    Welcome to Pixel x Pixel episode 86, where we’re rebranding to a breakfast and Aussie artist podcast (let’s say that’s a belated April Fool’s, ha)! In all seriousness, Anne has been too busy with secret freelance projects to have much new to discuss, so you get to hear all about her current favorite oatmeal recipe. Marcus hasn’t written anything recently, but that’s okay, because it’s time to celebrate the 100th Community Game-Along theme! And while both haven’t had much time to game, they’ve been making up for it with new movies and tv shows.

    Pixel x Pixel Special: Garage

    Marcus and Anne sit down to discuss all things Garage: Bad Dream Adventure, breaking their previous streak of only doing spoiler casts of visual novels! This obscure cult favorite deserved more than a short, spoiler-free discussion on the regular podcast, so the pair take a deep dive into this weird and wacky game, discussing everything from gender dynamics to ego and id. As with all our spoiler special episodes, the first half of the podcast is spoiler-free and includes background information about the game as well as our general impressions. After a clearly-marked break, we dive into our full spoiler-filled thoughts, so stick around until then if you’ve played through the game!
