🌞🕶️ The Touryst | Nintendo Switch | Review | "The Perfect Time For A Virtual Sunny Holiday" 🌞🕶️ @ShinenGames #GameDev #IndieGames

I’ve had my eye on The Touryst since last year when my friend (and State of Play co-conspirator) Rupert suggested it as he had enjoyed playing it so much.

A few weeks later and I was watching a Digital Foundry episode on the game – naturally focussing on the more technical aspects – and I was completely sold. 

Last week, I didn’t just play the game. I inhaled it.

🤠🔥 Boot Hill Bounties | Review | Nintendo Switch | "A Retro-Styled Western That’s Chock Full o’Beans" 🤠🔥 @ExpGamerStudios #GameDev #IndieGames

Presented in a visual and gameplay style most reminiscent of cult SNES classic Earthbound, Boot Hill Bounties is a game that sucked me in far deeper than I would have expected and I loved every moment of it.

🧛‍♂️ Vampire The Masquerade: Coteries of New York | Switch | Review | "Fangs For The Memories" 🧛‍♂️ #GameDev #IndieGames

An interactive visual novel set in White Wolf Publishing’s ‘World of Darkness’ made most familiar to gamers by Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines, a cult title released back in 2004 by Troika Games, Vampire the Masquerade: Coteries of New York (VTM:COTN) is a visual novel with light adventure elements in the form of choices that the player can make.

Whilst this means the game is quite casual in nature, the brevity of the writing and length of the game (3 hours or so) means that it feels accessible and doesn’t get too bogged down in dense text.

On the other hand, those who are used to such heavy-duty visual novels may feel short-changed here.

🏫🎒 Dead or School | PS4 | REVIEW | "Dead or…workingfromhomeduetothecoronavirus" 🏫🎒 #GameDev #IndieGames

A highly enjoyable, over the top Metroidvania with a heavy focus on action and loot. Whilst Dead or School is affected by some technical issues, the fact that this was made by a three-man development team and is so fun and addictive to play is definitely cause for celebration.

📚🕳️ The Longing | Preview | PC | "A CAVERNOUS ULTRA-SLOW IDLE ADVENTURE" 🕳️📚 @AnselmPyta #GameDev #IndieGames

It seems strange to be writing a preview of a game that is released but, as the game takes 400 days (real-time) to complete, it felt the only way to proceed.

The game begins with an underground giant king creating your character (the Shade) from the palm of his hand and tasking you to watch over him for 400 days as he sleeps.

Following this, he promptly drops off and you are left to your own devices, wandering the labyrinthine caves and rooms that make up ‘The Kingdom’ and listening to him gently snoring.

🧙‍♀️🥔 Wunderling | Review | Nintendo Switch | *Wunderling ist Wunderbar!* 🧙‍♀️🥔 @retroidofficial #GameDev #IndieGames

Wunderling is a pixel-art puzzle platformer with a deviously casual approach and is well worth your time.

Set in a colourful, 16-bit world, Wunderling casts you as a potato-ish henchman of the land’s ‘evil’ witch, a broomstick-riding little tinker that spreads the gospel of her wickedness through the medium of an anthropomorphic cow with a TV camera strapped to its back, natch.

At the start of your quest – which will take you across many dozens of levels – you are stomped by the hero, Carrot Man, on his way to rescue Princess Pea (any similarities to existing video game characters are purely coincidental) and brought back to life by the witch and told to stop Carrot Man at all costs, thus your adventure begins.

🧛‍♀️🦇 Bloodlust 2: Nemesis | Review | PC | "No ‘Suck’ Jokes, Please." 🧛‍♀️🦇 @Vampire_RPG #GameDev #IndieGames

It’s always impressive to see what extremely small development teams can achieve on a budget, especially when tackling a genre that is usually associated with both expanse and expense.

An Action/RPG hybrid presented in third-person view that takes its cue from a mashup of both Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines (mood, lore and setting) and the Diablo series (heavy focus on loot and dungeon crawling), it aims high but the focus on the more repetitive aspects detracts from the more impressive touches that Bloodlust 2: Nemesis has to offer.

🌽⚔️🌾 Rune Factory 4 Special | Review | Nintendo Switch | "Farming and Fighting" 🌽⚔️🌾 @RuneFactory_PR #GameDev #IndieGames

Rune Factory 4 Special has been Re-released on Nintendo Switch to keep fans sated until the 2020 release of Rune Factory 5, this port of a 3DS game from 2014 (in PAL regions, at least) is a solid title that does stand out as a little different from similar games by balancing out various gameplay mechanics such as farming, light adventuring and combat. This results in a fun, if not particularly deep gaming experience.

👭 Sisters Royale: Five Sisters under Fire | Nintendo Switch | Review | " A Crazy Story Line With Suggestive Sisters" 👭 @ChorusWorld @AlfaSystem_Game #GameDev #IndieGames

Sisters Royale is a fun fast-paced shooter if you can get past the crazy storyline and somewhat suggestive comments made by the sisters.

It is the first game in 12 years from the team Alfa System, who made Castle of Shikigami III in the Castle of Shikigami series. If you are familiar with the series then from the off Sisters Royal will look and feel familiar, if you compare the two games they look and feel the same. From the vertical scrolling shoot-em-up style and the anime style stills of the characters that tell the story and what a crazy story this one is.

🎻🎶 London Video game Orchestra: The Classics! – 23/02/2020 | "In summary…the London Video Game Orchestra rocks!" 🎻🎶 @lvgorchestra

Being the kind sort I am - and knowing the amount of time Faye has spent listening to orchestral versions of classic video game music on Spotify – I managed to snag a couple of tickets to this London Video Game Orchestra show when they were released at the tail end of 2019 and booked our hotel and travel plans way in advance.

I knew that the LVGO was an amateur orchestra who had formed in 2019 and had only previously played two shows, beyond that, I had no idea what to expect. I also admit that this was my first time seeing a live symphony orchestra, my only prior experience being seeing smaller orchestras playing alongside rock bands and vocalists so I was really excited to drink in the ambience.

🏯🎎⚔️ Katana Zero | REVIEW | PC | "A Must Buy For Any Indie Gamer" 🏯🎎⚔️ #GameDev #IndieGames

Katana Zero is set around a Samurai Assassin type character who can shift through time to kill targets. It’s a 2D action platformer developed by Asjiisoft and published by Devolver Digital. It seems to take something from the Hotline Miami collection, not a lot, but I see some similarities in the game. The game is very fast-paced so be ready to play as a fast, time travelling Samurai with a complicated background.

This game is slicker than the Fonz and more addictive than a kilogram jar of Nutella.

🛸 🧠 It Came From Space and Ate Our Brains| Review | PS4 | "Britt & 'Co-Op Chris Tuck In" 🧠 🛸 #GameDev #IndieGames @trianglestudios

It Came From Space and Ate Our Brains is a stylised voxel-based shooter that was originally released on PC in 2015 and is reminiscent of titles such as the mighty dead Nation and has shades of Neon Chrome.

It Came From Space and Ate Our Brains is a super-smooth and addictive isometric game that revels in its local co-op, split-screen glory but whilst it’s a solid and fun title, its basic premise and singular focus may not be to everyone’s tastes.
