Huge thanks to Zoey for spotlighting Banned Together on True Avatars, her weekly podcast about queer video games! We chatted about everything from fascism & queer erasure to puzzle design & “MetroidBrainias.” Check it out in the links below!

Thanks so much for the shout-out, @kymira.ca! We couldn't have asked for a better neighbor than @wtchcrft.com at @qgcon.bsky.social last weekend. We should totally collaborate on a "queer indie games inspired by Blue Prince" bundle, haha! 🩵
