Skies of Arcadia | E15: Chalky Piss / Pissy Chalk [Catacombs]
If you don't like my ship, you can find yourself another one. While you're looking for it, listen to us as we're making dad pay for the hotel room, relaxing after a hard day, finding a dialogue divergence point, making decisions swiftly, clasping hands to boost up a jumper, chasing a pervert across rooftops, pooping straight into hell, completing the countdown to sewer, knowing there's always a way out of a storm, donning dot eyes, narrating the scene, swiping away chalk dust, thinking some poop looks edible, slicing through gelatinous waste, and traveling all the way back to Lower City to see if anyone has anything new to say. I just want you to see something interesting before you die. 00:00:00 Volcano Girls 00:02:19 Intro 00:04:15 Lower Valua Inn 00:14:11 Peeping Thomas 00:17:05 Pervert Interrogation 00:29:50 Lower City 00:33:40 Catacomb Sewers 00:42:06 Bleigock 00:47:39 Better Check On Lower City 00:49:23 Real Net Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com

Skies of Arcadia | E14: Deranged Shitheads [Lower City Valua]
Soup or power, take your pick, what do you want? Perhaps, instead, you would prefer meeting the roster of villains, capturing a citizen of the silver civilization, labeling a pervert, imagining more One Piece comparisons, confining the less fortunate to Lower City, smelling like garbage, drawing bold lines between two classes, meeting the local Big Bag Rascal, refusing to collect trash, losing another smile, realizing Valua is a Button Town, coloring on the ground, eating hard black bread, finding comfort in those who are worse off than ourselves, and calmly exchanging reasonable beliefs about toasting bread. Should I fire my big cannon, baby? 00:00:00 Plushie 00:02:51 Intro 00:04:20 Council of Fucked Up Guys 00:24:50 Landing in Valua 00:27:45 Lower City 00:33:30 Marco 00:36:46 Lower City Indoors 00:46:26 Lower Lower City 00:51:57 Real Net 01:01:33 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com

Skies of Arcadia | E13: I Don't Even Have a Wife [Heading to Valua]
Never take your hands off the wheel until we have come to a complete stop. And before you decelerate, listen to us forgetting Blackbeard was a real guy, trying to remember orally recited directions, trying our very best to figure out ship battles, determining what sort of code a black pirate has, applying the Captain's Stripe, forgetting critical game mechanics, ramming the Little Jack into a canyon wall, jamming moonfish into a bird, vomiting eggs, learning Doc and Maria's lore, suffering through outrageous animations, darkening the world map sky, and throwing corpses off the island. Let's rip 'em to shreds, sir. 00:00:00 Radically Dreaming 00:01:57 Intro 00:04:41 World Mapping 00:08:34 Baltor 00:24:02 Nasr Merchant Escort 00:30:10 Moonfish Dump 00:40:49 Approaching Valua 00:47:35 Real Net 00:53:04 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com

Skies of Arcadia | E12: This Place is a Place [Sailor's Island, Part II]
May the moons guide you in your journey. If that doesn't work, we'll guide you into figuring out Eric is attracted to ladies with green elbow-length gloves, receiving a blown kiss, facing Justice Under God, bestowing merchants with names, learning of the Harpoon Cannon, stealing a guy's money, wearing a dumb guy hat, projecting big dreams on such a little fellow, finding a message in a bottle on a balloon, flipping a mustache, decoding a dirty sock, bargaining with Drachma, seeking a Valuan passport, wondering if Polly is recruitable, cutting a risky deal with a Nasr merchant, and realizing Sailors' Island is just Buc-ee's. All of the stuff from The Temple of Doom is at Hobby Lobby. 00:00:00 Chris Vision 00:01:30 Intro 00:03:55 Sailors' Island Item Shop 00:08:29 Sailors' Island Ship Parts Store 00:13:11 Sailors' Island Armory 00:21:06 Lighthouse 00:23:10 Sailors' Island Inn 00:28:52 Telling Drachma About The Big Gun 00:37:04 Return to Sailors' Guild 00:44:03 Real Net 00:49:17 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com

