Ep. 49 – Summer of Arcade: Blasting Through Galaga & Space Invaders!
Get ready, retro fans—The Terrible Gamers Podcast is back with Episode 49, continuing our Summer of Arcade series! This week, Kevin and Kyle dive into two of the most iconic and legendary arcade games of all time: Space Invaders and Galaga.
Join us as we fire up the classic cabinets (virtually, of course) and revisit these alien-blasting, high-score-chasing masterpieces. We talk gameplay mechanics, the evolution of the shoot ’em up genre, why Galaga’s power-up system was way ahead of its time, and how Space Invaders laid the foundation for the golden age of arcades.
Whether you're an old-school arcade junkie, a retro game collector, or just love hearing passionate banter about pixelated perfection, this episode is a must-watch. We even toss in some hilarious commentary, gaming memories, and a few terrible opinions along the way—classic Terrible Gamers style.
