This week we decide to go back to the 2014 Nazi killing game, Wolfenstein: The New Order. ‘This game is better than it has any right to be.’ That has been my quick and dirty mantra about this game whenever anyone asks. Several years later I feel it still holds …
This is the last minisode of the year for the Critical Distance Confab. Thank you to Angelina Bonilla, Red Angel, for sticking around after her interview to do this extra 15 minutes of recording. I’ll admit, I’m a little iffy about about how well we hyped up these two games. …
This week on the Moving Pixels Podcast we go to space to talk AI and workplace drama in Tacoma. This is an interesting one for us, because Gone Home at one point was our longest podcast. There was a lot to dig into and a lot of contextual stuff to …
I wrap up this series of interviews with video producers and essayists by checking out relative newbie and indie game specialist, Angelina Bonilla, better known as Red Angel. (Also a lot easier to say apparently.) We had a long fruitful conversation in which Red Angel was able to display her …

For Halloween this year, we look at the horror text adventure anthology Stories Untold. It’s an interesting game that deserves a lot more people looking at it. Is it good? Well, it’s got a lot of good things in it. Again, we ended up looking at a game that I …
Alex Carlson, the subject of this month’s interview on thee Critical Distance Confab, and his channel PostMesmeric is a relatively new find for me. Because YouTube can only find it in itself to recommend videos I’ve already watched (multiple times) it closes off a lot of what is out there …
This week on the Moving Pixels Podcast, we discuss Giant Sparrow’s sophomore game, What Remains of Edith Finch. This is a long one folks. It always seems the denser video games are the ones we take longer to discuss. At the time, I felt we kept going around in circles …
Weeks later, we finally finish up our mini-series of episodes on Telltale’s Tales from the Borderlands. This podcast episode did not go the way I thought it would. See, Nick had steadily become more and more hyped on the game with each passing episode. So, I figured episode 5 would …
