[Review] Jet Kave Adventure (NS)
Jet Kave Adventure is an attempt by a small Polish studio to make a quality platformer in the style of Donkey Kong Country Returns. And they did a great job!

[Review] Toree 3D (NS)
This short, cute, low-poly platformer with some creepy touches was a true joy!

Diplodocus has pivoted from a 3D charmer to a less novel 2D jump ‘em up for its second Regina & Mac game.

[Review] New Pokemon Snap (NS)

[Review] Reverie (NS)
This indie game is more like a cross between Link to the Past and Mother 3, plus a big bucket of wholesomeness.

[Review] Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity (NS)
Hyrule Warriors is actually factually my favourite Zelda game, maybe. So even though I ultimately had mixed feelings on Breath of the Wild, I was very keen on Omega Force’s next look at mixing the Dynasty Warriors formula with the Zelda world. Spoilers ahead!

[Review] Kero Blaster (NS)
Yes, it’s not Cave Story 2 but Pixel’s latest release is an excellent action game anyway, and bursting with charm.

[Review] Crypt of the Necrodancer (NS)
This rhythm/dungeon-crawler-rogeulike captured me so effectively that it ended up causing me real physical injury. What an endorsement!
