The latest release by Sometimes You, Arkan: The Dog Adventurer takes classic Arkanoid (single player Pong) and turns it into a thoughtful twin-stick shooter. The approach is so simple but yet so effective it is a wonder why this formula has not been demonstrated previously. Playing as a wizard Shiba Inu, the goal is to […]

BitMaster (Xbox One) Review with streamBitMaster is a new twin stick shooter by Sometimes You. It only costs $5 but unfortunately plays like an action game built on a tight budget. From a maze-like environment, the goal is to kill all the plainly designed geometric shapes until the boss appears. The concept is simple enough but gameplay falters at every […]

Escape from Life Inc (Xbox One) ReviewMade by a 15 year old developer and published by Sometimes you, Escape from Life Inc is a Lost Vikings-style puzzle platformer with a comedic narrative. The graphical presentation looks like it was created in MS Paint but don’t let the visuals be distracting as this 3-5 hour romp plays better than you might assume. […]

Dungeons & Bombs (Xbox One) ReviewContinuing their trend of releasing adorably cute short-burst arcade style games, Sometimes You has released Dungeons & Bombs, a puzzle game that seems to run on the Explosive Jake engine. Although it might look like a Bomberman clone from screenshots, this is a trial and error puzzle game through and through. Playing as a knight […]

Active Neurons 3 – Wonders of the World (Xbox One) ReviewWhen Sometimes You released Active Neurons in early 2020, I would have never predicted it would spawn a sequel just a few months later. Now, just a few months after the release of Active Neurons 2, Sometimes You released Active Neurons 3 because apparently they still had some gas left in the tank. Although it […]

I, AI (Xbox One) Review with streamPublished by Sometimes You, I, AI is a vertical shooter with a leveling mechanic. Although not as balanced as Aircraft Evolution, this old school action game is fluid and rewards skilled players. Playing as a self-aware AI, the first stage has an electric spark escaping from a space station prison and overtaking a space craft. […]

While I personally am not a fan of visual novels as I like more game in my games, fans of the genre should appreciate the story, the vivid visuals, and slight adventure game mechanics. The […]

Swordbreaker The Game (Xbox One) ReviewOriginally released in 2015 on PC, Swordbreaker The Game has made its way onto current gen consoles thanks to publisher Sometimes You. A digital “choose your own adventure” book, the player is only selecting options available from a menu but is treated to some nice artwork, a cheesy story, and numerous branching paths. Playing as […]
