Elsie – PC Review

Elsie is a rougelite, side scrolling, 2d platformer developed by Knight Shift Games and published by Playtonic Friends. I remember finding and playing the demo for Elsie during a recent Steam Nextfest event. At first I thought the game was going to be a Megaman clone. But it completely took me by surprise with the rougelite aspects that makes it enjoyable. If your abuelita offers you a cafecito, YOU...SAY...YES! Gameplay The main plot of Elsie surrounds a certain Dr Grey. Long ago Dr Grey created 5 guardians that would help keep human beings safe from any approaching disasters. These Guardians are powered by a limitless power supply known as the Archlight Core. Some time passes and the Guardians become corrupted. Causing major damage to the world they were created to protect. Dr Grey ...

Akimbot – PC Review

Akimbot is 3D Platform Shooter made by the Evil Raptor with their publisher Plaion. Now you may think this game is a homage to Ratchet and Clank, but boy do I have a surprise for you. The team at Evil Raptor are such big fans of Jak and Daxter, that both Akimbot and their previous title Pumpkin Jack were both greatly shaped by it. Akimbot? More like akimbo with these mouthy robots Gameplay Akimbot is set in a sci-fi world where only robots exist. The game starts with our main characters Exe and Shipset under lock and key. Turns out this chaotic duo are being delivered to a mob boss because of the price on their heads.

Ario – PC Review

Ario, developed by Vata Games and published by Artax Games, plunges players into a vivid yet troubled world. Ario tells the story of a young warrior named Ario, who embarks on a perilous journey to rescue his mother from the clutches of dark forces. What begins as a quest to reunite with his missing parent soon becomes an epic battle against nightmares, curses, and a host of demonic enemies. With its combination of action, platforming, and tower defence elements, Ario attempts to carve out a niche in the crowded 2.5D action-adventure genre. But does it succeed? Ario, this game needed some more air yo. What really stands out in Ario is the vibrant art style and dark atmosphere. It does a great job of creating a world filled with tension and mystery, making exploration genuinely exciting...

Cattie – Switch Review

Cattie is a Retro Action Platforming game developed by Vergiu Games. The game was originally released on Steam on Nov 14th, 2023. Now thanks to EastAsiaSoft and their porting wizardry, the game is available on Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S, and the PlayStation 4/PlayStation 5. Time to be paw-ful of where you pounce Gameplay Cattie is your normal platformer except you play as Cattie the cat. You may ask: why is Cattie surrounded by death and peril? I honestly don't know. The game itself is linear with no story. But this fact is actually a positive in my opinion. Anyone can make up an epic backstory for Cattie. And no one will be wrong. Throughout my playthrough I came up with two narratives. My first being that Cattie is stuck in a VR testing facility. And the second is that curiosi...
