Welcome back to Gotta Game For You, where we always have a game lined up just for you! Come join Meghan, Lina and Shelby for a very special episode where we check out everything at Summer Game Fest!

In part two of our special Summer Game Fest 2025 episode, Meghan and Shelby are continuing their coverage with more games and exclusives!

First up, we’re checking out Escape Academy 2, the sequel to the hit puzzle adventure where every class is an escape room designed to make you think under pressure. You’ll return to the academy to tackle new lessons that blend puzzle-solving with a full-on school experience.

Next we checked out Meghan’s most anticipated game at Summer Game Fest, Petal Runner. Petal Runner is a slice-of-life RPG set in the neon city of Sapphire Valley. You play as Cali, a scooter courier training alongside your HanaPet companion Kira to deliver and repair flower-powered energy cells that keep the city alive. Play mini-games, explore cozy districts, and meet the people who make this world feel alive.

Lastly, we’re looking at Lego Party, a brand new board-game style party game that mixes dice rolls, mini-games, and items with Lego’s signature humor and brick-building charm. You’re literally building the board as you play! This time we’re joining Meghan at home along with Lina and friends Gemzape and CozyTeaGames for a more cozy experience.

We’re also sharing exclusive developer interviews with some of the teams— including Wyatt Bushnell and Mike Salyh from Coin Crew Games (Escape Academy 2) and Brandon Greer and Danny Guo from Nano Park Studios (Petal Runner) with this being their very first game!

There’s still more to see from Summer Game Fest 2025 including game demos, new releases, and game dev stories — and this is just Part Two of our coverage. We demoed 18 games and interviewed 12 developers, and we can’t wait to share it all with you!

Also shout out to our patrons on Patreon, where we’ve been posting extended episodes, weekly gameplay episodes of our playthrough of Split Fiction, as well as monthly streams directly to you!
