Platformers are one of the most enduring genres out there and there is always room for one more if it is done well. Last Soul, an upcoming 2D pixel-art platformer by Wulum is already shaping up to be something special. While the planned release date is set for Spring 2022, there is a free prologue available on Steam featuring two levels. The first level serves as a tutorial where players are introduced to some of the skills available to the robotic protagonist, Bop. After that, players are thrown into a tense boss fight where they get to put these skills to the test

Take control of one of four Urican demons and blast away enemies in this twin-stick shooter. Unfortunately, the colorful visuals and non-stop action cannot hide how shallow the gameplay is and how repetitive everything becomes after only a few rounds. The inclusion of local co-op and multiplayer modes adds some fun to the game, but there are much better options available for this genre.
Gameplay: Action-packed, but very repetitive and grindy.
Graphics: Colorful, but sometimes too chaotic for its own good.
Sound: Very average

HYPERCHARGE: Unboxed had us hooked last year and earned itself a well-deserved 8.7/10 in our review.

What happens when you need a break from all the killing and surviving in Killing Floor 2 on Hell on Earth difficulty? You drop the difficulty down to Hard and make up your own rules, of course! Join Team GAMERamble for something a little different this time as we tackle the perils of Prison and Farmhouse in Killing Floor 2 while making up the rules as we go along.

Help Tenzou Montesugi fend off lovestruck girls with his pheromone gun while pursuing true love in the game that started the Gal*Gun franchise. While it lacks some of the features and enhancements introduced in sequels, Gal*Gun Returns is still a fun title with plenty of humor and lots of fanservice. It’s rather tame by the standards of the series and can become repetitive after a while, but it is definitely not lacking in content. As a bishōjo rail shooter game, it is a very niche title, but players who can appreciate the tongue-in-cheek humor will enjoy Gal*Gun Returns.
Gameplay: A straightforward rail shooter with plenty of girls and modes.
Graphics: The character models look great, but the backgrounds are a little plain.
Sound: Full Japanese voice acting and some nice tunes too

Rot Gut is a very short platformer featuring a gun-totting agent taking down bad guys during the American Prohibition. There’s virtually nothing in the way of a storyline and each of the six levels on offer can be completed in a matter of minutes. The art style is unique, though, and the soundtrack pretty decent, but even with the cheap price-tag, there’s not a lot of value for money to be found here.
Gameplay: Lots of jumping and shooting, but it’s over before you know it.
Graphics: The noir pixel art aesthetic is not too bad actually.
Sound: The chiptune jazz soundtrack is the highlight of the game
