Episode 475: Jumping Flash! & Exact (Patreon)

Your patron-exclusive episode this week is also a patron-request episode. That's wild! But not as wild as this week's topic: Jumping Flash! and, by extension, developer Exact. Patron Scott Rothman absolutely twisted our arm to make us (that's myself, aka Jeremy Parish, and Todd "kidfenris" Ciolek) talk about a series and studio we love. 

Although the bulk of this conversation revolves around Robbit (mon dieu!), we cover the full span of Exact's career, beginning with their early X68000 obscurities and ending with their high-profile PS1 hit Ghost in the Shell. It's a hoppin' good time.
