Talking to My Boy about Videogames – 29 – The Legend of Cats: Aura of Dumpling

A new Zelda game might be a chance for Jonathan and Ryan to bond, if it didn’t have so many dang words to read. Ryan is more interested in cats and spiders on this one, but Jonathan tries several times to keep things moving along. Can he do it? Along the way, we get some thoughts about Wild Blue Skies, Naruto, Binding of Isaac Repentance+, Blood Dungeon, Faith: The Unholy Trinity, and more!

Daniel is a podcast producer and musician who spends way too much time in the edit to make audio sound as good as possible. He’s cutting the “umms” and “uhhhs” and replacing them with cartoon sound effects. His taste in video games is often extremely specific, and he’s recently learned that a lot of his opinions about video games are bad and wrong, but that won’t stop him from having them. His music was featured in Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons. He's been producing podcasts since 2021.
