🎮 Enjoying learning about Comedy in Games? Then, after the show, check our store http://extracredits.store/ and show off your fandom! In this episode, we break down how comedy works in games, from classic written humor like Portal, and The Stanley Parable to gameplay-driven chaos like What the Golf?, Octodad, Gang Beasts, and PEAK. We explore how structure, expectations, failure, and lack of control turn gameplay itself into the punchline.
