Did anyone else think this was an April Fool’s joke? I had never heard of this game and when the podcast appeared in my feed I thought, “Ha, one of my favorite video game podcasts is doing an April Fool’s podcast on going outside. Wait, it’s two hours long? How far do they take this joke?” It took me until the platform release discussion to google and realize that it is in fact a real game. Thanks for all the hours of great podcasting!
Ha! We didn’t even consider that! Thank you for the kind words Philip.
