Murasaki Baby is strange and wonderful

Vita’s new baby dragging game PlayStation Vita titleMurasaki Babylooked to be pretty dark and twisted in its debut trailer at Sony’s gamescom press conferenceearlier this week. Now that I’ve played it, I’d say that it isn’t quite as dark as it first came off to be. There’s actually a cute side to it. Kind of. The cuteness starts with the premise: the player uses the Vita’s touchscreen to hold the hand of a baby carrying a balloon....

New World: Aeternum preview: A familiar world with a refreshed coat of paint

I always had mixed feelings about the originalNew World.I first played it when it launched in 2021 and got to experience the full mix of genuinely enjoyable gameplay, questionable server issues, and quests that repeated the same few objectives throughout most of my playthrough. Even with all that said, I still dedicated over 400 hours to it, and I enjoyed the pace change from more traditional MMOs. Fast forward to 2024, Amazon Games announced a rerelease for thismoderately successful MMOnamedNew World: Aeternum....

TheSpore Creature Creatoris a fun tool for the industrious among us. Spawning the unique and customizable little monsters may be a lonely experience at the moment, but no one would know by looking at the numbers. According to theSporehomepage, there have been over 1 million user-created monsters since the launch of theCreator. Interestingly, it looks as though the majority of the million lack the flair of a sexual organ or a resemblance to popular video game characters....

Paradise Lost: First Contact now 100% more squiggly

Squiggly is such a funny word Paradise Lost: First Contactsuccessfully raised over doubletheir Kickstarter goal. Double the money means double the squiggles! The animation was great when they initially revealed the game, but one of the funding goals was graphical improvements and I’m liking the improvements here. The developers behind the gameshared some animatedgifs of the new animations for the plant creature, and it certainly does look more freaky. The creature looks “more fluid and detailed” now, with smoother transitions happening between the frames....

Project: B adds tripping to Super Smash Bros. Melee

‘Don’t wanna be a player no more’ – Joe, featuring Big Pun A couple years ago, I wrote aboutwhy I like tripping inSuper Smash Bros. Brawl, (reviewedherefor Destructoid byBattlebornwriter Aaron Linde), and people really seemed to care about what I had to say. The post apparently got so big that even Masahiro Sakurai, the creator ofSmash Bros.himself, got around to reading it. From what I’ve heard, he was quite touched by my appreciation of one of his most deeply-despised design decisions....
