Cart Creeps
by Ryan, Jay, Gabe, and Keif
Cart Creeps is a retro gaming podcast that digs up old cartridges to see how they really play once the nostalgia wears off.Each month, one retro game is pulled at random and examined through the act of playing it — not just remembering it. We focus on how these games feel in your hands today: their movement, pacing, difficulty, atmosphere, and the small design decisions that either hold together or start to show their seams.There are no scores and no obligation to finish, just honest discussion about what survives the replay and what doesn’t.Retro games aren’t dead. They’re just waiting for input.Follow Cart Creeps:https://www.instagram.com/cart_creeps/
