Lunar Sea Spire

GC13 and David discuss BUDS from Glitch Techs. Come on, we can’t be the only ones disappointed we never got to see any gameplay from Burrowing Underground Doppelganger Squad. At least we got to see some Pixel Panic, even if it does seem oddly familiar… But this is it: the start of Mitch’s redemption. The seeds planted that will one day grow into sympathy for the devil (or at least that one jerk who always hogs all of the XP).

GC13 and David discuss The Emily Ghost Institute For Manners and Magical Etiquette from Summer Camp Island, and yep: that title is a mouth full. And we all know how rude it is to talk with your mouth full. Well, except for maybe Oscar. (He’s kind of thick, you see.) At least he didn’t have to eat any knuckle sandwiches, and Hedgehog even got to go to school for a day! We do have our doubts about the quality of Ms. Ghost’s program though. All we’re saying is, we don’t see witches using very many skylights…

GC13 and David discuss Ralphie Bear is Back from Glitch Techs. So, everyone mark “Five Nights at Freddy’s episode” off of your checklist. Jinkies those animatronics are creepy… Thank goodness we have a Birthday Ruiner around to take care of them! Maybe we even have two… Save all of your money up, and you too can have a robot try to ruin your birthday! At least the prizes at the prize counter actually cost a reasonable amount though. Still a pretty good timeline, even without the Glitch Tech catgirls.

GC13 and David discuss Oscar and His Demon from Summer Camp Island. It’s an episode where the strictest standards of silence are upheld. There’s no speaking, no music, and no sounds of wildlife (don’t worry, the woodpeckers are excellent mimes). Well we say there’s no speaking, but that bit at the end… Oscar’s demon gives voice to some very interesting thoughts. Certainly Summer Camp Island has more to teach us than just the joys of friendship. Remember kids, sometimes it’s important to live a little.

GC13 and David discuss Spirit Balls from Summer Camp Island. Ah, 10 years before Betsy. Isn’t it nice to be able to place things on a timeline? We get another look at Mallory in this episode, but it’s Emma we really get a dive into. But… Do we actually understand her any better? No, no, all we have is questions. If Spirit Balls didn’t make you wonder then you weren’t paying attention, but seeing what the witches were up to in the past is always a treat.

GC13 and David discuss Breakfast Like Gene Kelly from Summer Camp Island. We may not know much about Gene Kelly, but we know a lot about Summer Camp Island—except for maybe monster names, we’re still working on those. Thank goodness we have pine needle skiing with a ski patrol, and a swear patrol to go along with them! Also, we know a lot about health codes too. We have our doubts that Oscar’s kitchen behavior would pass a health inspection…

GC13 and David discuss Ping from Glitch Techs. This is it: the big retro game episode! Games like Pong may not be as advanced as the games we play nowadays, but they’re still fun. Even Super Mario 64 still has a few things it can teach us. But of course Mitch isn’t a big fan of the beepy-bloopy retro titles. He’ll be getting his character development soon enough though, don’t you worry.

GC13 and David bring up a double-header and discuss both Sea Bunnies and Mushrumours from Summer Camp Island. Sea Bunnies is a wild ride, not least because of the huge difference in art style the episode has. Just watch out for the sea rabbits: they’re not nearly as cute and cuddly as they first appear… It’s Mushrumours that gives us another piece of the lore puzzle, with witches not bending nature to their whim. Plus, a huge lore drop: Alice is, in fact, a woolly mammoth, NOT an elephant!

GC13 and David discuss Susie’s Fantastical Scavenger Hunt from Summer Camp Island. Yeah, Susie’s lost a lot of earring backs, okay? At least she remembers vaguely where she lost them. And apparently isn’t too particular about where she gets them from, as long as she gets them. Oscar and Lucy make a good team though, even if it’s only due to the embracing of a diabolical nature. Anything for Heartforde. Oh, and egg on pizza: yea or nay?

GC13 and David discuss Dark Harvest from Invader Zim, AKA “Body Horror: The Episode”. You could do body part replacement without it looking so uncomfortable, but that’s not the world Invader Zim takes place in. Everything is awful, everyone is awful, and every background must be lovingly crafted by a (hopefully) well-paid background artist for use in a single shot. Yeah, pairing this one up with Germs was probably the right call. Bestest Friends would have just been too much.

GC13 and David discuss The Glitch Modder from Glitch Techs. Introducing a new character is a heck of a way to start a season (or the second half of a season for you sticklers). Well, Ridley… If you’ve seen the episode you’ll know, and if you haven’t seen the episode then what are you waiting for? It’s good to see that Mitch is still in jerk mode. Some things never change. Or… Do they? This will be the final episode of the podcast also available on YouTube.

GC13 and David discuss Together Again from Adventure Time: Distant Lands. Finn and Jake are finally together again! We knew this was coming ever since Finn had his Jake tattoo in Obsidian, and it’s a suitably epic adventure for Finn and Jake to end their tenure on. Did you wonder about Dead Worlds? We get to see a few. We even know some numbers for them! This episode of the podcast is also available on YouTube.

GC13 and David discuss Sneeze Guard from Summer Camp Island. Yes, an episode about being sick to follow an episode about germs. And oh how sick things become. Alice doesn’t pass her illness on to anyone, oh no—she passes it on to the island itself. Magical illnesses don’t mess around on Summer Camp Island. Thankfully, witches have the ability to make a loyal assistant out of anyone, so Susie and Betsy are there to make things better. Eventually. This episode of the podcast is also available on YouTube.

GC13 and David discuss Germs from Invader Zim. Another episode of Zim, another episode that got its own Flash game on Nick.com. Okay, this is also the last one with its own game, but it’s still remarkable. So come with us into a world where the 3D printers are really good and the spray cans last forever—a world of spaaaaaace meat! This episode of the podcast is also available on YouTube.

GC13 and David discuss Karate Trainer from Glitch Techs. Become one with the combo—see, we told you tutorials are useful! It’s Lexi’s time to shine with a little bit of help from Karate Trainer 4, so let’s get achievement hunting! Ribbit! This episode of the podcast is also available on YouTube.
