I admit freely Unpacking has been my most anticipated game of the year. The cozy, chill vibes of the trailer hooked me instantly, and when the demo was available on Steam I played through it several times. So when Humble Games reached out to me with a key I was ecstatic. Made by Australian developer […] More

No More Heroes III is Strictly for the Fans, and That’s Okay
SUDA51 is one of gaming’s most fascinating creators to me.

He actually stepped away from the director’s chair for a while, though, and only […] More

Garden Story First Impressions: A Fruitful, Adorable Adventure
When I say I’ve been waiting years for this game–I mean it. The first time I saw Garden Story was late 2019 when developer Picogram announced they’d be partnering with Rose City Games, who would publish the title.

The GameCube 20 Years Later
The GameCube was Nintendo’s sixth-generation console. In contrast to the standard size CD-ROMs used by the Sony PlayStation 2 and Microsoft’s first foray into the market, the original Xbox, the GameCube used mini-discs. The entire console was quite small and even had a handle on the back for portability. It was not as simple as […] More

Nintendo GameCube Favourites
The GameCube came out at a perfect time in my life—I was 11 years old and for the first time, I started paying attention to things like graphics and gameplay. It felt like I had moved on from “I just play whatever my parents get me” to actually choosing my own games to rent and […] More
