This isn't the game you think it is. It's The Looker (🔊 SOUND ON for a genius maze puzzle)
If you loved The Witness you'll love this. Proper laughs and affectionate parody.

I loved Children of the Sun. I’m not into dark games at the mo, but COTS’s scuzzy, buzzing commitment to it all - with the brilliant bullet-bending conceit - makes it totally thrilling. A good length and great finale level too, nails the landing.

Lonely Mountains Downhill is magic. Looks, sounds, feels so great that the inevitable falling down is ok, cos you’re outside in glorious fresh air. All that lovely slapstick & enjoyable perseverance too.

The iRacing Arcade demo totally sold me on it. Feels like the same proper handling of Circuit Superstars. Which is good, because Circuit Superstars rules.

Extremely rare b-roll footage of an Electronics Boutique in late 1994 or early 1995. Enjoy it!
I found this among 40TB of files from Digital Pictures' archive.

I've never felt so left out from the almost universal love for a game as I do with Hades ☹️ I can see it's excellent in so many ways. I know that many people can't be wrong. But I've tried it about 5 times now and each time feel nothing that has me think 'this is about to click' 😐 Good dog, though.
