TLDR:

We rebranded from "Truth Scrapper Podcast" to "the insertdisc5 corner". We still yap about Truth Scrapper tho and we talk about memory and trauma in this one. but we also talk about ISAT so ISAT fans you can listen to this one (and previous episodes too..........)

LONGER VERSION:

Chris and I made a Truth Scrapper Podcast. But it meant we could only talk about Truth Scrapper. And tragically, Chris and I love to yap about many things. Including ISAT. so we rebranded. and now it's the insertdisc5 corner where we talk about my games and stuff.

In this episode I go into detail about why after making a game about memory (In Stars and Time), I am now making another game about memory (Truth Scrapper)! And also we talk about trauma and how the brain and body react to it! Also about cults! Yay! Yahoo!

i'm so happy you're here, with me!

old sosotte animation! it's so old she doesn't even have eyes on her hat!

probably this one

ive been thinking about that for a while. heres one such encounter

ive realized recently that sosotte is a very old character of mine, repurposed and now a girl. everyone say congrats on your transition sosotte

QUESTION ASKER!!! the religion in the game is "Artisanism", which is the belief in two gods: the Great Artisan, who created and Saturated the world, and the Judge Critic, who looked at the world and deemed it worthy. the religion will play an important role!

sosotte was first! the concept was immediately about an amnesiac character who only remembers whats in her book, and it grew from there

this is amour's laughing portrait. make of that what you will

for many reasons, none of them would have been in a position to watch cartoons

amour voice "well that doesnt sound yummy!"

amour would be the worst one. betz the best because he's helpful :)

a complicated question. how does one define "worst".

ok to be super clear i dont think she's plural. every day she forgets everything, so she's used to seeing the sosottes of previous days as "someone else", who made decisions without present sosotte's input. she doesn't have sosotte headmates, but the situation she's in DOES have a lot in common with plurality i think! kinda like how in ISAT, siffrin is not plural, but also loop is right there. i dont think she's plural, but it's not a reach to read her as such.

anyway im doing some research on plurality, but its not really the main focus. i hope this doesnt disappoint people too much!

i liked jello's :)

FUCK uuuuuh

sosotte: hm. vanilla

amour: no preference??? would eat anything

betz: something hipstery like lavender or w/e

I was invited on the Dialed Indie podcast!

Listen to me and Lotus talk about game development and writing and, predictably, we spent quite a bit of time on ✨"tumblr games"✨ (bolded and sparkled for emphasis), fandom, shipping, shoujo, and more!
