So far GlitchSPANKR is probably the one that wowed me the most; played its demo during Next Fest and it's absolutely bonkers. Comes out today, btw.

Been looking back at some of my screenshots from FF7 Rebirth and I still can't believe this game is real. Like what the hell man.

1997 me would be losing his mind over this. To be fair, 2025 me is also losing his mind over this, lol.

Just finished the demo of Silly Polly Beast by @anjigames.bsky.social, it was hella cool. Protag is cute. It's kind of a mix between top-down shooter and survival horror. Protag is cute btw. Would recommend. Comes out this month!

(P.S. Protag cute)

I reviewed The Lacerator:

What the hell did I just play. (complimentary) An absolutely wild experience that's part survival horror, part grindhouse schlock and part SWERY/SUDA51-style madness.

Review: Space Adventure Cobra - The Awakening

Ended up enjoying this quite a bit. Fast-paced levels, fun combat, lots of optional content. A solid game despite its occasionally janky controls.

We're doing Throwback... Tuesday, I guess!

Quite fittingly, episode 7 of my indie developer interview series highlighted Mirage 7, the fantasy/sci-fi game developed by the Italian studio Drakkar Dev!

I like how I always have to go and do detective work on the internet to figure out where new gear/items can be obtained every time a new XIV patch drops. Because the actual patch notes refuse to tell you, lol.

Co-op indie horror review: Macabre

A promising concept (Alien: Isolation-esque hide & seek in a semi-open jungle), executed poorly. I can see the potential, but right now, it feels extremely dull and boring.