Skies of Arcadia | E11: Could Be a Dynamite Cop [Sailor's Island, Part I]
I can already tell, this place is lots of fun. If podcasts can be places, we're consulting the large map, meeting a GameCube doctor without borders, mixing pirate fiction with anime, picking up a game-spanning collection initiative, browsing the list of criminals, leaning like an asshole, rolling on the floor laughing, discovering oddities for money, talking about various things, including background tavern commotion, feasting like there's no tomorrow, feeling welcome in a new community, and realizing the old man hates us. How in the Six Moons am I supposed to catch them? 00:00:00 Nintendo Game 00:02:58 Intro 00:05:19 Doc & Maria 00:20:00 Sailors' Island (outdoors) 00:30:32 Sailors' Guild 00:37:10 Polly's Place 00:45:28 Real Net 00:51:13 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com

Skies of Arcadia | E10: A Whale Teeth Conversation [Drachma and the Little Jack]
I pray that the moons watch over you everywhere you go. I also pray that you listen to us talking to the walls that are falling apart, losing Ben the Lookout, making sure we keep knitting, letting Alan fix everything, yearning to topple an empire with a tiny boat, driving my shitboat into danger, dropping in a sky whale, remembering how Chris feels about whales, absorbing a mechanical gut punch, picking up boxes and then putting them back down, and then adding an old man to our party before bringing him home to mom. Stand tall, my son. 00:00:00 Podcaster 00:01:12 Intro 00:02:45 Pirate Island. Again. 00:07:00 Pirate Underground. Again. 00:09:49 Departure Island 00:17:06 World Map / Sudden Storm 00:28:47 Shipwrecked On Another Ship 00:32:54 Moving Boxes 00:46:12 Return to Pirate Island Yet Again 00:48:21 Real net 00:56:05 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com

Skies of Arcadia | E9: The Embrace of Mommy [Armada Attack]
When I die, I want to die in my own home. Ideally while listening to podcasts hosts wondering if piracy is "work," loosening up a little, letting the bodies rot in the sun, measuring a league, donning the quarterback coat, relating Alfonso to Rowd, leaving Granny in the house, polluting vase water, going through Jessica's drawers, thanking the Moons, taking daddies away, punishing piracy with death, fearing Dyne may be a coward, and developing silver moon lore. Mom rarely ever lets this fire go out. 00:00:00 New Studio 00:01:21 Intro 00:03:07 Invasion 00:10:09 The Serpent 00:15:43 Return to Pirate Isle 00:23:49 Pirate Underground 00:38:20 Back at The Serpent 00:45:13 Real Net 00:50:02 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com

Skies of Arcadia | E8: Moonstones are Wifi [Shrine Island]
No one in their right mind would go near the place. This explains why we're climbing a ladder to watch the sunset, aspiring to sail beyond that sunset, debating the moons' effect on brain chemical water, witnessing a shooting star that is also a moon, god blessing the xylophone, wasting Chris' time with crystals, denying ice the color purple, playing with perspective, yearning to shove water out of doors, filling in the map, taking a wild swing with Looper lore, discovering stairs, differing on grinding strategies, and executing a cool hand shake celebration. Be careful, there are all sorts of monsters out there. 00:00:00 The Last Episode (Recorded In This Basement) 00:02:46 Intro 00:04:39 Lookout Island Campfire 00:19:23 Sky Pirate Isle - The Next Day 00:30:22 World Map 00:32:38 Shrine Island 00:44:04 Sentinel 00:53:20 Real Net 01:00:00 Outro Patreon: patreon.com/retroam Bluesky: @retrogradeamnesia.bsky.social YouTube: www.youtube.com/@RetrogradeAmnesia E-Mail: podcast@retrogradeamnesia.com Website: www.retrogradeamnesia.com
