  • Play planet crafter also planet crafter is pretty calm game but challenging

    5 stars for all I like how you talk about other games besides the game you’re talking about and besides just games like films and how your day is going

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

2025 Game Nominations | Geeks & Grounds Podcast
Q: If you were going to sit down next to a person, what game would you choose for someone who hasn’t played video games?
I think something like Florence is a great pick since it does not require 3D dexterity and offers a narrative-driven experience.
The Power of Suggestion 💗 A Conversation with à la mode games | Sorry We're Closed Interview
Q: How does it feel to have released the queerest, kinkiest and most thoughtful relationship game on Steam since Robert Yang's Radiator Z?
It feels good but unexpected, as we hoped people would enjoy the game without knowing how it would be received.
The Power of Suggestion 💗 A Conversation with à la mode games | Sorry We're Closed Interview
Q: What were your inspirations for the fashion in this game?
The fashion is a mesh of experiences over time, combining street fashion influences, particularly from Harajuku, and personal style preferences not realized due to practicality.
A Conversation with Fayer 🎤 Arco #05 | Geeks & Grounds Podcast
Q: What at the beginning was the idea or the thought that made you want to do this project?
The project initially aimed to be a roguelite game, but Fayer suggested making it more story-driven instead.
