A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Easily described as a chibi-Contra, Brave Soldier: Invasion of the Cyborgs is a pleasant run’n gun action title developed by a small indie team and published by EastAsiaSoft. Playing as a cute commando, it is your job to stop an alien invasion of cyborgs that are all palette swapped ninjas. Gameplay remains simple throughout the […]
This week, me and Gillman play through some of the FF XVI demo that just released. The full game comes out next week and the save data transfers to the retail game. During our stream, we discuss RPGs, lame tutorials, and what ever happened to that Suikoden I + II HD remastering?
Defined as an action exploration odyssey, Nocturnal is essentially a Metroidvania without the Metroid. Although there are some environmental puzzles to solve, this quest is more focused on action as opposed to backtracking while keeping the darkness away with a badass flame sword. From the opening cutscene, the dark tone is set, letting the player […]
In the year of our Lord, 2023, McDonald’s commissioned a group of developers to use GB Studio to create a new Gameboy Color game to promote the new purple shake at McDonald’s. WHAT IS HAPPENING!?! In this quick play through, I made it through all 4 levels. The first 2 are skateboarding stages, the 3rd […]
Let’s be honest. You probably never played multiplayer Gameboy games because it is a bit of a hassle – you need link cables, each player their own Gameboy, a compatible game(s), a bunch of batteries. It is a lot of work so going through this hassle of Linking It Up better justify the means. Unfortunately, […]
Chronicles of 2 Heroes is a new action, precision platformer presented in a 16-bit style that sort of looks like a SNES title. The difficulty will keep you on your toes and the character swapping mechanic is unique and demanding. At its heart, this is a Metroidvania but with a stronger emphasis on precision platforming […]
A classic shooter, Laserpitium offers some straightforward gameplay with a higher challenge. Not to be confused with a bullethell, this is a simple shooter with two types of shots and three playable ships each with their own abilities. There is a good amount of variety to the lengthy campaign too. There isn’t an outstanding gimmick […]
A few months ago, emoji Kart Racer was released, a licensed cash grab aiming for the Mario Kart audience. Following in the same footsteps, Rubberduck Wave Racer is another licensed, quickly produced arcadey racer trying to earn a few bucks copying the Mario Kart formula. Unfortunately, the $30 asking price doesn’t not reflect the quality […]
Out of the 1,500+ games released for the Gameboy Advance, just over 100 of them featured a Single-Pak Link multiplayer mode. The Single-Pak Link mode, sometimes referred to as the Multi-boot feature, means that 2-4 players can play a multiplayer game by only needing 1 copy of the game. Each game’s Single-Pak link mode needed […]
Originally released in 1997, Chasm: The Rift was referred to as a poor man’s Quake upon release… that is, if you even knew about it. It flew under my radar back in the late 90s but publisher Sneg thought the time the right to re-release this forgotten FPS. But were they right to do so? […]
