Show Notes
Hey! There's a new game out called Silksong, and apparently it's good?
Deranged Metroidvandia fanatic Sky Burkson returns to the pod to school us on how Hollow Knight became a genre-defining (refining?) game, and why the long wait for its sequel turned into an Internet-breaking cultural phenomenon that's definitely not for everyone.
