    Capturing Malevolent Psychokinetic Apparitions Gives Me Large Amounts of Dopamine

    If there's something strange, and your episode title is long, who you gonna call? Co-Op Chaos, obviously. This is no time for Ghostbusters! Oh s***, actually it IS time for Ghostbusters! Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed, that is. Grab a box of Hi-C Ecto Cooler and slide down the fire pole with us to go bust some ghosts! This week we're joined by Afterlife Boy, the talent behind our music on the show and our amazing longtime friend. We capture some ghosts, get slimed a bit, and talk at length about the incredible and iconic Ghostbusters franchise as a whole. Enjoy Afterlife Boy's music and want to hear more? Check out his YouTube Channel. We have 2 more weeks of spooky season episodes!! And the last will be Left4Dead 2, a much needed game for us to cover that probably won't be properly covered in one episode, but we'll do it justice.

    Finding Love in All the Wrong Mazes

    Another late episode, but it's because this game was so terrifying, it was hard to edit without running away screaming. Actually, life happened but better late than never! We had Snuff from Super Earth Podcast joining us for this creepy maze / puzzle horror game, Labyrinthine! Keeping the spooky season alive, this game is sure to creep you out. Lots of creep factor, lots of scary things happening, and it amps up in the right places to keep you on your toes. Also, we WILL be covering Left4Dead 2 for Halloween! A long wait, but it will be well worth it. Check out Co-Op Now, an amazing resource to find co-op games, learn all about them, and connect with other co-op players!

    Technical Difficulty Hell

    You're probably wondering "hey Bob and Aaron, why is this episode so late?" Well, the title says it all. We usually have technical issues of the minor kind, but this week we had a significant issue and had to wait most of the week for Riverside to recover some of our audio. Thus, better late than never! This is the first of our Spooky Season episodes! Each week in October, we'll cover a scary horror game, something spooky themed, etc. This week, we decided to play No More Room in Hell, originally a Half-Life 2 mod turned standalone game... ish? We have some strong feelings about this one, but stay tuned for No More Room in Hell 2 later this month. A much better experience. We love zombie FPS games, and at least this one sparked another that is very good? And it's free, so do what you will with that information. Also, we WILL be covering Left4Dead 2 for Halloween! A long wait, but it will be well worth it. Check out Co-Op Now, an amazing resource to find co-op games, learn all about them, and connect with other co-op players!

    Euphemism Donuts

    Bob has returned! And he brought Todd, Soap, and Milk along for this one! Remember the days when you were a kid, and it was the day after a big snow storm? Okay, maybe you didn't grow up in a snowy part of the world like we did, but just close your eyes and try to imagine. You call up your friends, armor up with the warmest gear on hand, grab some busted plastic disks or old cardboard boxes that barely pass as a vessel for gliding across the frosty deep. You climb the largest hill you can travel to, and you feel the fluttering in your stomach as you soar down at max speed. If you want to relive that as an adult but spare yourself the frostbite and easy injuries in your old age, you'll want to grab Sledding Game, a cozy co-op where you get to be cute animals, gather accessories, drink hot chocolate, and build some fun jumps! Suit up and sled down! Warning: This game is good for the kids, but our episode may not be!

    Tales from the Front: Fillersode 01

    Hey Listeners of Chaos, Bob here. I had the forces of the universe coming at me (part fun travel time to a wedding, part life stuff I'll lightly touch on in the next episode), so Aaron graciously flew solo to offer you some Helldivers 2 content! Grab a drink and sit back while Aaron reads a compelling, eerie, and thought-provoking 3-part story he originally wrote and submitted to Super Earth Podcast, but with a newly polished gleam, enticing Helldivers 2 sound effects, and in his own voice. He also kindly walked through a tier list of weapons he's ranked up in Helldivers 2. Check it out on YouTube or Spotify if you want to see the weapons as he shares his thoughts on each one. His tier list for his "Not for Me" felt like a personal attack. I'm a shotgun girlie. But we still love him. Let us know how you like his story, if you want us to do more tier lists for games you like, or if you want to hear more stories from us! Thanks for listening to this fun fillersode, and thank you Aaron for carrying the chaos on your back and letting me take some time!

    One Hit Point Wonder

    It's 1996 and you're at the mall. You wander into the arcade, where hopes dreams, and quarters go to die but at least you're entertained! You want to feel cool, so you set your sights on something with some action, guns, EXPLOSIONS! This new game, Metal Slug, catches your eye with the slightest glint. You throw a quarter in and get comfy. But now, 30 years later, does it hold up? Can arcade games still be viable in today's age of hyper-realism and 3D supremacy? We thought so!
