Lunistice: Demo Review

Lunistice is yet another one of those countless modern platformers that were made with our nostalgia in mind.  But instead of mimicking the graphical style of old SNES titles, this game is inspired by the 32-bit graphics of PS1 and Sega Saturn.  Lunistice stars the adorable tanuki, Hana, who can run and double jump through…

Unbound: Worlds Apart: Demo Review

Unbound: Worlds Apart is a platformer with lovely, hand-drawn graphics and a unique concept.  You see, you must use portals to navigate your environment and solve puzzles.  The demo showcases three of these, but the game’s description boasts ten in total.

The Company Man: Demo Review

On the surface, The Company Man might seem like your average 2D platformer, until you consider the game’s rather unique theme: office work.  You see, you play as a guy named Jim, who was just hired at the Good Water Company.  Although it’s only his first day, Jim’s a rather ambitious fellow indeed, as he’s…

Nintendo Switch Online Has Gotten Good, But it Needs to be Great

I’ve found it easy over the years to rag on Nintendo for the stunning lack of quality of its online services. Nintendo just struggles when it comes to internet functionality, and they’re certainly still lagging behind their competitors even now. Still though, they’ve made progress, and that should be noted too. I don’t know if…

Top 5: Games I’d Like to See Ported to the Nintendo Switch

I joined with many a raised eyebrow over Rockstar’s recent announcement concerning Red Dead Redemption. Rumors swirled over hopes that they’d be releasing a current-gen version of the game; but, in fact, the world will be seeing only ports of the game to the PlayStation 4 and the Nintendo Switch. I’m not one to grumble…
