What are some of the most innovative platformers we’ve played? Are metroidvanias really platformers? Finally, we discuss our non-game recommendations, which includes Svalbard’s album When I Die, Will I Get Better, Eula Biss’s essay collection Having and Being Had, the film Judas and the Black Messiah, and animated series Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts.
