Happy Halloween!
Yup, you read that right! P-a-r-s-e-l-y, as in computer parseing! Parsely is all about old school style text adventures, and today Alex, our parser, has created a text adventure for friend of the podcast and resident computer nerd, Elana! Listen as our protagonist wanders, dies, repeats and dies again in this episode of One Hour One Offs, all accompanied live by the brilliant pianist Kevin.
Also, sorry Elana is a little quiet <3

This episode follows Sam Kriegsman as he audio-journals the significant events of his 8-week shift as a park ranger at Evergreen Wilds national park.

Join Lyrica as Mirabell and Alex as everyone else as we delve into the fantasy world of spooky mice. Mirabell is the apprentice (called a spade) to the local digger - the grizzled old mouse who keeps folks safe from the malevolent forces of the wild, especially when those forces are mystic or arcane. The Oakhills, a nearby family of squirrels have requested the digger's help, and he has decided Mirabell is ready for their first mission. Now it's up to them to face the mischievous (or perhaps dangerous) creature that has been spoiling the Oakhill's food, but neither she nor the digger are ready for what they will find.
(also we forgot to say in the intro but the system is Monster of the Week)

Firstly, no the title isn't a typo, listen to the episode and you'll understand. Now, welcome to the first episode with the full One Hour One Offs crew! Join Lyrica, Derek, Blake, and Alex as we fight, flee, and laugh our way through Tale of the Manticore's new system One Shot In the Dark. Our party of pierless heroes, Xol, Bartholomew, Jim, and Steve, pit themselves against the legally distinct forces of Becna in a race against the clock. They are in it to save the world (or for the money if you're Xol), but there's only one hour before the cavern collapses. Will our pitiable party prevail? Or Perish!

Join Alex and Lyrica as they laugh and cry their way through a game of Lazers and Feelings! Follow the story of our hero JC Barnes (played by Lyrica) as she seeks redemption for her Ma's scientific reputation by investigating the solar system Anatolius: the site of a discovery JC's Ma made, but which led to the end of her career when the discovery was discredited. Little does JC know, that the discovery was abandoned for reasons other than she knows.
***Also Anatolius means sunrise, not sunlight we got that wrong in the episode

Join just Alex in this episode as he gets a little drunk and writes bad poetry about a badass highway robber. Is he a justified lover? A deranged killer? Horny for his gun? Find out inside. This episode features The Gentleman Bandit, a system by Allison Arth. This system prompts the player to write dramatic (very dramatic in this case) poems left by a highway bandit at the scenes of his crimes.

Join Bart (Alex) and Thaumazor (Blake) for a cheerful romp in the lands of Arken Eld, a verdant civilization built on the ruins of a fallen empire. The system of the day is Icon, the latest work from the creators of Lancer and Slay Six Billion Demons. *note: Derek gets some rather important rules wrong in here, but it should still be a fun introduction to the vibes and vocations of Icon.

CW: Language (episode pretty much begins with the word butthole), combat, drugs/alcohol.
Its unlucky number 13. Heathen is a planet dedicated to one thing, and one thing only. Metal. Now we're not talking gold, aluminum, steel, type metal, we're talking head banging, guitar thrashing, stage jumping metal. Every day 4 million necks are broken headbanging, and the mosh pits could level cities of lesser planets. Join Derf Star, and Lopter Bloom as they make their way to main stage to rock the world, but the citizens of Heathen wont make it easy. Can our duo prove they're metal?

Its finals week, and at Kevin Hide’s School for Sneaks and Heroes that means a face off, a showdown, a duel between desperadoes for superiority that only one of you may leave alive! At least that's what seniors tell the freshmen. Its a showdown for sure, every student is paired with another from a different class with each of them using their skills to the utmost in order to achieve victory - and a passing grade. Will our stoned student of Vecna be able to defeat the traps his 'Splosions class peer has set up for him? Probably not, he's very high and didn't study.
(PS this episode has a guest, and just for kicks we didnt tell each other anything about what we were planning ahead of time.... which is part of why it makes no sense.)

Magnum Cordite is a lone gun, a private eye, and a man on the edge. Magnum also has a blessing, or a curse depends on who you ask. If he's killed, iced, ganked, ya know, vamoosed, then he gets one hour to solve his own murder. If he does, he gets to live, if not..... well let's just say it's a long trip down. Will Magnum be able to solve the case or is he dead, doomed, and damned?
We are super excited to announce our first shoutout!
