A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
In 2019, Fatbot Games released the original Vaporum. Not knowing what to expect from this unknown IP, I was pleasantly surprised by the addictive 1st person grid-based gameplay. Vaporum – Lockdown is a sequel but takes place before the events of the first game even though gameplay is almost identical. Playing as a daughter looking […]
SHING!, released by Mass Creation and PixelHeart, is a side-scrolling beat’em up brawler that deserves a bit of recognition for trying something new even though its stand-out feature results in its biggest downfall. Instead of tapping buttons to perform light and strong attacks, all fighting is handled by knocking the right analog stick. This is […]
With the help of Code Mystics, SNK has been releasing NeoGeo Pocket Color games on the Switch eShop over the last several months, trickling their releases leading up to the spectacular Match of the Millennium. Now available in one bundled compilation, the NeoGeo Pocket Selection Vol.1 includes all the previous eShop releases plus four more. […]
At the time of this post, Super Mario Bros. 35 will be shutting down forever in just a couple weeks as Nintendo closes Mario’s anniversary. As a way to remember this free to play Switch Online game, we decided to stream it to bid a fond farewell.

Originally released on mobile devices and PC a couple years ago, Summer Catchers by Noodlecake has been ported to Switch. Best described as an adventure endless runner, there are some interesting gameplay concepts here but winds up being a lesson in frustration. You play as a little girl on a quest to see a warm […]
Developed by Decemberborn and published by Elden Pixels of Alwa’s Awakening fame, Cathedral is an 8-bit Metroidvania that follows all the tropes of the genre. In the end, it isn’t anything you have not seen before but that doesn’t mean the journey isn’t worth taking. Playing as a non-speaking knight on a quest to open […]
Liberated is literally a comic book game but not in the typical cape-wearing Marvel or DC movie sense. Instead, this downloadable title has a lot more in common with V For Vendetta as you play as Neo-like character who joins a group of liberators trying to free the world from the government’s spying eyes. Although […]
Let’s make this short and sweet. SNK Vs Capcom: The Match of the Millennium has to be the best handheld fighting game of all time. If you owned a Neogeo Pocket Color back in the day, chances are you had MotM and encouraged all your friends to get it too. Thanks to the efforts of […]
