A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
A twin-stick action roguelike with bullethell properties, Mystic Gate is a decent game if you are not exhausted of the entirely overused rogue genre. Published by EastAsiaSoft, this ten-dollar digital download provides plenty of entertainment if you have the tenacity to get good. Like most other games in the rogue genre, the difficulty is set […]
Did you know there are secret animations when using a Super Gameboy?Eight of the ten borders/frames feature charming animation if you left the controller go idle for a certain amount of time. To access the Super Gameboy menu, hit the L+R shoulder buttons when using a SGB. Here are all the animations, captured in HD […]
Containing the same visual style and gameplay of EastAsiaSoft’s ThunderKid series, Escape from Terror City is a 3rd person gallery shooter. The purposely designed low-poly look provides a retro feel. This low-cost digital download doesn’t just look like a old game, it plays like one too specifically when it comes to the difficulty. The first […]
This week, Gillman and I play through the opening of EastAsiaSoft’s Mugen Souls Z on Switch, a port of the PS3 original. Since we distracted ourselves in conversation, we got killed during the opening Mech battle and had to restart. But we eventually figured it out once we started actually paying attention.
Playing as lone soldier tasked with fighting an army of aliens in space, Gastro Force is a straightforward retro FPS but with a player friendly mapping system. Unfortunately, Gastro Force is unplayable for me because I am a Y-axis inverter and there is no option to invert the controls in the options menu. Even […]
Originally released on PC about a year ago, Ashina: The Red Witch is a text-heavy adventure game now available on console. It is a pixelated journey about visiting the land of the afterlife, searching for your sister, and trying to cooperate with a mischievous spirit who stole your pendant. This spirit also likes to use […]
An unfortunate design of the Analogue Pocket is that is the Gameboy multiplayer link port is on the bottom of the handheld, right next to the USB-C charging/docking input. So when using an Analogue Pocket DOCK, the user loses access to the Gameboy link port since the dock doesn’t have any link port extension/pass-through.
Unlike the weirdly experimental Neko Secret Room and the bizarre open world-style Neko Secret Homecoming, Neko Journey is a 2.5D platformer. Developed by a small team and published by EastAsiaSoft, this latest Neko title lacks polish and direction. Borrowing assets from other games created by this developer, like Drunken Fist 2 for example, the visuals […]
Inspired by the Rubik’s Cube, The Shape of Things is a relaxing, casual puzzle game designed around a cozy environment. With no way to lose and no penalty for failure, this go-at-your-own-pace puzzler is all about rotating parts of a 3D object to make it whole. From backpacks, to headphones, to a nest of bird […]
This week, Gillman and I play Scarlet Tower, a Vampire Survivors clone while talking about recent games we are playing. Honestly, we just wanted to catch up because it has been a few weeks since we last streamed.
