Review by Harvard L. Ultrawings is an excellent arcade-style flight sim, developed by Bit Planet Games out of Dallas, Texas. It’s also perhaps the first game which I would say is not as good on the Switch as it is on other platforms – for various reasons that I’ll get…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Serious aircraft simulators are for really hardcore players. There’s a certain thrill to mastering the complex controls for aeronautical terms I’d never be able to memorise, I’m sure, but those games are well beyond me, which is unfortunate, because I enjoy the idea of them a…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Well, here’s something I didn’t expect; a roguelike that actually got me excited to play a roguelike. With a ridiculously high percentage of indie developers deciding that randomised levels are a clever way of padding out the amount of “content” in a game, and “roguelike” being…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. I was already sold on virtual reality, so it would be unfair to say Eagle Flight sold me on the technology. Perhaps it would be more reasonable to say that Eagle Flight has really been the first game that showed the full power of VR. As…
Read MoreWhen I think of the roguelike genre, I think of dungeon crawling experiences. So it’s nice when a game breaks away from that expectation to offer something different. At its heart, Sublevel Zero is still very much a roguelike, but dressed up as a science fiction shooter by way of…

Read MoreNews by Chris I. A few months ago we strapped into the cockpit and took flight in the duo indie team of Gugila’s Altitue0: Lower and Faster. Closing the hatch and lifting off in this aerial racing title in our preview found to be an addictive mix of simulation flight…
Read MoreThunder Wolves comes out of the gates, all of its guns blazing. It makes not apologies for being what it is: an shooting title that looks and sounds like it would be right at home with a buddy action movie from the 80’s. The V8 Ninja wrote up a nice…
Read MoreWhen you cross technical proficiency, a reasonable level of polish, and feature parity to AAA console releases with uninspired design, you get Sky Gamblers: Cold War. It’s impossible to claim that the game doesn’t give you enough bang for your back; $4.99 gets you a single player mode featuring survival,…
Read MoreAn interesting little trailer has just landed in our inboxes. Developers, Most Wanted, and publisher, bitComposer, has lifted the wrappers on a new Thunder Wolves trailer, and we’re rather looking forward to this one. As you can see from the trailer, this is a bit of an action-heavy chopper combat…
