What were Taria & Como's greatest influences? Bionic Commando, right? You'll be surprised!

Jesse Haugen blended the cello mentioned in this clip and its prevalent throughout the whole experience.

Just finished Taria & Como for the #Playdate- an amazing physics-based platformer w/ an all-Black cast w/ characters who have disabilities and tics prominently & proudly addressed! So glad to see #indie #games represent a broader, #inclusive audience in ways AAA games fail to again & again. #gaming

Just finished #Taria&Como on my #playdate. It is such a touching story with loveable characters and so much to say about the healthcare system (and how it infantilizes patients). Bravo @kiphendersonart.bsky.social thank you for sharing your brilliant world with the rest of us!!!

Gameplay GIF of "Taria & Como" for the Playdate handheld console.

A well-written story about disability in a for-profit healthcare corporate hellscape. Fighting back against oppressive systems built to beat you down and keep you there, with a bright, phony smile. Fun, challenging rope-swinging platforming. Taria & Como by @kiphendersonart.bsky.social is excellent!

This is such a good episode.
(I'm allowed to say that, even though I made it, because it's mostly @kiphendersonart.bsky.social and Jesse Haugen being thoughtful and awesome, and I don't even say much!)

Also: it's the final ✨official✨episode for Season Two of the Playdate Podcast! 🥲
