Indie Corner: Episode 5 – Cool Concepts with Old School Brilliance
I’m back again! It’s been a busy few weeks for me lately, and the year goes by quickly. With only a few months left for gaming in 2021, things are really heating up for my annual GOTY awards. Just like last year, indie games have been doing really well for...
Highfleet Review: A Journey of Frustrating Brilliance
Highfleet might be the best game this year I didn’t enjoy. It’s complicated. Every so often, a game turns up that we have trouble with. Sometimes it’s because of design. Sometimes it’s because of circumstances. It doesn’t often happen for me, but it did with Highfleet. Oh, boy, did it....
My Personal Journey Through Pokemon: The First Generation!

The Last Spell: New Punishments, Old School Style!

Biomutant Review: The Weird Ninja Racoon Simulator
Biomutant is a weird game. Weird in execution, weird by design, and weird by choice. It’s a fascinating project by such a small team. Made by nineteen people, Biomutant is incredibly ambitious in scope and what it sets out to do. While it stumbles in many areas, it’s a fascinating...
