We could explore the known and unknown galaxies, or hope for someone to rip a mask off and yell Baba Booey into a live mic. I know what I'm stuck doing Thursday night.

Things we missed last week: Taito's Scramble Formation, shooter-vania Tevi (Jordan's review), a late release of Zach GOTY 2000 Turok 3, and in what can only be described as a miracle on the level of Doom Eternal running well on Switch... Trip World DX FINALLY came out in North America and Japan.

A good week for smaller titles, headlined by the long-awaited Outer Wilds release on Switch. Can the intergalactic exploration hold up on a portable platform? We'll find out later this week. In another miracle, to the point I had this game marked as cancelled after it went radio silent for a long time, Skater XL is finally paying off a Direct from September 2019 and coming on Tuesday. And for those looking for Thousand Year Door but possibly better, action RPG Born of Bread lands on Tuesday as well (read Jordan's preview for more).

Smaller but still important titles this week include A Highland Song as featured in the Indie World last month, as well as blacksmith sim While The Iron's Hot. And from the house of oddities are a pair of games (Hiveswap Friendsim and Pesterquest) from the Homestuck... universe?
