It's dystopic platformer time.
Good to see you made it this week, thought you were still busy with Vesperia. What's looking hot?
We've got the opening of an apparent winter of Devolver, as their "dystopian" platformer Pikuniku is out this week. The F2P shooter Smite comes out on Thursday with a Founder's Pack available, and the Patrick Stewart-narrated My Memory of Us.
Not bad. What else we got?
Besides an archive of unknown quantity, Cursed Castilla is coming over from the 3DS for another hit of that Ghosts 'n Goblins touch. Also, KEMCO ALERT, and Legrand Legacy which is a love letter to JRPGs made by a Western studio..
Anything patently offensive?
Take a wild guess which game has the three strikes of zombies, an ALL CAPS title, and a hashtag title.
