    Episode 103: Demon's Crest Jun 25, 2015
    Show notes

    Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross blaze through Demon's Crest.

    The Summer of SNES continues with Demon's Crest, a neglected entry in a neglected series. It takes non-standard platforming mechanics, and spreads them across a non-linear story rich with bosses and evocative gothic imagery. Be sure to grab this one on Virtual Console.

    Episode 102: Harvest Moon / SimCity Jun 11, 2015
    Show notes

    Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross manage to talk about Harvest Moon and SimCity (the SNES versions of both).

    This Split EP is dedicated to two SNES games that take it a little bit slow. Both Harvest Moon and SimCity ask the player to make decisions about how to use limited resources like time and money in order to get some kind of return. Sometimes that's a bountiful turnip harvest, and sometimes that's a happy populace. While both series would go on to grow and change, these SNES versions are the simplest distillation of what they are trying to accomplish.

    Episode 101: Katamari Damacy May 27, 2015
    Show notes

    Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross heap praise on Katamari Damacy.

    It's simultaneously a singular expression, and one of the most eclectic games we've covered for the show. Katamari Damacy is an extremely simple game with one goal: to instill as much joy in you as possible. And it works.

    Episode 100: Super Metroid May 13, 2015
    Show notes

    Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross gush about Super Metroid in this centennial episode of Watch Out for Fireballs!

    "Break Glass in Case of Emergency". There's a whole category of game that Gary and I avoid playing for the show. They're in the upper echelon. They're top tier. If we brought them out regularly, everything else would feel like a chore.

    But sometimes it's a special occasion, and you have to bring out the fine china. And Super Metroid is some fine, fine China. On one hand, it's an expansion and elaboration on the stuff that made Metroid 1 and 2 unique. On the other, it's a foundational text that cemented a whole new genre in place. Listen, as we break the glass and talk about one of the best games of all time.

    But first, get hyped by watching this trailer, created for us by Allison Baker: www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGM20MejGGg

    Episode 99: Amnesia: The Dark Descent Apr 30, 2015
    Show notes

    Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross hide in a corner while Amnesia: The Dark Descent happens.

    This game won our Spring Survival Horror poll, and for good reason. Frictional mastered the "first person, pursuit-based exploration horror" genre, and created a game that's so scary that a lot of people can't even play it. Listen in, especially if you're one of those people.
