Review: Anbernic RG40XXV

There are many old games, particularly RPGs, from the 16-bit era that I want to play, or that I started playing when I was a kid and never saw the ending: Lufia 1 & 2, Final Fantasy 6, Phantasy Star II, Shining Force, to cite only a few. Read More…

Fighting games and piano

Some time ago I was spacing out and started thinking how doing combos in fighting games is a little like playing a music on piano. You have to get the inputs/notes right, at the right time, at the right rhythm, otherwise it doesn’t connect, it doesn’t sound right. Read More…

Have you played...? Monotype

Monotype is a short philosophical/horror visual novel about a virtual pet that’s made real. I don’t even remember when I put it in my Steam library, but I decided to play it as I’m trying to play more instead of buying more games. Read More…

Alerta: Phishing com azeite de oliva

(post in Portuguese since this is a scam alert aimed at Brazilians) Sou um usuário ávido do Youtube e geralmente nem percebo as propagandas que aparecem no meio da lista de outros vídeos. Porém, nessa semana uma delas me chamou a atenção: 5 azeites de oliva Andorinha por R$89,90? Read More…

Have you played...? Minoria

By now you know I love indie games, but I have even more consideration when they’re made by my fellow Brazilian compatriots. Brazil isn’t known as a big game making country, but we do have some gems here. I wouldn’t call Minoria a gem, but it’s a nice game overall. Read More…

Have you played...? Refind Self: The Personality Test Game

This is definitely an odd one. I was intrigued by the game’s propsal as a personality test, and the pretty screenshots in the Steam page convinced me to try it. I love weird games so I knew I’d like this one. Read More…

Have you played...? Grimm's Hollow

I think I’ve already said that, but I love short games with a nice narrative. Grimm’s Hollow is a small RPG Maker game that tells a simple and touching story about grief and loss. We follow Lavender, a young girl, as she wakes up in a strange place called Grimm’s Hollow. Read More…

Motocross Maniacs OST

So, the other day I was listening to the Rhythm and Pixels Radio ⤴ while working. Some days I feel that 8-bit old game music really goes well with programming, it helps me get into the groove. One of the songs that played caught my attention though: Read More…

Have you played...? BAD END THEATER

I bought this some months ago captivated by its premise: a weird game where you decide characters’ fates as if in a theater play, with cute, 8-bit aesthetic? Sign me in! Steam reviews were also overwhelmingly positive and it was not expensive. Read More…

Have you played...? Ann

I’m at the point in my Steam games library where I can’t remember why I have some games - that’s the case for this one. Maybe I’m just a a sucker for meganekko. Actually, I think it was because I came across this funny Youtube video and decided to see what else the creator had done. Read More…
