Hey, this one looks like it might be up my alley. I typically play more action based games, but I like to try and branch out now and then too. Thanks for the write up!

Nice! MRB is definitely worth a replay! I actually replayed it recently and beat it this time. Younger me was trying to play it on hard mode like a psychopath… Lol
- Comment on Good new sidescrolling beat'em ups of 2025 2 weeks ago:
I don’t know of any that came out this year (exception being cosmic invasion, which I’m sure you’re aware of).
The last few that I played were River City Girls, Scott Pilgrim, Streets of rage 4, and mother Russia bleeds

-Escape from Duckov (still)
-Constance has been amazing so far
-Spindle (this one’s a bit more relaxed)
- Comment on Weekly “What are you playing” Thread || Week of November 23rd 5 weeks ago:
I’ve been playing Windswept, it’s an amazing little platformer in the spirit of Donkey Kong Country but very unique and incredibly well done.
Also, I just started a little 2D adventure game called Spindle. You play as the new incarnation of death tasked with retrieving people’s spirits. It’s a pretty fun zelda-like so far.
Escape from Duckov also still has me hooked. It’s very addictive, especially after loading up a bunch of mods and quality of life improvements.

Good, more developers should take that kind of stance. I might just get this game out of moral obligation.

Well this one looks different! Reminds me a little bit of the old school flash games back in the day.

Yes it is, check out my other comment for the link 👍
- Comment on Hollow Knight Silksong (mod recommendations) 2 months ago:
My apologies then, sorry about the assumption…
Many people, myself included, think that Silksong is not balanced as well as it could be.
Anyway, yes there are quite a few mods that I’ve found so far. Balancing out some of the more egregious design choices, and adding some general quality of life changes and time savers makes this game so much more enjoyable in my opinion. The challenge is still there, the game just feels much less like it’s trying to force you to be a masochist.
Also, there are purely cosmetic mods as well for people who just enjoy a different look.
- Comment on Hollow Knight Silksong (mod recommendations) 2 months ago:
Yes, there is actually quite a few so far! Check out https://thunderstore.io/c/hollow-knight-silksong/?ordering=top-rated
There is another popular mod hosting website too, which may have more options to choose from, but I hesitate to recommend it due to the general controversy I’ve seen as of late.
- Comment on Hollow Knight Silksong (mod recommendations) 2 months ago:
Come on now, it’s fine to be opinionated on the matter but inciting an unnecessary argument doesn’t do any good. Mods are a great feature and allow many people to get even more enjoyment out of an incredible game.

I forgot about the battery buffoonery. Yes, that seems quite ridiculous.
I thought the fact that it looks like a Vita would be well received, what makes you not like that aspect?

Gamenative is pretty awesome, and works great for a lot of games. Also, consider referencing/contributing to Emuready https://www.emuready.com/ as well!
