Awesome Pea is a retro-styled platformer where you control a supposedly greedy pea who enjoys collecting money. The game clearly wants to be reminiscent of old-school games, with green-tinged graphics and an unforgiving nature, sending you back to the start of each level whenever you mess up. The demo consists of the first three stages…

I like to work on art and writing and was inspired by video games and movies and other such things. I love when I find creative stories and characters, and I try to make my own. So far, I've been unsuccessful, but I'm trying.
Listmas 2021: The Duck’s Funniest Games
During last year’s Listmas, we spent a week discussing our favorite comedic gaming moments. This year, for the Duck’s free choice, I thought it would be fun to list some of the funniest games, in general, that I’ve ever played. After all, who doesn’t want to end the holiday season with some good cheer? As…
Terraria: Demo Review
To be honest, I tend to get rather overwhelmed by games that give me too much freedom. A game that can be played almost endlessly is more akin to a nightmare to me than the exciting prospect that it really should be. Sure, I do like freedom in my games, freedom to complete a challenge…

Pillar (MichaelArts): Demo Review

Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course Finally Has a Release Date!
Just recently, Studio MDHR released a brand new trailer for the long-awaited Cuphead DLC, The Delicious Last Course!

Listmas 2021: The Duck’s Gaming-Themed Meal
Well, this is most assuredly the tastiest week Virtual Bastion has had in a long time. It’s now the Duck’s turn to write about just a handful of the many video game foods I’d like to try. I’ve narrowed it down to several sections, Sides, Meals, and Desserts, with three entries each. Because without some…
Deltarune Chapter 2 is Even Better
After roughly a 3-year wait, the second chapter of Deltarune has finally been released (and for free, no less!). Considering the long time period between both chapters, I have to admit that I don’t remember Chapter 1 super well, but I can’t shake the feeling that Chapter 2 is even better. The game might not…
Psychonauts 2 is a Much More Polished Sequel
In the recent past, the Duck wrote a rather…critical review about the original Psychonauts from In the recent past, the Duck wrote a rather…critical review about the original Psychonauts from 2005. While I praised the game’s characters, story, and creativity, I was a lot harsher when it came to the game’s clunky platforming. With that…
