One part visual novel with one part futuristic racer, Nirvana is basically the same game as the original Switch release, fully titled Nirvana: Pilot Yume, only without the explicit content. Unfortunately, both the visual novel and racing segments are not particularly polished, creating more frustration than fun. Although the art style in the visual novel […]
This week, Gillman and I increase our bust size by playing some Seven Pirates H, a new RPG by EastAsiaSoft ($40). It is rather ridiculous but sort of refreshing to play a traditional turn-based RPG… even if the premise is over-the-top. At least they don’t shy away from their source materials, leaning into the theme […]
Over the last year, ININ Games and SUCCESS have released several Cotton titles on current gen hardware. These fan favorite shmups are causes for excitement as playing these original games on their original hardware is next to impossible thanks to very small print runs. Now, thanks to the magic of digital distribution (with some physical […]
Originally released on Steam a year ago, Mokoko X has been ported to Xbox consoles after raising Kickstarter money. It is another Qix clone, aka “fill in the background picture by connecting lines while avoiding enemies” action arcade game but at least this one has some detail. In fact, this game has a totally absurd […]

Cosmos Bit is a simple, cute Metroid-like that can be completed under two hours. This charming little adventure proves that big things can come in small packages. If it wasn’t for the hand drawn banner marketing art, you wouldn’t be able to tell the tiny pixel sprite of a main character is female as there […]
Dandy & Randy DX can probably be most easily described as a Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past-lite. It is a wholesome, highly entertaining experience beginning to end, making it a perfect campaign for youngsters, newbies to the top-down action/adventure genre, and even longtime fans. If you watch just a couple minutes of […]
Instead of a monkey trap inside a ball like Sega’s popular Monkeyball franchise, Marble Maid features a creepily designed anime maid trapped inside an orb, tasked with touching literal dust “bunnies” in stages that remind of the pyramid from Q-bert. Platforming in a ball is never accurate since you are always rolling, hunting down these […]
Like Trials on a treadmill diorama, Rolling Car is part platformer, part balance simulator. The goal is to guide a monster truck to the end of each stage, avoiding hazards and making jumps while maintaining balance and proper momentum, all from a treadmill level design. Although there are easy-to-see Trials inspirations, this is definitely not […]
