Micro Talk #4 | Crashlands

We didn’t have to look far to find the topic of GOTG Micro 4: St. Louis’ own, Crashlands from developer Butterscotch Shenanigans. Ryan Dampf from Living the Nerd Life is back again to speak to this interesting take on the open world crafting genre. Be sure to listen to our last Micro episode on Don’t Starve too, as there is a lot of comparing and contrasting on display for these games. 

Show Notes:

Butterscotch Shenanigans has their own podcast if you’re interested in hearing more from the devs themselves. 

Crashlands Has Womping Landed!

Crashlands is an ingenious mind flock that you won't be able to put down no matter how hard you try. Literally you won't be able to stop playing this game because not only is it out on Steam, iOS and Android but your saved data transfers across all the platforms seamlessly! BOOM SHOCKA LOCKA its about womping time someone figured this out!

Adventuring and crafting has never been easier or more fun. You have an unlimited amount of stuff you can carry so you never have to stop and organize your stash again. I got the amazing opportunity to get into the beta and have already spent over 50hrs smashing, crafting, running and sploging through all the content. I have not enjoyed a game this much in a very long womping time.

Enough of me telling you about it go pick it up on Steam, iOS or Android now and start your own adventure!
