i am FINALLY starting to have a little time to sink into Rita's Rewind and my early findings are that it's even more fun and responsive than when I played it back in November. In particular the super scaler levels feel really nicely tuned.

We just released Legends of Boom on Steam and if you like Midway 90s' styled arcade action mixed with a card battle/RTS hybrid, then you're going to love this! It features a disgruntled muppet voiced by Tim Kitzrow, from NBA Jam! Boomshakalaka!
