Hooooly ♥♥♥♥ this game goes hard. It has that addicting "one more run" type of deal with plenty of unlockables and a sick style. Looking forward to playing more.

One of my favorite manga of all time is Blame!, a somewhat niche title by the masterful Tsutomu Nihei. The way Nihei crafts his worlds, letting visuals speak more than the very characters in his works, it's something unique to the medium of manga. Most of all, however, it's how he is able to portray scale in Blame! and his various other works that amaze me.

Lorn's Lure wears its inspirations on its sleeve, and chiefly among them is Blame!. It's a mysterious first-person platformer that prefers to show rather than tell, and also perfectly captures the unfathomably large scale of megastructures. Lorn's Lure might have niche appeal, but like Blame!, those who consume its content will absolutely love it.

I am the bone of my sword. Steel is my body and fire is my blood. I have created over a thousand blades. Unknown to Death, Nor known to Life. Have withstood pain to create many weapons. Yet, those hands will never hold anything. So as I pray, Unlimited Blade Works.

I dunno, I'm having fun and that's all that matters

As it stands, Selaco is one of the most original and innovative retro-inspired shooters to hit the market in quite some time, with a cornucopia of highly polished mechanics and fresh ideas. It even has a full episode available to play on Early Access now, and that already feels like a full product in and of itself. Selaco is setting the bar for shooters ludicrously high.

This game freakin' WHIPS. A solid-ass SHUMP that you can get the hang of pretty easily. Give it a go and you won't regret it. Plus that soundtrack is *chef's kiss*

i like eggs

Yeah, dis good.

Without Nightdive Studios, it's a fact I wouldn't be as big of a boomer shooter fan as I am today. The work they do to make the inaccessible, well, accessible is an insane feat of game development. So, it feels like a dream come true that this studio is remastering a game in one of my favorite franchises ever with Star Wars: Dark Forces Remaster.

Star Wars: Dark Forces was originally released in 1995 when the FPS genre was in its infancy. With Star Wars: Dark Forces Remaster, Nightdive aims to make this rather antiquated title more playable by adding modern features and revitalized visuals. The result of these efforts yields what is possibly Nightdive's best remaster to date.

Pros
Incredible Enhancements to Dark Forces' Visuals
Gunplay and Movement are Now Smooth as Butter
Fun and Creative Level Design and Puzzles
Archive Content

Cons
Certain Cutscenes Look Ugly
Still No In-Level Save Feature
