ETAO Podcast, Episode 47.
Gabby DaRienzo stops by to talk about her work as one half of the core Laundry Bear Games team, from A Mortician’s Tale (and Tracktoons) to their still-in-its-early-days next project—as well as her excellent, now-concluded podcast Play Dead, and her extensive and varied freelance work on Celeste, Parkitect, Graceful Explosion Machine, and the upcoming Super Crush K.O. (among other fine videogamic works).
I do of course also take the chance to talk to Gabby about death in games (and in general), on account of her well and truly knowing her shit in that arena—and I pick her brain about the upscaled visuals in Katamari Damacy REROLL, for that very same reason.
