Last Day of June is a powerfully emotional experience touching on love, loss and grief. Experience the same day through a number of different perspectives, solving some simple but clever puzzles in order to understand the events as they happened or maybe even change them.

It's not an especially long tale, lasting exactly as long as it needs to. It is, however, a profound one and worth your time to experience.

Did you love Risk of Rain? Do you enjoy 3rd person action games? Pick this up. The degree to which they've managed to transfer the essence of RoR and transplant it into 3D is, frankly, staggering.

An excellent follow-up that fans of the original absolutely have to check out! Updates have been flowing freely and with zeal, truly excited to see where this goes!

One of the best Roomscale VR experiences I've had yet. Snap photos, observe folks to figure out where allegiances lie.

Brilliantly executed, a must play!

The main takeaway for this DLC is the single player story mode: Archangel.

The campaign functions as a sort of prequel to the state of the world portrayed in the Multiplayer modes. It controls a bit differently to said multiplayer modes, forgoing the free-movement in favour of a more on rails setup. Don't let that hold you back though, because it's an amazing VR experience. It's decently voice acted, and with enough plot to keep you shielding, punching and shooting your way to Deep Mountain.

This is a very short demo, but it's super fun, and hey, it's free!

I. Love. This game. It's one of, if not the most beautifully executed, low-res pixel art games I've played. It's a polished experience end to end, with satisfying controls and an excellent difficulty curve.

If you like the MetroidVania formula and are looking for a tight, excellent experience, pick this one up!

I really don't know what to say or where to start. After struggling to get the PS4 controller working (Hat to use ScpToolKit, DS4 tool wouldn't work), I was treated to an opening cutscene with the most abysmal case of screen tearing I've ever seen.

This would be forgivable as it mostly cleared up during gameplay, but the dialog, the pacing, the writing is just... it's not good. Nothing important is explained, none of the characters have any meaning or... depth. Conversations are clipped and awkward, and Rush is just... ugh.

The only saving grace is the combat system which is interesting in its novelty, but it's also pretty opaque with too much delivered too fast, with no time to make sense of it all. Just like the story.

Hard pass, find something else.

This was a very potent narrative experience. The "Gameplay", such as it is, isn't particularly engaging, but that's not why you come to a title like this. It's more a form of interactive theater.

The narrative was engaging, and for me, it resonated quite strongly. The video and audio clips are so well acted that it truly does feel like they were captured from reality rather than acted at all.

If the very real and personal feeling interactive short story sounds engaging to you then Cibele is worth your time and money.

Procyon is an incredibly well polished experience. The controls are tight and the visuals pop. I love bold, bright laser beams in games, and these ones here are some of the boldest and brightest AND THEY BEND!

It's not an especially long game, but I found it to be quite challenging, especially the later bosses. If you're looking for a bullet-hell type game, look somewhere else, but if you're after a competently produced and entertaining (the cutscene voiceovers crack me up each time) SHMUP, you could do a lot worse than Procyon.

One Way Heroics is one of the freshest little roguelikes I've seen in a long time. The darkness keeps things moving ever forward, keeping you on your toes as you explore to find towns, items and equipment to progress ever further.

Fast paced, engaging and ever ready for a quick go. Recommended.
