A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Maximum Entertainment and Abiding Bridge released Sclash, an easy to play but difficult to master 2D samurai 1-v-1 fighting game. The gimmick revolves around tension and split-second decision making as each bout is loaded with drama as death comes from a single strike. Visually, the hand-drawn Japanese calligraphy art-style is impressive and carries weight. Instead […]
Originally released on Dreamcast, Rainbow Cotton is now easily accessible on all modern platforms thanks to ININ and Success. As a point of reference, Panorama Cotton, Cotton 100%, Cotton Fantasy: Superlative Night Dreams, and Cotton Reboot have all been re-released over the last couple years. Personally, I welcome the revival of this cult franchise. To […]
Zombies, Aliens, & Guns is a simple action shooter that has similar gameplay to classic Smash TV. The dual analog control scheme, constant onslaught of baddies (aliens and zombies), and a health/weapon system on a cooldown timer means that the action always stays at the forefront. Instead of venturing through one larger interconnected map like […]
Published by EastAsiaSoft with a five-dollar asking price, Ratyrinth is a simple but pleasant short-burst platformer. The hour-long quest is loaded with easy Achievements and basic yet appreciated gameplay. Playing as rat, the goal is to reach the end of each stage without bumping into a hazard – your typical platforming gameplay. The gimmick comes […]
Space Mercenary Defense Force is a five-dollar Vampire Survivors clone published by EastAsiaSoft. The biggest difference is that this auto-shooter takes place in space, and you defend against aliens instead of ghouls. Beginning as a slow-moving spaceship with a pea shooter, the player gains access to new weaponry and upgrades as gold, which is obtained […]
This week, me and Gillman play some Eiyuden Chronicle on Xbox GamePass, talk Suikoden, and the state of the game industry.
Published by EastAsiaSoft, the company known for releasing bite-sized games at affordable prices that are loaded with easy big-point Achievements, has released Flightpath: Adventures in Venaris, a game that mostly goes against their norm. Although the price point is still low, this is a meater game, one that actually makes the player work to unlock […]
In case you couldn’t tell from the title, SokoFrog is a simple, cutesy Sokoban block pushing puzzle game. It only costs five dollars, doesn’t take long to unlock all 2,000 Achievement points, and offers some casually mild entertainment along the way. Playing as the frog, it is your job to push the key block onto […]
Released last year on PC, Outer Terror might be easily described as another Vampire Survivors clone but with more story and mission objectives tied to the narrative. This is a randomized auto-shooter based around survival, killing a ton of monsters, and leveling up along the way. Broken down into episodes, each stage can be tackled […]
Essentially a glorified Sokoban game, Knowledge Keeper offers plenty of single player puzzle solving for five bucks. Playing as a tiny robed wizard character thing that walks like he is in an early South Park episode, it is your jobs to flip switches, walk through teleporters, push boxes, avoid water/pits, change colors, and collect the […]
