Consider lunch. Perhaps a nice ham sandwich. A slice of a knife neatly halves the ham and its two bread slices. But what if you slip? Oops, the ham now rests folded under a flipped plate, with one slice of bread on the floor and the other stuck to the ceiling. Here’s some solace: geometry ensures that a single straight cut, perhaps using a room-sized machete, can still perfectly bisect all three pieces of your tumbled lunch, leaving exactly half of the ham and half of each slice of bread on either side of the cut. That’s…

Essentially, their mod allows you to play the original Resident Evil game as Jill, only now she’s decked out to look like a giant…

Mark my words; we’re about to be buried under a deluge of clones of Vampire Survivors. Right now, it’s already a drizzle, but it reached indie game escape velocity, and that means everyone will be trying to burn the same fuel. Just look at Among Us. Certainly, it wasn’t the first social deduction game, but in the wake of its success, there was an explosion of them. Some of them are just blatant carbon copies. Now, these two runaway successes are colliding in Vampire Survivors: Emergency Meeting. It is entirely just…

It’s kind of amazing how much influence Mother 3 has had on game design in the West, despite never being released here. It’s a bit hard to describe the difference between Earthbound influence and Mother 3 influence, but it’s there. Knuckle Sandwich seems to be in the Mother 3 camp. Actually, Knuckle Sandwich is a bit of a mash-up of Mother 3, Undertale (which was also inspired by Mother 3), and WarioWare. At times, it seems to push the concept to the extremes. Other times, it wallows in it. Knuckle Sandwich is mixed. How…
