I suddenly thought--what if there were a Street Fighter 6 DLC pack that’s all Final Fight characters

Then I thought--what if they did this during the alleged Final Fight remake

KoS Chapter 31 is up!

This canon-divergent, ship-’em-all-the-fans-will-know-their-own, meteorstuck longfic classic hadn’t updated in quite some time.  UNTIL IT JUST DID!

Those of you who have been following me awhile for fic know that I have nothing but praise for KoS.  I don’t think it’s an exaggeration to call it a sister fic to R^4, in that @laurasauras and I are both exploring premises of dreambubble shenanigans-driven alternate endings to Homestuck that honor the madcap feel and narrative logic of the original, and have both been inspired big-time by each other’s work in doing so.  In that respect my opinion is clearly biased, but I don’t think that’s enough to invalidate it.

Our Favorite Sci-Fi Audio Dramas

The producers of PURE are big fans of audio drama podcasts. Some of the best sci-fi serialized stories are being told today in audio form. And because this genre of storytelling is more logistically accessible to creators, great stories are being told that may never have been able to come to fruition otherwise. Here is a fun, little list of some of our favorite sci-fi audio dramas that we highly recommend.

Wolf 359 by Kinda Evil Genius Productions Set on board the U.S.S. Hephaestus space station, the dysfunctional crew deals with daily life-or-death emergencies, while searching for signs of alien life and discovering there might be more to their mission than they thought.

Life/After by GE’s Podcast Theater, written by Mac Rogers A man attempts to cope with his wife’s sudden death only to find himself hooked on and haunted by her old audio posts on social media. 

Limetown by Two Up Productions Ten years ago, over three hundred men, women and children disappeared from a small town in Tennessee, never to be heard from again. A reporter explores what happened to the people of Limetown and gets wrapped up in a conspiracy no one could have imagined. 

EOS 10 by Justin McLachlan The hilarious stories of two maladjusted doctors and their medical team aboard an intergalactic travel hub on the edges of deep space — along with a deposed prince who's claimed the food court kitchen as his new throne.

Steal the Stars by Tor Labs, written by Mac Rogers Two government employees guarding the biggest secret in the world: a crashed UFO, fall in love and decide to escape to a better life on the wings of an incredibly dangerous plan.

Ars Paradoxica by Mischa Stanton, written by Daniel Manning and various guest writers When an experiment in time goes horribly awry, Dr. Sally Grissom finds herself stranded in the past and entrenched in the activities of a clandestine branch of the US government.

Tanis by the Public Radio Alliance & Minnow Beats Whale As a podcast host pursues what he thinks might be one of modern society’s last true mysteries hidden in obscure works of science fiction, he stumbles across a world that bridges the gap between sci-fi and fantasy. 

Rabbits by the Public Radio Alliance & Minnow Beats Whale  Carly Parker attempts to find her missing friend Yumiko, who seems to have vanished while playing the most complex alternate reality game of all time.

The Strange Case of Starship Iris by Procyon Podcasts, created by Jessica Best In 2189, Earth narrowly won a war against extraterrestrials, but at a tremendous price. Two years later, in a distant patch of space, a mysterious explosion kills nearly the entire crew of the science vessel Starship Iris. The only survivor is Violet Liu, an intrepid, sarcastic, terrified biologist.

Welcome to Night Vale by Nightvale Presents, written by Joseph Fink & Jeffrey Cranor A radio show host presents community updates for a small desert town, featuring local weather, announcements from the Sheriff's Secret Police, mysterious lights in the night sky, dark hooded figures with unknowable powers, and cultural events.

MarsCorp by Definitely Human A clever comedy following Station Supervisor E.L. Hob’s first year at MarsCorp, a terraforming colony established on the red planet in 2070.

The Bright Sessions by Lauren Shippen A mysterious psychologist provides therapy for patients with supernatural abilities as their struggles, discoveries, and motivations are revealed. Disclaimer: Of course we’re biased because our two lead actors, Julia Morizawa and Briggon Snow star in this audio drama. But it’s still one of our favorites.

And there are many more! Please share your favorite sci-fi audio dramas so we can find more great content too.
