No aspect of Boti: Byteland Overclocked impressed me in any way, and many left me wanting to quit. It is a tough sell for any platforming enthusiast.
Tiny Witch's combination of cozy and chaotic does not pay off all too well, as it embraces neither. It plods along to the finish line, leaving no strong impressions.
SPRAWL's menacing aesthetic, exciting gunplay and an unbelievably good soundtrack make for a yet another fantastic FPS campaign that leaves me wanting more in the future.
Dragged down a bit by its unnecessary roguelite elements, Astronaut: The Best is an exciting and eccentric adventure into the unknown, and also space I guess.
Among its kind, Smushi Come Home stands out with incredibly fun changes to key mechanics and a tight, but satisfyingly large world to explore.
With a short campaign, lack of online play at the time of release and undercooked fighting mechanics, Sclash puts its worst foot forward to deliver an underwhelming experience.
Invector: Rhythm Galaxy has trouble figuring out its licensed soundtrack, and the combination of returning and brand new issues leaves the series in a difficult position moving forward.
Though its ceiling is apparently early on, Koa and the Five Pirates of Mara is an enjoyable speedrun game, just make sure to change up the default controls!
Though Dungeons of Aether stumbles in some core mechanics, the clever combat system and phenomenal art make for an exciting entry into the roguelite genre.
