[Here] is the link to Mark Darrah's co-stream of the XBox Games Showcase from last month (the showcase where the DA:TV character reveal trailer dropped). The DA:TV trailer appears at around timestamp 16 mins 28 secs. After the trailer wrapped, he said "Honestly, that's my favorite BioWare trailer I think we've ever done". "That Dragon Age trailer is the, I would say the favorite trailer that I've ever seen from BioWare. I'm sure it's out there to watch a few more times."

Chat asked why PS was not mentioned on the trailer's end slide alongside XBox and PC and Mark explained "We're not gonna mention PS at the Xbox Showcase. [...] You don't get, if you're in the console manufacturer's showcase, they're only talking about their consoles." Chat asked if DA:TV was exclusive to one platform. Mark explained "No, Dragon Age is not exclusive". He confirmed that it didn't say Game Pass. He also said, "I'm sure they'll show character creator for Dragon Age at some point".

Sonic Generations

Your experience with Sonic Generations will depend on whether or not you are a fan of the Sonic the Hedgehog series going into the game. If you are, Sonic Generations is a celebration of everything that makes the franchise brilliant, a nostalgic trip through some of the blue blur’s greatest highlights, and a reminder of just how undeniably good Sonic games can be when done right. If you’re not a fan of the series going into Sonic Generations, then after playing it, you probably will be.

Kao the Kangaroo, a 3D platformer with fun and fast-paced combat! I had a blast playing through it and thought I'd draw the titular character himself, KAO!

Klonoa: Door To Phantomile (Xbox One) Review

Klonoa was one of the many, many colorful plat-former games that captured my imagination as a youngster, but I had never managed to get myself a copy on PSOne when games for said system were much easier to come by. Thankfully, my wife found it re-released on the Xbox One and bought it for me!

The rest of the review is below the cut!

The game stars Klonoa, an adorable little rabbit-dog creature on his quest to save his world from Ghadius, a spooky guy with a cool bird mask who wants to turn the land into one big nightmare. Joining Klonoa is also his best friend Huepow, a little water bubble guy, and he will also make many other friends along his quest.

The game plays on a 2d plane but uses 3d graphics and twisty curvy level designs, which makes for a very fun feel to the world and it's movement. Klonoa can do little flutter jumps with his fluffy ears, and use his magic ring to grab items and capture enemies, which he can then toss or use to do a jump boost.

The gameplay is very solid and the controls are great, though every once in a while the game threw a really difficult puzzle or fight at me, which could get frustrating. Thankfully the game includes both a normal and easy mode, so if a level is too frustrating you can always switch off to easy mode which is much more forgiving as it gives you more health, infinite retries and more reach with your magic ring.

The game's art and music are fantastic and mesmerizing, with tons of cute characters and bright varied environments. Even most of the enemies are pretty freakin' adorable and colorful.

Outside of the occasional difficulty spikes, I can't really think of any other criticisms. It's just that damn good. This one comes highly recommended from me, and if you get this modern Xbox One version it also comes bundled with Klonoa 2! As far as how this compares to the original version of the game, I only played the demo of that one - so I can't say for sure - but I assume it's just as good, though I am not sure which features from the new version it will have.

10th June 2024 - Over the past few days of Summer I’ve played through the first Klonoa game in Klonoa: Phantasy Reverie Series and, wow, it was a really great game! Great platforming, well-designed boss fights, colourful and cheerful visuals, engaging 2.5D level design, a depressing ending that was a kick in the gut, it was fantastic!

Hopefully I’ll get to the sequel sometime in the near future, since this only look me around 2.5 hours to beat!

For those of you who hadn't noticed, I'm working on Frogun Encore! A standalone small sequel to Frogun! Tons of tweaks to the controls and new moves, a big world map, couch coop and more new stuff!

Please add it to your wishlist! 🐸💙

Demon Turf

Fans of 3D Mario games, in the style of Galaxy, Odyssey, and even the humble 64, this one is for you. Demon Turf, a game made by indie dev Fabraz (with help of Playtonic), is probably one of the most successful of these sorts of games calling back to the height of the 3D platformer dominance. The twist here is that instead of being a collectathon focused sort of experience, there’s more focus on platforming challenges.
