Pixel Project Radio is a video game podcast dedicated to analyzing the games we love. Each week, we play through a videogame and talk about it in a book club format. We summarize the plot beats while also analyzing the themes, discussing the mechanics, and generally talking about what worked and what didn't for us. It's a celebration of all things gaming, and whether you're playing every day or liked games as a kid, we've got something for you.

24 OCT 2024 · Our luck had to run out sooner or later.
This week, Rick is joined by Jon (Video Game Lounge Podcast) to dissect The Last of Us Part I, the critically acclaimed Naughty Dog title that became the posterchild for cinematic games. Part I of this series sees us introduced to Joel, his partner Tess, and a young girl named Ellie as the three navigate the harsh reality of a post-societal world ravaged by disease. Themes of human nature, the lack of social contract, and unconditional love frame what is ultimately a heartfelt tale - we hope you enjoy!

17 OCT 2024 · Don't get holy on me, James. This town called you, too. You and me are the same. We're not like other people. Don't you know that?
This week we conclude Silent Hill 2, the psychological horror titan from Team Silent. A deep descent - figuratively and literally - into James Sunderland's psyche shows horrors and suffering that nobody saw coming in the opening hour or two of the game. And what makes this so effective? In retrospect, the game has been intensely thematically focused from start to finish. Please enjoy!

10 OCT 2024 · Maybe...you hated her...!Â
Just in time for the Konami/Bloober Team remake, Rick is joined by returning guest Dustin to analyze the critically acclaimed psychological horror game Silent Hill 2. A separate entity from its progenitor, Silent Hill 2 sees players take the role of James Sunderland, a man searching for his late wife after receiving a mysterious letter from her three years after her passing. Nothing is as it seems in the town of Silent Hill. In part I, we cover cursory information, broad opinions on music, presentation, and mechanics, and analyze the first part of the story. If you are playing along, this episode covers up until our first visit to the hospital. Please enjoy!

4 OCT 2024 · This week, Rick is joined by Phil (Deleted Saves Podcast) for an analysis of the original Silent Hill, Konami's foray into psychological horror on the Playstation 1. While there is comparatively less to "analyze" in this first installment, it laid the path steady for the series to become the juggernaut of tension and storytelling that it is today. Learn about the town's humble beginnings and how all is not what it seems - please enjoy!

26 SEP 2024 · "Churches can be rebuilt easier than faith."Â
Rick is joined by Nick once again to conclude their critical analysis of Pentiment! As Andreas continues his investigation, the layers of the past - Pentimento - begin to become clear. But all is not as it seems. The history of Tassing, the identity of the Thread-Puller, Andreas's grief, and more are observed in great detail in this final chapter. Please enjoy!

17 SEP 2024 · "Art is illusion, storytelling, but in their most sublime form, these images illuminate a path to truth."
This week, Rick is joined by Nick (Friday Night Gamecast) to begin a critical analysis of Pentiment, a 2022 narrative adventure game from Obsidian Studios. Taking the role of journeyman artist Andreas Mahler, players will navigate the small Bavarian town of Tassing as havoc sweeps the town in the form of murders. A quest to discover who is behind these insidious acts leads to struggles of faith, clashes of class structure, and a reckoning with how history is written - and who writes it. Episode I will cover all of Act I and the first portion of Act II. Please enjoy!

Rick is joined once again by Dave and Matt to conclude the narrative analysis of 1000xRESIST. The themes of the games begin to coalesce as the origins of the Occupants are revealed and secrets of the AllMother are discovered. Sisters must burn. We hope you enjoy!

27 AUG 2024 · We sinned. We sinned and we are still paying for it to this day.
This week, Rick is joined by Dave (Tales from the Backlog) and Matt ("Fun" and Games) for a critical analysis of 1000xRESIST, a work that blends the aesthetics of theatre, philosophy, and lived, human experiences into a striking package. Part I features a broad, non-spoiler discussion on big picture ideas, themes, and mechanics, and continues into an in-depth analysis of the narrative. There's so much to say about this game, and it was clear it needed to be fast-tracked onto the show. We hope you enjoy!
