Old Gamer’s Almanac

Dynamite Headdy (1994)

This week we're talking about an old fun weird platformer, DYNAMITE HEADDY! This game was developed by Treasure which is a personal fave of this show and it's got a lot of charm and was quite fun to play. Listen to Matt, Hunter, and EJ as they chat about what they got out of this under-loved Sega Genesis game! We finish up with some discussion about the upcoming RETRO GAMES TOURNAMENT which you can check out if you head over to our Patreon.

Helldivers 2 (2024)

We've got Hunter, EJ, and Alec aka "Root" today on to talk about the multiplayer sensation that is HELLDIVERS 2. This game is a whole lot of fun to play with your buds and it's got some real solidly executed comedy underneath. We also go into the drama zone and talk about some of the missteps sony has taken along the way. Hunter also makes fun of the critical response to last week's episode but remember that he loves you. ;)

Mortal Kombat 2 (1994) *Retro Game Tournament Announcement*

We're back on our 1994 game! This episode we catch up on what Electronic Gaming Monthly was up to over the summer of '94 and we announce our patreon retro game tournament which will be coming to the community and we'll be streaming it this October! We also talk a bit about Mortal Kombat 2 which is a game that was heavily featured in all the magazines but is not really our cup of tea by any stretch of the imagination.

Wildermyth (2021)

We're near the end of OGA Summer Break, and EJ and Matt got to sit down one final time together to talk about another game that EJ has sunk MANY hours into: Wildermyth. You might have forgotten that this game even came out a couple of years ago, but EJ sure didn't. And remembering stuff about the game is like half of the game. (That's a good joke that will make sense once we explain what this even is...)

Baldur's Gate 3 (2023)

The Case of the Golden Idol (2022)

Matt and EJ are back with some more sweet games from 2022, which seem to be filling up our summer break episodes. The Case of the Golden Idol seemed right up our alley and sometimes things are exactly what they seem. More importantly, this was a delightfully tricky puzzle game that didn't take a ton of time to complete!

Final Fantasy V (1992)

Hunter and Sun are back with even more Final Fantasy! Our preparation for Final Fantasy 6 is now complete but don't sleep on V! We really liked this game and our conversation about it proved to be much more exciting than anticipated, this game is great and people should stop sleepin' on it. Sorry about the audio quality there were some problems!
