Hijack A Host- SpongeBob The Cosmic Shake – Gaming Podcast Dec 09, 2025

Show notes

Gaming hosts Josh and Ace are kicking back this week as Ryan gets officially hijacked and thrown headfirst into the wacky, dimension-hopping madness of SpongeBob SquarePants: The Cosmic Shake! In this special Hijack a Host episode, we’re breaking down whether this bizarre, bubbly platformer is secretly one of the most joyful surprises in video games or just another trip to Bikini Bottom chaos.

From jellyfishing mayhem to wild alternate universes, we cover everything this game gets right, everything it absolutely does not, and why its Saturday-morning-cartoon energy might be exactly what the gaming world needs right now. If you love video games that go all-in on style, color, and pure nonsense, you’re in the right place. Plus, we talk about where The Cosmic Shake fits into today’s gaming landscape—and whether Ryan survived the glittery nightmare intact. Another can’t-miss episode of the Video Gamers Podcast!

Constance Review - Is This Truly Hollow Knight x Celeste? Nov 22, 2025

Show notes

"Every canvas is a journey all its own.” – Helen Frankenthaler Gaming host Ace dives deep into Constance, a hand-painted 2D Metroidvania that blends precise Celeste-like platforming with Hollow Knight-inspired exploration. We were provided a review key by the developers, but this is not a sponsored review all thoughts are honest and our own. Constance follows the journey of a paint-brush-wielding artist trapped in a decaying inner world shaped by her mental health. With striking hand-drawn visuals, fluid animation, tight movement mechanics, and emotional storytelling, Constance stands out as one of the most unique indie games of 2025.
