From 2006 on it's the same Mario.
The history of 2D Mario.
Nintendo shared this I think when Super Mario Bros. Wonder was coming out, but I really like this image a lot.

I love Double Fine but their newest game Keeper was almost not a 'keeper' for me.

I just finished episode 8 of Dispatch.
What a game, one of the best superhero stories I've ever seen.
It's a 10/10 for me!
Episodic gaming is back baby!!

Keeper is a stunning game but the gameplay and story are lacking, with the first two hours of the game almost making me refund it on Steam.
It gets better along the way, but this game will not be making it onto my game of the year list.

Keeper Review- Can a piece of art be a great video game?
With its stunning visuals and Double Fine pedigree, I had hoped Keeper could be a game of the year contender. However, though it looks stunning, can a piece of art really make a great video game?…

I'm trying something new with my YouTube Shorts!
It's about Messenger, a short, free indie game that you play in your BROWSER with some gorgeous art.
Check out the short if you can and let me know if you are going to try out the game.

I loved Pokemon Legends: Z-A but there are a few things Game Freak could have done better to make this game the best Pokemon game in the franchise.

I played about 5 hours of Wander Stars by @papercastlegames.com whilst travelling yesterday.
I am loving it so far, the art style and story are *chef's kiss*.
Also, there is a shredded Capybara- game of the year material?

And don't forget, it is an amazing game so far! Don't sleep on Dispatch, it's a game of the year contender for me.
Dispatch coming out in episodes appears to have been a very good strategy for developer Adhoc Studio. Astounding numbers here. Episodic games often risk losing audience attention over time but 8 episodes across 4 weeks seems like the perfect cadence to keep players hooked and talking

Another video review!
I was sceptical when Pokemon Legends: Z-A was announced- would Game Freak learn from their mistakes from the previous two games?
I'm happy to say they have, mostly. . . but as always with Game Freak, it seems to be two steps forward and one step back.

I'm happy to say that I have played a couple more hours of Keeper and have warmed up to it.
The puzzles and story have become more interesting and I just finished one section with, let's say 'cotton candy', that felt amazing!
Looking forward to playing more and finishing it!

I started Keeper this evening. My early impressions are that it is a gorgeous game, almost like an oil painting come to life.
I like the Twig and Lighthouse duo- looking forward to seeing how their bond grows.
Gameplay is a bit 'meh' so far- it is very walking sim at the minute.

Want something spooky to play on Halloween?
Then why not play Pumpkin Jack? It's a Halloween themed 3D platformer about a pumpkin headed villain who leads the Devil's attack on the Earth.
