Hello and welcome to the Music Arcade!

On today's episode, Galen "The SoundGuy" Firestone, Ranakel, and Edie Alexsander decide to explore that most dramatic and ominous of moments in gaming history: the time indie games got big.

But not without reminiscing about the old days of Flash games, because it wouldn't be an episode of Music Arcade without at least one of us showing our age.
