Apologies for another late post.
This week I have been playing a lot more UFO 50. I beat night manor and started grimstone finally.
Also been playing more binding of Isaac, working towards dead god.
Finally I also played a cute free game on steam called 20 small mazes. Highly recommend giving it a whirl. Takes about an hour
Powered through Beastieball over the past week, a creature collector/“sports” game from the devs of Chicory and Wandersong. I had fairly high expectations because I enjoyed the devs previous work, but it turned out even better than expected. Lots of cool creature designs, music is Lena Raine’s usual standout stuff, story kept my attention.
The sportsball system is surprisingly complex, if a little hard to learn. I went through multiple types of team setup and felt like a lot of different setups were viable in the end. Every match is a 2v2, every offensive turn is 3 actions worth, and you get a defensive turn too. You really have to build a team with good synergy between them and be smart about swapping in and out.
Only real downside is it’s still early access and a decent chunk of creatures have placeholder art or don’t have the full set of animation frames yet. Most are reasonably finished but there’s a couple that are a little jarring.
