This week we are joined by the one and only Victoria Tran from Innersloth! She joins us in talking about what it’s like working in the game industry, mental health, burnout and finding joy in playing games; but also about some of the best snacks around. We also have some chats about a lot of not-game stuff, like Urban Exploration and Andre’s Manga Minute!
