We're talking about Baby Steps and many more indie games on episode 82 of the Indie Game Arcade podcast. Baby Steps is an absurdist, physics-based walking-sim / open-world hiking-exploration indie in which you — as a onesie-clad, clumsy protagonist — micromanage each leg in deliberately awkward, QWOP-adjacent locomotion to clumsily scale a misty mountain, blending masocore frustration, sandbox discovery, and deadpan comedy.
