Destination Indie - We love Game Pass Indies!

By Destination Indie

This is the home of Destination Indie, which celebrates a love of all things indie. The Podcast specifically focuses on Indies on Xbox Game Pass that are shorter experiences (10 hrs or less) because Kyleia & Zammwow, the hosts, are ADHD and this is our happy place! Our greatest hope is to help you find a game you've never heard of that you'll really enjoy! Elsewhere, Destination Indie covers independent games via articles & reviews on GeeksVsGeeks.com or livestreaming on Twitch :) Hosts: Kyleia & Zammwow Editor: Capt_Logun Merchandise: https://store.streamelements.com/kyleia

007: Boyfriend Dungeon

007: Boyfriend Dungeon

Destination Indie is a new series that began it's life as a feature of Keelhauled Podcast. We talk about indie games (mostly on Xbox Game Pass). Welcome.

On this episode, troublemakers Kyleia & Zammwow return for the "B" episode and explore Boyfriend Dungeon. This peculiar game is a dating sim mashed with a dungeon crawler, to interesting results. With the help of Producer Logun, we have a chat about this indie darling. We laugh, we discuss what made us uncomfortable, what worked, what didn't, and what could have been done better. Come join us, and then let us know what you thought! Who was your favorite date? What was your favorite story?

TRIGGER WARNING. Both this game and this podcast discuss some deeper, possibly uncomfortable topics such as stalking and ladies of the night. 

Starting with this episode we will have a slight format change, which means you can view a companion video for each podcast. Please visit Destination Indie's YouTube Channel to see us in person and Logun playing the game!

This episode is the welcome return to talking about indies available on Gamepass! Kyleia (Lish) and Logun are joined by a new voice Zammwow! With the new year, Zamm will be joining on a regular basis while I work on producing the podcast, and Kyleia being amazing as usual. They'll be working their way through as many indie games between A and Z as they can!

We cover "The Artful Escape". Here's a summary:
On the eve of his first performance, Francis Vendetti struggles with the legacy of a dead folk legend and the cosmic wanderings of his own imagination.
In an attempt to escape the musical legacy of his uncle, a teenage guitar prodigy embarks on a psychedelic journey to inspire his new stage persona, searching for who he isn’t in an adventure spanning stolen opera houses, melodic alien landscapes, and the impossible depths of the Cosmic Extraordinary.

Artful Escape has some excellent voice performances from: Michael Johnston, Caroline Kinley, Lena Headey, Jason Schwartzman, Mark Strong, and Carl Weathers.
