a lovely - Vibe and Vaporwave Aesthetics game with mechanics mix of exploring and puzzle, murder mystery solving with visual novel like dialogs with cardboard like NPCs.

I fell in love with this game when the intro song plays when you leave your house and do the superhero landing to solve the murders and other mysteries of the paradise #24

When Love Dies, only thing remains are the facts

+ OST, man it just hits you hard if you are a fan of city-pop/retro/vapor-wave, fantastic work by Epoch and vocals by Fiona Lynch
+ the whole art, environment & world building
+ interesting main character, Lady Love Dies
+ Even NPCs are fun and each have their own evil intentions, which makes all of the suspects
+ story and mystery of the island and its people
+ evidence collection and assignment (you can auto-assign via settings)
+ Shinji is the best
+ bear-chan

- initial traversal can feel tiring but since the map size is not that big, explorers or people who find 100% collectables will be fine with it.

TIP - unlock Lady Love Dies' 3 abilities as soon as you possible for faster movement and platforming

A nice and fun retro "boomer" shooter inspired by doom like levels and area unlocks, had fun killing the heretics and Purging the unclean for the greater good, for the emperor.

had some issues with enemies swarming you and then them being bullet sponges, which can be a bit of downside but then we shall know no fear and Victory is but a prelude to the next battle.

enjoy this game, buy it on sale with the DLC (forges of corruption)

Coming to this title after playing Automata felt a bit boring but the story picks ups its pace after you get Kaine as party member and delivers the same experience, emotions, twist and fun you had in Automata.

Its a prequel to the events of Automata by 1000s of years(dunno exact number)

+ music & OST
+ Kaine & Emil <3
+ Grimoire Weiss
+ dessert people were a fun lot
+ story, great with multiple endings.
+ side quests were fun as well

- the tedious repetition of getting the fragments and then the whole final boss level, i get it what Yako Taro was trying to show i.e world from other's perspective but truly it was cumbersome and boring at some point.
- for me the game picked up pace after you get Kaine and Emil in party before that i had my on and off days with this game.

A cool, chilling and relaxing game about climbing and reading stories of a lost civilisation and taking our cute companion to the top through the 4 biomes and 5th is the final location.

+ chill and beautiful art-style
+ climb at your own pace and own style
+ Ballast, the water-like companion

- had issues with saves, had to collect all the collectables after i finished the game and clicked new game by mistake, should at-least allow the collectables to be registered, anyways that's my particular issue

A great follow up from GRIS, with similar art style and lovely OST, with more added combat and more puzzles. This beautiful and emotional game is made even more fun by having a cute yet ferocious companion.

+ Visually stunning.
+ Soundtracks great.
+ you can pet and cuddle Neva anytime

- few boss fights and platforming to get flowers are bothersome/difficult but not a progress breaking

Thanks Nomada Studio and Devolver Digital for this game.

Really love this addictive fast paced FPS shooter, as the plot says you need that sweet dopamine to survive and this game delivers that to the gamers.

+ multiple difficulty choices to allow everyone to enjoy this game ( be it without time constraint or permadeath).
+ 90s anime visual art and aesthetic
+ synthwave music, even the main menu vibe is enough to hit that spot.
+ Loads of easter eggs and direct references/usage of them.
+ Weapons choices, character and enemy upgrades are great, yeah even the Joke Gun is fun

~ not sure its a con or done on purpose but the levels have similar layouts, its more visible and can easily learn if you are trying for endless mode.


Story on easiest difficulty can take around 2 hrs(more or less), so think with your pocket before purchasing.

But definitely try this game,

As the moderator says - "Action is better than words" so try the demo.

Are you a fan of F.E.A.R, Doom (og), half-life like shooter games and miss the good ol doom engine, look no further, this game slaps hard combat, art, visual and music wise and what slaps harder than all these are the enemies(AI).

+ GZDoom Engine, wonderful choice of engine (glad not another UE game)
+ Visual and Art, give a raise to the person who suggested purple blood for enemies(aliens)
+ Arsenal of Weapon and its modifications
+ AI of the enemies and its tier system is awesome, they upgrade with you, thus giving you challenge all the time.
+ Music, one helluva job done there, the sound design and OST are simply fantastic, sometimes the music is so good you forget to fight and die.
+ loads of secrets and Easter eggs
+ mods support
+ environmental destruction

As the game is in early access,
there will be minor bugs
Story with VO is still under development and its integration, they have 2 more chapters to develop and release.

Looking forward to more of this gem of a game.

For gamers, do try this game, buy or wishlist it, think from your wallet and also as said previously its in early access.

For the devs - i broke the burger flipper mini-game as i used macro binding for left-click loop and started showing numbers in lengthy string but it did give the achievement.

A simple, beautiful, vibrant and short game showcasing some of the issues faced by immigrants in a new country while sticking to their roots and culture, also showcases how their kids face identity issues as well.

+ great ost, visuals and food

In this game you play as Venba, she and her husband Pavalan from Tamil Nadu, India migrates to Canada to have new life and then their son Kavin is born and how they manage and struggle to survive in this new land and meanwhile juggling to make sure their son gets all the opportunities this new world gives while making sure he also stays attached to his roots depicted in a Visual novel way and cooking great dishes of their region and culture,

Get it on sale and enjoy this lovely game.
