126 - Wide Ocean Big Jacket

This week, we play Wide Ocean Big Jacket, the new game by Turnfollow, a.k.a. Carter Lodwick and Ian Endsley, the game-design duo that we interviewed in an earlier episode. Not to spoil too much, but it’s just. so. good. We talk about the game’s many strengths, from visual design to comedic timing, and how it manages to do more with less. We agree that it nails the “vibe” of camping. Blake explains how character design tells stories. Jordan applauds a bilingual innuendo.
