We've released 4 episodes about Rogue Legacy:

Sound-byte 103: Rogue Legacy 2

Sound-bytes are our shorter episodes about what we’ve been up to recently. Sefran has picked up the sequel to the game that defined 'Rogue-lite'. But is Rogue Legacy 2 a worthy successor to the OG?

027: Jump to it

In this episode we return to the topic of platformers. All the things we love, some of the things we hate. Not much in the way of notes for this episode; we really just sit back and have a bit of a chat. Enjoy!

018: Is the 3D platformer dead?

In this episode of Octal FM we try to decide: Is the 3D platforming video game genre dead? Games we discuss:
  • Arcade games such as Donkey Kong, Mario Bros
  • Croc
  • Metroid and Castlevania
  • Crash Bandicoot
  • Rogue-likes such as Spelunky and Rogue Legacy
  • Puzzle-platformers like Super Meat Boy and N+
  • Is Yooka-Laylee the return of 3D platformers?
  • Snake Pass
