Throw some AA batteries into your listening device (it's totally there, I swear) and get ready for this week's show with homebrew Game Boy developer Max Oakland! Max recently released his open-world platformer, Wink & the Broken Robot, on real cartridges. He tells us about all the pieces that go into creating physical copies, his other creative passions like music and claymation, and taking level design inspiration from forgotten parts of our world. Featuring songs from KChG!
