Astroneer

More enjoyable than running, it's time for the SaladCast! Zac outdoes himself and talks about at least three manufacturing games, Rob checks out Omega Strikers and the first Splatfest of Splatoon 3 and Dan embraces the sugar tax.

We're a little light on games news and game playing this week so it time to get rambly. Take a stroll with us through to cosy dales of chat in this less focused, laid back podcast. There arte still some games though. We talk a bit about Tunic, Rocket League Sideswipe, Astroneer and Fortnite??? Whatever next?

There may have been a falling out at the E household. EA and E3 don't seem to turn up to gatherings together anymore. Now EA wants to come and stay on the couch. Should we let them?

We've also got the Annapurna presentation and the tyre fire over at Activision Blizzard to talk about and some of the usual suspects turn up for emotional support.

I'm spending my time thinking about alternative doomsday theories. If cats cast aside their differences with the pigeons, their web of information could bring down governments. They know what they're doing and I'm onto them.

In this episode we pick out a few things from New Game +, discuss the return of live sports, play Pool Panic and Creeper World 4 and check in on a few regulars.

One theory about the SaladCast is that we are just part of a long flashback sequence. In the present, two spiky haired dudes charge up for a bit of a fight. We do not yet know how we are relevant to the greater plot. Perhaps we’ll get there.

Rob has been let out of the cage once again to terrorise the halls of EGX. Time for a convention special!
