Retronauts Episode 786: Retrogame Dreamscapes
Wake up sweetheart, new Retronauts just dropped
If you've played as many video games as I have, you probably see them in your sleep. After all, games are already dreamlike by default with convoluted geography and drastic transitions from one world to the next. Yet some games, intentionally or not, are more dreamlike than others.
Host Nadia Oxford welcomes her husband David Oxford onto our airwaves this week for a discussion of games that deal in the surreal and feel like dreams…or possibly nightmares.
Description: Nadia and David Oxford talk about how dreams and dreamscapes shape stories in retro games.
