Episode 38: Kirby’s Adventures with Logan

Ed and his son Logan discuss the evolution of the gameplay and soundtracks from over 25 years of Kirby history.

It’s time for Ed and Logan to embark on a truly epic Kirby adventure! On today’s episode, the father-and-son duo play every main series Kirby game, pick out their favorite musical tracks from each, and discuss the evolution of the pink puffball’s gameplay and soundtracks from over 25 years of Kirby history. They talk about the benefits of “pixelated” versus “smooooth” graphics, remark on the maturity of the soundtracks over the years, and pick out their favorite games and songs at the end of the show. Get ready for music from Jun Ishikawa, Hirokazu Ando, and other veteran Kirby composers!
