Pilotwings Resort Review Nintendo 3DS
A console launch can do crazy things to people. Waiting months for its release while continually scanning the internet for a scrap of new information is bound to have an effect. People often lose a sense of perspective in all the hype and chaos. So when the console finally hits, it's hard to look at it with anything other than awe and wonder. The same applies to the games. Years of buzz can make a game seem like a revolutionary piece of entertainment. People end up having such strong expectations... -

Bombardiers Guild Review - iOS
The loading screen in Bombardiers Guild [sic] is the first clue to the rich and detailed world that developers Quantum Toast have crafted. Steampunk style is enjoying a resurgence in modern culture, which lends the Guild a unique look for a mobile game.
Before discussing the game, a brief mention must be made of the price you pay for access to the Guild: £1.19. You can’t buy much for £1.19 these days. A croissant in Pret a Manger, for example, costs £1.25. Croissants are made from ...

Shoot'em'ups come in all sorts of graphical flavours: fantasy, sci-fi, steampunk, modern day, wartime, or even the sexy kind, like Cosmo Dreamer and Like Dreamer, together known as the Double-D Collection.
Or at least that's what the title and cover would make you think. Publisher Eastasiasoft created a suggestive aura around these games, probably to get more attention than they otherwise would have had, but you cannot judge a game from its cover: yes, there are a couple of gravity-defying...-

The Switch's hybrid nature and the number of shoot'em'ups available on it created some interesting peripherals like Fangamer's FlipGrip, a plastic cradle to hold Switch's main body vertical with the Joycons attached to the sides; the FlipGrip kept Switch portable but is not compatible with the console's Lite or OLED iterations, and there are no signs of an updated version being studied.

Excerpt from the diary of Briareos Kerensky, newly appointed angler of the Oceanography Institute.
Day 1. I don't usually write diaries, but I've decided to see for how long I can keep this up...not to mention this new job, I don't particularly care about fishing in any kind of incarnation, but there are no fixed hours or minimum time requirements. Got to meet my partners for this job today and they explained my tasks. We've got a supervisor from the institute, the ship's captain, an...-

Rocket Punch were a small Chinese developer with no games under their belt when they launched the Kickstarter for the then-named Code: HARDCORE. Details were scarce, but the kickass art, and the promise of sidescrolling fast-paced giant robot action was enough to draw backers in, including myself. While still under development the game garnered several awards wherever it was shown, and after a change of title due to Japanese copyright laws, delays typical of Kickstarter projects, and Arc...

The first Blaster Master landed in 1988 on the NES. It gave control over a nimble tank in sidescrolling stages and the tank's pilot in overhead stages, providing players with two distinct playstyles that mixed of exploration, platforming, and enemy killing, something that would be described as Metroidvania today. Blaster Master proved popular enough to receive multiple sequels, the last being re-imagining of the first game on the Wii in 2010. Fast forward to 2017 and Inti Creates released Blast...
