Starting as a simple shooter then slowly evolving into something mind-blowing, I think it's safe to say that Genome Guardian is epic stuff. đšī¸
As one of the cutest and most laidback Metroidvanias I've played, I can easily recommend Jumper Jon to anyone looking for a breezy time. đģ
I had a lot of fun traversing room after room as I shot adversaries with my ever-expanding arsenal so I'm sure you'll enjoy Star of Providence. đ
After the gameplay really sunk in, I ended up having a blast with WARRIORS: Abyss but it definitely won't be everyone's cup of tea. âī¸
As a fan of the first game, I'm very happy that Snezhinka exists as it's an improved iteration of an already great shooting formula. đ¤
X-Out: Resurfaced is one of the easiest shoot 'em ups that I've ever played but its ship customisation is so fun that it's still a solid game. đ¸
Smashing your opponent around destructible stages can be quite entertaining but this quick-time-based brawlfest doesn't have much longevity. đ
With explosive combat, rewarding exploration, and old-school lighthearted vibes, there's a lot to love about METAL SUITS: Counter-attack. đ¤
Destructure: Among Debris is an incredibly fun and challenging brick-breaker that unfortunately suffers from some truly irritating bugs. đĨ
While Desvelado's protagonist was happy to make it back to their beloved coffin, I was kind of sad for it meant my time with them was already over.
I'm very happy to now have remastered editions of the first 6 Tomb Raider games even if those included in this collection aren't of the same level of quality as the iconic first 3. The poor lighting and lack of extras doesn't help but they're still highly enjoyable games overall. đē
I love indies that offer hilarity and Tiny Terry's Turbo Trip is one such game that'll have you laughing so much that your face will catch fire. đ
Momodora: Moonlit Farewell is a great Metroidvania that nails the basics of the genre while offering an unforgettably stylish world. đ
Panel de Pon games don't get much better than Spirit Swap: Lofi Beats to Match-3 To which will have you gaily tapping your toes for hours. â¤ī¸
It may be a unique game and strategising can be fun but the randomness of Luck be a Landlord makes it more mindless than it could be. đ°
With a more gameplay-focused and varied campaign as well as a phenomenally unforgettable cast of stand-out characters, The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak II really scratched a lot of itches for me that I didn't even know I had. Or was that Nadia's needles? âī¸
It's true that MACROSS -Shooting Insight- is very been-there-done-that but at the same time, the sense of variety when it comes to both its gameplay and its stellar soundtrack make it an overall enjoyable experience. đŠâđ¤
Under Defeat is such a challenging explosion-filled shoot 'em up that it's hard to put it down, especially with its distinct modes and helicopters to pilot. Throw in flashy visuals and a great soundtrack and you have one radical arcade shooter. đ
Slowly unpacking the elaborate game world of Botany Manor provides a super-rewarding puzzle-infused adventure that's delightfully chill. đĄ
Laika: Aged Through Blood caters to a hardcore audience in more ways than one but those who love it will certainly love it a lot. đē
