Buckshot Roulette
2023
“What if we took the best part of Inscryption but made it Russian Roulette instead of Yu-Gi-Oh” is a helluva premise and it works really well.
This tickled my fancy in all the right ways and I just need a PvP mode so I can punish my non statistics-brained friends.

Really charming and fun little game, blends the look of older Armored Core with the gameplay of Earth Defense Force. Build your robot and shoot hundreds of space-bugs! Has that "minimum budget, maximum fun" quality that really reminds me of Comiket games. This thing comes at you with low-res visuals, a Kevin MacLeod soundtrack, a Saturday Morning Anime tone, and a sincere desire to show you a good time. Top-shelf Having Fun on the Computer.
A trans-femme manifesto on how much games fall short in communicating experiences outside of dominant lenses. It's a pretty straightforward and easy to use Twine format and encourages moving around throughout the text at your own pace to engage with what you're most excited by. Definitely worth the time it takes to engage with it.
And y'know...it IS weird that Mario kills babies.
