Description

Be your own boss, dad said. Make your own decisions, dad said. Well dad, today I finally did it. Today I'm not only my own boss, today I'm an Overboss. And I don't event have to pay self-employment tax. Today it's Aaron Mesburne and Kevin Russ' Overboss, a pixelated followup by designer of beloved tile-layer Calico. Then it's the aspects of a game that make us bring it out 20, 30, 40, 50 times to play. What makes a game replayable?We're a very relistenable podcast!
