Shit.
Chuck ZimmerheldPANELIST
So this is from the same developers as Umurangi Generation, which I haven't played, but I think I understand that game is like photography.
Chuck ZimmerheldPANELIST
You're going around a city, and then it kind of peels back the layers, and it ends up being more about colonizers and indigenous peoples and stuff like that.
Chuck ZimmerheldPANELIST
Neftali, what's his name? One of the main guys that works on those projects, but...
Chris PlanteHOST
little surprised by that optimistic, I would say, message.
Chris PlanteHOST
Because your previous work, and correct me if I'm wrong here, but when I think of Umurangi Generation...
Chris PlanteHOST
I think of a game that is set in a world not so different like ours, more extreme, but sort of an end of the world.
Chris PlanteHOST
It is wrecked in many ways.
Joseph RichardsHOST
if Benedict Cumberbatch was talking about it.
StephenGUEST
From the developers of Umurangi Generation, the game that was very, very political, but revealed itself towards the end, and loads of players were like, I can't believe this game, you tricked me into playing a political game.
StephenGUEST
And by political, these are ardently anti-racist, anti-fascist games from a developer that
Joseph RichardsHOST
said that...
Matt StormGUEST
It's an indie game.
Matt StormGUEST
It's by the same developer who made Umurangi Generation.
Matt StormGUEST
I was just looking at this.
Matt StormGUEST
Umurangi Generation is a fantastic game.
Matt StormGUEST
It's a photography game that takes place at the end of the world, basically.
Matt StormGUEST
Aliens have invaded.
John RogersHOST
The same goes for Penguin Colony.
John RogersHOST
This is the latest game from the creators of Umurangi Generation, the Seamus McNally Grand Prize award-winning indie game.
John RogersHOST
Penguin Colony is a weird one.
John RogersHOST
It is a game about...
Brendon BigleyHOST
Either way, it's by them.
Brendon BigleyHOST
They made a game in, believe it or not, spring of 2020 called Umurangi Generation.
Brendon BigleyHOST
Yes.
Brendon BigleyHOST
Which...
Stephen HilgerHOST
OK. It's been on my backlog for forever and I wanted to play it alongside this, but I didn't have time.
Stephen HilgerHOST
But I'll get to that eventually.
Brendon BigleyHOST
Umurangi Generation, incredible, interesting video game that came out at the right time by it being also kind of the wrong time for the world.
Brendon BigleyHOST
It's a first person, very punk rock photography simulator that takes place in a dystopian future, which I don't want to say too much about the mechanics of that dystopia, because I think doing so would kind of probably constitute spoilers for that game.

Brendon BigleyHOST
But I am planning on taking it so easy this weekend, dear listener, and part of that process is going to be diving into Woohoo Island in Nintendo Switch Sports Resort, a game I'm very excited about.
Brendon BigleyHOST
The other one I want to shout out is Penguin Colony, which is a new indie game by the team behind Umurangi Generation.
Brendon BigleyHOST
And Penguin Colony is an exciting prospect because if you haven't played Umurangi Generation, it's by Ori Game Digital is the name of the studio.
Brendon BigleyHOST
It's an indie team.
Brendon BigleyHOST
That game came out in 2020, right? And right at the beginning of the pandemic, almost felt like a commentary on the pandemic immediately.
