Remap Radio 125 : The Harbinger of Failure (or Anti-influencer)
It’s time to take The Warden’s Oath and listen to a new episode of Remap Radio, as Patrick, Janet, Chia, Rob, and Danika break down the wild ups and downs of the latest confused live service game, Highguard. We also sigh in the direction of a video game publication pivoting to AI, then sigh in the direction of Mewgenics, a game that Patrick quite liked before its designer decided to publicly step in it over and over. Elsewhere, we chat about a few other games, including Love Eternal and the mysterious Titanium Court, and then answer several of your questions.Discussed:0:54 - Highguard Dev Lays Off Large Percentage of Staff36:45 - The Escapist Pivots to AI50:26 - AI is Causing a Ram Shortage1:08:20 - Mewgenics1:41:57 - Titanium Court1:53:29 - God of War: Sons of Sparta1:56:55 - Love Eternal2:15:12 - The Question BucketSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Love Eternal Is Fine If You Never Experience Its Terrifying Story
Platformers are not a genre exactly known for their storytelling prowess, but Love Eternal, described as a “psychological horror platformer,” is trying to be different. It’s also one of the hardest platformers in a minute. Why is Love Eternal putting so much effort into a story many players might not experience? Patrick talked with Love Eternal designer Toby Alden to find out.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Remap Radio — Internal Discord
It’s a return to normalcy on Remap Radio, as we finally wave goodbye to 2025. Join Janet, Rob, Patrick, Chia, and Danika as they sort through reactionary “protect the children” changes coming to Discord, prompting a wide ranging discussion about the state of the modern internet. We also worry about the future of Remedy, talk through the final games on Danika’s game of the year list, and have plenty of (new!) games to talk about, including Cairn, Reanimal, and more!

Sports! — Fallen Empire
The Super Bowl has happened, and for a rare moment goodness prevailed, as the New England Patriots were not just beaten—they were humiliated. Patrick and Rob cannot help but clap like seals, even if the game itself wasn’t that great. Plus, we chat about the sweaty amount of AI commercials during the Big Game, the coolness of the Olympic “Gold Zone,” and how Rob’s continued interest in mediocre Chicago Bulls roster constructions has hit a logical end.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Edmund McMillen Is Still Nervous About Releasing a Video Game
Between the success of Super Meat Boy and Binding of Isaac, you might assume designer Edmund McMillen is feeling confident going into the release of his latest game, the tactics-focused Mewgenics. But it turns out self esteem issues, insecurity, and hoping people like what you’ve made is not a feeling that ever goes away, no matter how many people buy your games.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
