Storm’s comin' in
It’s time once again for an episode of The Electronic Wireless Showpodcast. This week Nate returns, but Matthew is away - and since he is the real agent of chaos, Nate and I have a remarkably sensible conversation about different weather and seasons in a lot of games. Who’d have thought? Not me. And in fact there is weather in all sorts of places you wouldn’t expect to look.
Don’t worry, though, because we find time to talk about how our weeks have been, as well as a bit where I tell Nate there’s going to be a survival crafting game set in Moria and he gets excited. Also, stay tuned for a Cavern Of Lies where Nate does a lot of cowboy voices. And shout out to John for sending in cheery EWS fan game Aquarium Assault: Dark Day For A Dogfish!
You can listen above, or onon Spotify,iTunes,Stitcher, orPocket Casts. You can find theRSS feed here, and you can discuss the episodeon our Discord channel, which has a dedicated room for podcast chat.

LinksAs I note, Nate mostly likes little men games, but they have good weather. Something likeGoing Medieval, for example, or - very significantly -Frostpunkdoes a very good line in weather.
Other tiny men games with weather include the good people ofRimWorldand their struggles against heat and cold, and the exciting exclamation marks ofDwarf Fortress.
Nate also really likes the jungle environment inDiablo II, citing its great jungle atmos.
Sin Vega (RPS in peace) really lovesOstriv, a game which I have never played and yet still know it has great weather.
Minecrafthas really great raine, andKingdom Come Deliverancehas good forests, although possibly by accident.
Metro ExodusandOxenfree IIhave spooooky mist weather.
Recommendationsthis week are the extremely lol Lostlike TV showFrom, and the albumTo The Bone by Stephen Wilson
