I knew how this story ended before the movie started. Didn't matter. Pressure still finds plenty of tension in the anguish of making the final, fateful decision for D-Day to go ahead.

Sektori from @gimblll.com finally hit Switch 2 today and I still can’t stop playing it. This is the closest any modern arcade shooter has come to Geometry Wars for me.

Pressure stars Andrew Scott and Brendan Fraser in a WWII drama about the weather forecasts, military pressure, and difficult decisions behind D-Day.

Former Housemarque developer Kimmo Lahtinen brings acclaimed twin-stick shooter Sektori to Nintendo Switch 2 after a breakout 2025.
My addiction to All Hail the Orb from @legingerdev.bsky.social made me play through it melting down on my Steam Deck. Highly recommend this one, but definitely play it on a computer instead.

I liked Tides of Tomorrow's Story-Link system. Seeing other players' choices ripple in your own game is genuinely cool. I got kinda tired of characters telling me how awesome or awful the last guy was, though.

Echo Isle succeeds at exactly what it sets out to do. That's also my biggest criticism of it. A pleasant one-evening Zelda-like that never quite steps out from the shadow of the game that inspired it.

Disclosure Day isn't going on the same shelf as Jaws, Raiders, or Jurassic Park. That's less a criticism of the movie than a reminder of just how great Spielberg is.

868-BACK looks like it was built in MS Paint. It’s ugly, mean, and incredibly hard to put down. A truly fantastic roguelike.

All Hail the Orb mixes duck-filled cult management with addictive incremental progression, though Steam Deck performance and worker automation drag it down.
DigixArt's Tides of Tomorrow uses an asynchronous multiplayer story system to connect players through shared choices in a flooded post-apocalyptic world.

Cleaning Up! from @koobazaur.bsky.social swaps out the chaotic joy of Just Crow Things for a quieter cozy-game vibe. It's pleasant and relaxing, but I miss Crowy's gremlin energy.

Review on @thegeeklygrind.bsky.social:
Josh Koenig’s Echo Isle is a compact Link's Awakening homage with charming dungeon exploration and handheld-era spirit, but little identity beyond its inspiration.
Unbound Creations’ Cleaning Up! delivers satisfying cleanup gameplay and cozy pacing, even if it lacks the personality of the studio’s earlier work.
Sigono’s OPUS: Prism Peak is surprisingly raw about regret, self-worth, and middle-aged burnout. Feels like if Miyazaki and Shinkai made a movie about a man's midlife crisis. @shueisha-games.bsky.social

Review on @thegeeklygrind.bsky.social
Sigono’s OPUS: Prism Peak uses photography mechanics and a Ghibliesque spirit world to tell a thoughtful story about regret, memory, and self-worth.
Incremental games are basically digital dopamine machines. Fracture Field is not good at it.

Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day returns to alien-focused science fiction with a conspiracy thriller about a hidden extraterrestrial secret and the race to expose it.
