Indie Game Ravers

Ben and Aadil are joined by Issac Kean a co-founder of This Next Act, the comedy podcast on the out of lives network. We dig deep to talk about how awful the internet is after the Ooblets developers Glumberland’s exclusivity announcement. Ben chats a few of the games he is flitting between and Issac talks Spider-Man for PS4 and PS2 and the Tetris style puzzler 2048 Blocks. Aadil and Issac drink a selection of beers from Next Level Brewing from Vienna whilst Ben drinks new beers from Yonder Brewing & Blending and Duration.

RO 25 – Mistakes, Laughs and Stretchy Things. Alfred has notes that flit between being useful & useless on a whim. Adam has woes related to Wyverns. Lauren S. Hissrich is impressively patient on Twitter (@LHissrich). Kevin Feige is making whatever he damn well wants in Marvel Phase 4. Did Alfred say “Disney”? (he didn’t) What does Keanu Reeves command a room with? And who is the better Hitman? All this, and more, on Episode 25 of the Rattle On Podcast. *No 4 Year Olds were harmed during the making of this podcast.*   Email: rattleonpod@gmail.com Tweet: @RattleOnPod, @Alfred_Rome, @adamthomas1994 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChZvmx4XeU0OFdpK747n4Vg   Part of the Out of Lives Network outoflives.net

This week Lucy’s played Blazing Chrome, Ben laments the closure of Defiant Development and Aadil thinks about the responsibility of games and journalism with the announcement of Misinformer. We drink beers from Collective Arts, Brew By Numbers, Dry & Bitter, and two collabs, one from Cloudwater x Modern Times and another from Wylam x Track x North Brew Co.

This week our heroes recount their weekend in Birmingham visiting the Stirchley Beer Mile and hit a big food tangent. Lucy’s been playing The Eternal Castle (Remaster), Aadil wants to talk Hop Stuff Brewery and takeovers and Ben chats a break from gaming (albeit a short one). The beers drank are from Salt Beer Factory, Left Handed Giant, Monyo Brewing, Brick Brewery and The Garden Brewery.

Its a beer and ben-less episode this week as Aadil and Lucy prep for the Bristol crew heading to Birmingham for some Lucy-curated beerbauchery. We manage to start with a conversation about youth drinking and the growing craft gin movement. We talk Prey and the latest Niantic augmented reality game: Harry Potter Wizarding World, while sipping on both sparkling and still H20. We also manage to talk hangovers, when we get them and possible ways to avoid them, hint: h20 is your friend.

Episode 24!   Spider-Man Far From Home! The first look at Netflix’s The Witcher! Random films Alfred’s been watching, and the first video content we’ve ever made.   Email Us: rattleonpod@gmail.com Twitter: @RattleOnPod @Alfred_Rome @adamthomas1994   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChZvmx4XeU0OFdpK747n4Vg   outoflives.net

Ben and Aadil had a little trip out last night so this weeks episode has some beer chat but doesn’t feature any drinking, boo, hiss, we know. Ben and Aadil went to The Good Measure for a tap take over from The Kernel and tell Lucy all about the beers. Lucy’s been playing more Super Mario Maker 2 and has finished Bloodstained Ritual of the Night. Ben talks a little about Sunless Skies and cries that PES was removed from PS Plus. Finally, Aadil has a list of indie titles to discuss including Distance, Flat Out 2, Nidhogg 2 and Super Flight.

After a little over a year absence, we’re back!   Alfred’s finally finished The Witcher 3 Blood & Wine! Adam’s been reliving his childhood in Modern Warfare Remaster, Alfred forgot to review Spider-Man PS4, and many other chats about nothing at all but also lots of things?!   Email us here: rattleonpod@gmail.com Twitter us here: @RattleOnPod Alfred: @Alfred_Rome Adam: @adamthomas1994

Ben, Lucy and Aadil discuss Draugen and walking sims, Super Mario Maker 2, various Konami collections, Cadence of Hyrule and what insane game TV shows we’d like to see following the FF14 announcement. We drink beers from Magic Rock, Pressure Drop, Townsquare brewing, Cloudwater and Adnams.

Francis, Lucy & Andy take you through all the Nintendo news from this years E3. This episode features absolutely no technical hitches whatsoever… none… What. So. Ever.

There is also a note here about E3 Strands but we’ve no idea what that means. Ben drinks ‘New Best Friend’ from Left Handed Giant and the North Brewing and Other Half collaboration DIPA. Lucy starts with the Wylam x Yeastie Boys collab ‘WxY4’ and follows it with ‘Wow Signal’ from Verdant.

On this episode of the Out of Rupees podcast, Francis & Lucy look ahead to E3 2019 and discuss what might lie in store for Nintendo this year. Will the new announcements crash Nintendo’s online service? Will the next instalment of the Zelda franchise be more like Dark Souls? Will Lucy finally play something that isn’t an Indie Game!? All this and more predictions in the episode. No Andy this time, which means he’ll no doubt be back for the post-E3 run down to laugh at the predictions made here and how wrong they were. Did you know he was a spy on a top secret mission? No? Me neither.

With Aadil in Canada for another week… wait, he’s in this episode? Aadil makes an early afternoon appearance to join Ben and long-time listener, first-time guest Callum Orr.
