Welcome to another episode of Retrotopia: Another Video Game Podcast. This is a show where we, Alan, Brian, and Sam, get together to discuss video games from years gone by. We like to look at video games from the perspective of lifelong gamers and how they hold up in the retro sphere.

This week we are discussing Home Alone, a Super Nintendo Entertainment System game released in 1991 that adapts the hit holiday film into a side-scrolling action game where players control Kevin McCallister as he defends his house from the Wet Bandits by setting traps, rescuing valuables, and navigating multiple wings of the house all to place the valuables in one of four McCallister house safes.

RetroBytes is the show where the three of us sit down, crack open some random video game topics, and let the conversation run wild. Every episode is part nostalgia trip, part heated debate, and part comedy show we never rehearsed. This week, we’re diving into Black Friday and Christmas wants, we took games as suggested by our listeners and recreated them using a different genre, and we discuss the Game of the Year nominees. We’re unpacking the stories, quirks, and memories that make them worth talking about. You can join in on the fun FOR FREE over at patreon.com/retrotopia where you can get this show 15 DAYS EARLY with an extra topic and much more.
