Puyo Puyo Tetris Port Report: Of Blocks and Blobs (PC Port)

    I might have mentioned it before, but Steam's update to the wishlist page seems to be acting a bit iffy when sorting by release dates. Not counting anything involving Early Access, it can't really decide where it should put unreleased games, even if they have an announced release date. For example, a game I'm curious to review is slated to release April 3rd, but it ranks as having a release later than that of games coming in late April, late May, and even those with a TBA date. This, along with a lack of interesting games (interesting for me. I know about Far Cry 5,) I've made an executive decision to look at a recently released port of a game released last year. We're going mainstream, folks! It's the Steam version of Puyo Puyo Tetris, by Sega (Patch 3 Version!)

Vagante Review: Four Years Spent Spelunking (PC, Mac)

    Well, for some reason, Steam delayed their release of Pato Box, which means I have to shelve all my Air Bud jokes ("There's nothing in the rule book that says...") and find a different game. Luckily, I have one right here.

    I've seen quite a few games out there that are well-known for having spent a very long time in development. We all probably remember how Duke Nukem Forever took about a decade to be released as a mediocre first-person shooter, but Steam's early access system can also be considered "in development." If we do go with my ruling that early access counts as development time, today's game has been in development for about four years. It's the side-scrolling platformer Vagante, by Nuke Nine!

CHUCHEL Review: Comedy and Fuzz with a Cherry on Top (PC, Mac)

   Well, let me start off by apologizing for taking so long with this update. I had a game already set up to review, that game being a beat-em-up called Way of the Passive Fist, complete with the obligatory references to Fist of the North Star or the LISA games. However, I discovered a bit too late that for some reason, the main method I use to take screenshots on the Steam games (pressing F12 to snap a screen) didn't work for that game. Since I don't know any other useful screenshot programs and I don't want to use the tedious option of the Print Screen option pasted to Paint, I had to put that review on the back burner. Luckily, I found someone willing to help me with that issue...

"......zzzzzz.....zzzzzz....."

    ...well, he said he would help me with this one. Although he might have been asking me when I was going to clear out my Steam backlog. There was quite a language barrier between us. Looks like I'll be doing this one on my own. It's the comedic adventure game CHUCHEL, by Aminita Designs!
