Following up on June's interview with Shinri of Holostars, Maverick hops aboard the Starlight Car with Cover CEO Motaki Tanigo, AKA Yagoo, and CTO Ryota Aomi, also known for his work previously as the series producer for Dragon Quest. Maverick asks about the trajectory of Hololive EN in the last 5 years, how Holoearth and other game endeavors seek to bridge connections between talent to fans, and what it means to be a Vtuber corporation amidst the ever growing subculture.

Maverick had the opportunity to sit down with HOLOSTARS Guild TEMPUS member Josuiji Shinri! Shinri is someone who thinks critically about his role as a streamer, and the way that the modern-day access to audiences can really lead to some positive impacts. Between video games and vulnerability, Shinri highlights just how his decision to take to the medium has led to ripples in the lives of others. You can find Shinri at his YouTube channel here!

Episode Notes Scott and John sit down with a handful of the folks with the Duke Nukem Forever 2001 Restoration Project to talk about revitalizing the promised Duke Nukem Forever that didn't quite meet player's expectations when it finally came out. In 2022, a Duke Nukem Forever build leaked on 4chan that was much closer to the vision of Duke Nukem Forever seen trailers up until 2001. This caused an intrepid group of modders, game devs and artists of all stripes to try and rebuild the promised version of Duke Nukem Forever that Duke fans didn't exactly get in 2011. You can find the Duke Nukem Forever: Restoration Project on Twitter @DNF2001rp, and on their ModDB page. The theme for Starlight Car is a “Super Chill" remix of Aquamarine by Magic Circuit, which is available off their self-titled album, Magic Circuit. You can find them at @magic_circuit on Twitter or at magic-circuit.com for more details.

It’s another ride in the parlour as Elvie talks with David Evans about the audio only video game The Vale: Shadow of the Crown. David tells us all about developing a game for blind and low-sighted gamers, and navigating blind representation in not-so-stereotypical fashion, and what making a game for such an under-considered space in gaming means for the people who play it. This episode also contains clips from the game so you can listen and experience it for yourself, which also means that it’s presented in, and has been edited to utilize, full stereo sound. So give this one a listen with a nice pair of speakers or just a cool pair of headphones if you want the full experience. The Vale: Shadow of the Crown is available on Steam, itchio, the Epic Games Store, and Xbox.
