Yo, what's up?

Welcome to the Kind of Funny Gamescast for Thursday, August 7th, 2025.

I'm one of your host, Blessing.

Adioia Jr.

Join me is Abu Salim, aka the founder and CEO of Surgent Studios.

Abu,

thank you so much for joining me once again on the show.

Yeah,

we've had you before on Game Showdown,

and I forget if you've been on a Gamescast episode before,

but I'm happy to have a conversation with you today.

I mean,

maybe,

I don't know, bro.

I just rock up and show up and

hope everything goes well. So I'm sure a bit about, no, I know I definitely have done a lot with you guys. So thank you very much for having me here, man. Yeah. Well, I mean, I'm super excited to talk to you. You know, we were talking about it a little bit before the show, but me and Barrett played dead take on stream on

Friday and it took up

our entire afternoon and all

this very... the show, but me and Barrett played a dead take on stream on Friday, and it took up our entire afternoon, and I was very, one, me and Bear had such a good time playing the game, right? But then, I was very, um, uh, not surprised, I guess, but like, I saw so much response in the comments saying, oh, this is such a fun stream.

Man, I would love to see these guys talk to the devs about the game.

And so it just happened to coincide perfectly where you hit up Tim and mentioned that, like you were down to come on the show to talk about the game a bit.

And so this is all a perfect storm.
