This week Jared and Rage both were out of town so we will be playing an updated Gameclub for you.  Next week we'll get to hear about Rage's trip to an anime con,  and Jared's trip to DC during the US government shutdown.      This week Shrink & Rage hold the monthly game club, this month taking a look at Overland.

Ever wonder why a perfectly good game can leave you feeling oddly frustrated, or how a seemingly terrible launch decision gets made? The Video Game Logic Podcast digs into the human side of pixels and polygons. Hosted by a Gaming Psychologist and the energetically opinionated Caffeine Rage, this podcast is less about review scores and more about the actual experience of playing and making games. Each conversation explores the industry's latest triumphs and baffling missteps, but always circles back to the impact on players and developers. You'll hear candid analysis that blends professional insight with passionate fan perspective, breaking down not just what happened, but the thoughts and feelings those events provoke. It’s a space for unpacking everything from brilliant design choices that create genuine joy to corporate strategies that spark collective caffeine rage. Tune in for a show that treats video games as the complex cultural and psychological artifacts they truly are, offering a deeper way to process your own relationship with this ever-evolving medium. Find the Video Game Logic Podcast wherever you get your audio.
