Is that a new Papers, Please style game from Alawar I spot?

It appears they're going for a Papers meets SCP game and considering they make mostly indie darlings, I couldn't be more excited.

Today I Played: Retro Rewind

I have found there is reason this game is sitting at overwhelmingly positive, you run a family video store back when VHS was King, you can decorate how you want and you can even put real shows on your work tv, it's addictive as hell.

Sorry about the quiet for some days now, i've been knee deep in Death Stranding 2!

But check out this new 1-8 player co-op RPG game, it caught my eye and will be something I show my group for us to check out.

Today I Played: Ground Zero

It's out! And to the reviews saying it's under baked, I just have to ask, what the fuck were you playing?

This game is awesome, it has unlocks, multiple characters, multiple paths, voice acting, fixed camera angles, give it a go!

There's been a rather large uptick in horror fishing games lately and I for one am happy to see it, this one looks to be on track so far to be a pretty solid entry into the genre.

Today I Played: The Last Caretaker

There's a couple of Indie short films that could explain the feeling of this game better than I have the character limit for, if you want to know what this is like, go watch "Green Light" or "Beyond Us - A Story After The Collapse."

Eyyy, we're getting a Kart maker-esque game!

I'm not sure about it having no online racing, but it's a solo dev and they gave us a win for the couch gaming community at least, it'll also have workshop enabled!

Today I Played: Darwin's Paradox

I've had my eye on this for awhile, I finally got around to playing it and it was exactly what I wanted, a short (maybe 4 hour long) platformer with some puzzles and chuckles along the way.

(Sorry, it's been a hot minute!)

What Am I Looking Forward To?:
Fable, Ground Zero, Mad King Redemption, Blight Survival

So three of these are relatively Indie, one of these not so much but these are games that for one reason or another refuse to leave my brain and I urge checking them out when you can.

Today I Played - Starship Troopers: Ultimate Bug War!

So if Terrand Command is the RTS, Extermination is the 'somewhat' tactical FPS, then Bug War is the unabashed arcade title.

It's not too entirely long but it packs a lot of chaos in a little box, would recommend.

Today I Played: Smile For Me

This is definitely a WTF did I just play kind of game, but I kind of don't mind it cause of how much absurdity there is in the game.

It's like a puzzle game with unsettling undertones, but nothing that ever becomes too in your face.

No Seriously Eyes On: BANDIT KNIGHT

After having played the playtest for awhile I can actually tell you right now, this game would've fit in on the Dreamcast and that's a major compliment, it's timer based but incredibly fun and addictive.

Today I Played - Greak: Memories of Azur

I found this adventure platformer during the women's day sale for $4, it's a touching story between siblings that doesn't overstay its welcome at about 6-8 hours, I think pacing made it feel slightly shorter but I recommend it.

So like if they don't manage to at least somewhat meet Shredder's Revenge or SoR4, I just end up feeling like "well this is okay, but i'd rather be doing this." it somewhat ruined this one for me and it also ruined the Power Rangers one for me.

1 month ago 0 0 0 0

The thing that really kills bigger budgeted beat em ups for me now, is that I have a certain barometer for quality thanks to Shredder's Revenge, or Streets of Rage 4.

There's also OpenBOR fan made ones that take that bar and set it even higher, but I understand that zero deadlines afford them that.

If you're not into walking simulators this may not be your jam, i've always felt they typically deliver structured stories incredibly well, this one is about three soldiers creating a bond and surviving the horrors of war.

I'm genuinely not even going to talk about the story here, because I want you to experience these two games.

They're gorgeous, their soundtracks are ah-mazing and they call themselves an odyssey and it bloody well delivers on it.

I would like to add onto this, this wasn't even a response to my feedback, this dev response was enough to stop me from trying what otherwise looked like a gorgeous Indie title.

I only didn't make this a game to avoid post/link it out of respect to the other creator on the team.
