Apologies for the lack of reviews lately - I've been busy with work, and I don't want to burn myself out or force myself to put out reviews without really wokring out how I feel about them. Hopefully I'll have Bomberman Tournament out by next week, but thanks for sticking around all the same!

I used to ride horses as a kid and tbf, even though its been two decades, I never remember reversing the horse so I'm pretty sure they got that detail right. Also I love music that accidentally completely changes the entire mood and atmosphere of a game, eg David Wise's funy monky vgm for DKC

@radpage It goes to show that I really don't know that much about horses, I always just figured they were taught to back up, but I suppose that makes sense ahaha

So, good and bad news. Bad news, Yggdra Union review won't be the next one. This game is huge, and I've had issues with my method of playing the game, forcing a restart. Instead, the next two titles are going to be themed around a certain duet of films releasing in the next week... so look forward to those! After those two, Yggdra Union review will be next!

Sorry for no review this week! I'm back at work which has tired me out, and also to be completly honest, I've been playing waaaay to much Celeste. Yggdra Union should be out next week, so look forward to that! After that I expect I'll be playing a few more smaller scale games, before we move towards review #50.

Rebelstar Tactical Command is one of my favorite GBA games. I love how they put 90% of the tactical complexity of X-Com 93 into a GBA game. Wild stuff.

I don’t like racers a ton, either, but I do like aimless level grinding enough that this sounds decently enjoyable. The graphics are wild, too!

Game Boy Abyss returns next week. Still struggling a bit wtih my mental health, but rather then playing a bunch of lower quality, 'filler' games, I figured I'd help cheer myself up by looking at some genuinely well recieved games. Need for Speed Underground is next week, and the next two games will be Yggdra Union and Rebelstar Tactical Command! Look forward to it!

Sorry to say, Game Boy Abyss is taking another hiatus. I haven't been in a great mental health space the last few weeks and it's not fair to my readers to just be stringing y'all along expecting another review, and it isn't fair to the games themselves for me to force out a review every week or so. I don't expect I'll be off for to long, I just need some time to get my head in order. Thanks for reading, always :)

Take care, and take your time, too! It'll be exciting to see whatever is next whenever it happens.

Y'know, with my Swordcraft review popping up since I - apparently - edited it enough for it to be on my dashboard, maybe when I don't have a review for a week, I can just bump one of the old ones? I dunno. On that note, not sure if there'll be a review next week, work has been kicking my ass and I haven't even picked Game #41 yet.

This game looks so cute- your review really made me want to check it out! I love a good pixel art.

I didn't actually realise that I'd updated this page, this was just some background editing ahahaha. Glad y'all like seeing it again!
It's crazy that I get a bunch of views just from people finding my reviews on google - the fact that my reviews come up on the first or second set of google reviews in just insane anyway.

I have a special fondness of the weird experimental action-adventure-RPG esque Bomberman games. One of my absolute favourite N64 games for instance is Bomberman 64: The Second Attack which I believe is criminally underrated! By the sounds of things Tournament is similar (though 2nd Attack is all dungeons so to speak, no overworld), so Tournament is something I'm interested in trying.
Oh I also found the comments about playing Bomberman for the story to be really funny because the story is a big draw of Second Attack for me, that game's story is so ridiculously over-the-top and melodramatic like a typical save-the-world JRPG plot completely out of place in a cutesy action-adventure puzzle game and it's both hilarious and kind of actually unironically hype as it escalates to the stratosphere ahaha
I really want to play the 64 Bomberman games, they look like such a vibe and unique experience for that console.
Sounds interesting, I spent many summers playing 4 player SNES Bomberman 1-5 with my family but they were nothing like this. I've never played 64 or any 3D Bombermans either!
