284: Button City
from The Short Game Hosted by The Short Game
Button City is a cute (you might even say wholesome) adventure game about an adorable fox and his animal friends in a dayglow 90’s nostalgia infused world, trying to protect their local arcade from an uncaring real estate developer. Unfortunately, it’s also… not very good. Nate and I had a chat about what this promising game got right, and why it ultimately failed to move us. We also have a chat about the Wholesome Direct where this game was featured heavily, and wrap up with a fun What’s Making Us Happy This Week segment.
