I'll eventually get Loco Motive, Nine Sols and Platform 8 practically for sure and that should be it for me!
Just Nine Sols I think. That's it.
I’m hoping for a NL review of Loco Motive soon!
Ooh, Nine Sols is out so soon?
I'll be waiting for a physical regardless, but that's cool to see, hope the Switch version measures up.
Looks like a good week to peruse the sales.
Really looking forward to reviews on Nine Sols and the physical edition.
Il grab Nine Sols digitally and cross my for fingers and live in hope for a physical copy
Slim pickins this week. But probably getting these:
("86" on MetaCritic for PC)
(Rated "Overwhelmingly Positive" on Steam, the highest possible rating, from nearly 14,000 users)
I also already have all of the Shockman games.
I played an hour of Divine Dynamo Flamefrit last night. So far, it's good, simple fun. It feels like a bit like an oddball game from the late SNES or early Playstation era. And you really can't mess around too much because you will die. The mechanics are simple and fun, and I'm hoping to play straight through this weekend before I get back into Shining Force.
