How the turn tables have turned
Please ignore that I erroneously call this episode 34 at the start of the episode. In episode 35 of The Electronic Wireless Showpodcastwe briefly discuss Just Stop Oil’s game-themed protest at EGX this weekend, as well as re-highlighting a guide from the Arma 3 devs so you can tell when someone is trying to share fake war footage (originally created during the early weeks of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, but now relevant again with the spread of fake Israeli-Palestinian conflict videos). For our larger theme we discuss games that flip-reverse their theme when you least expect it, which is usually seemingly-cute games becoming horror - much likeHarvest Island.
Plus: James gives us a rundown of fun games he tried at EGX, which sound very cool!

We’ve been playinga bunch of stuff this week. James played his way around the Rezzed Zone and recommends: magical goat platformerBillie Bust Up, racing gameResistor, and cute open world adventurePine Hearts. In the Leftfield Collection he enjoyed the cool missing-words visual novelCom–et, and stop motion adventureJudero. More EGX highlightshere!
I finished playingWorld Of Horrorafter this podcast and decided I love it, and Nate has been having fun inAgainst The Storm.
