Review: Project Blue is, if nothing else, a straightforward retro platformer
Last time I touched base with 8-Bit Legit, I got to play Full Quiet, an incredible effort that on one front was the realization of a current day open-world game at the same time it was a real NES title. Now, the focus is on the tried and true platformer genre with Project Blue, a…
Review: Teslagrad 2 is an electrifying sequel to a brilliant platformer
An ever better game than its predecessor, Teslagrad 2 is a surprise release that keeps on giving.
E3 2015 – Make me a Super Mario, Maker
Super Mario Maker really is the next step for Nintendo. What else could please fans more than giving them the tools to make their own Mario game? If they clamor for more, more and more, it should be the perfect solution to give a chance for people to put their money where their mouth is,…
LittleBigPlanet 3 Review

Yumi’s Odd Odyssey Review
Umihare Kawase is one of Japan’s hidden gems in videogaming. It isn’t anything particularly special at first look. It’s a series of games that involve a swinging mechanic much akin to Bionic Commando, set on the dreamy backdrop of a young girl’s imagination. After years of relative success in many generations of consoles in Japan,…
Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse HD Review
When you wish upon a star, would you wish for a remake of your childhood’s favorite videogames? Besides my awful Disney pun, writing this review up is a fair opportunity to ask how far nostalgia can carry a game. As I was playing Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse HD, the remake to one of…
