When looking at the Super Mario franchise from a modern lens, one of the most distinct aspects is the parallel existence of both traditional 2D entries alongside the more open 3D iterations. This side-by-side formula didn’t always exist, though; the jump to 3D would need a bit over a decade…
Any Sonic the Hedgehog film that included Shadow and didn’t have Crush 40’s “Live and Learn” would have been a monumental misfire. While that’s not the key to the film’s massive success this weekend (it managed to topple Mufasa: The Lion King with ease), even director Jeff Fowler understands how…

Two musically inclined games appeared today during Nintendo’s Indie World Showcase. One is all about following a band’s journey in the LA music scene and another is part rhythm-based game, part dungeon crawler.

Today’s Indie World was a fairly low key string of announcements, with no last minute stunners or showstopper drops (besides, of course, crabs). As such, the show concluded with some very quick rapid-fire clips of upcoming indie games, including some available today — and a port of a modern masterpiece….
It’s a big day for indie games, with the Indie World Showcase having just wrapped up, but we aren’t done getting indie goodies on our beloved handheld. Wolfstride, a new mecha RPG from developer OTA IMON Studio and publisher Raw Fury, releases today for the Nintendo Switch. The game features…
The cozy game genre has been growing over the last few years across all gaming platforms. It’s easy to find charming, cute games featuring farming, befriending cute little creatures, and participating in dance battles? Ok, the last one is rather specific, but that mechanic belongs to Ooblets. Initially launched via…
Traffic. Easily one of the most reviled aspects of the human experience. Truly a collective and momentous waste of fuel and time; it serves for many as the harbinger of a day of full-time toil and an obstacle in the way of home. And yet, Dinosaur Polo Club over here…
One of the first games shown during today’s Indie World showcase was the puzzle-platformer ElecHead, which really impresses with its core concept and stylish look.
