Yeah, I recommend picking this up immediately. It's a fantastic take on Lumines and probably my favorite version since the PSP original. Gorgeous visuals, great music and sound and excellent VR.
Lumines Arise out now, $35.99 on Steam (10% off launch discount) buff.ly/EVvaMXv
$39.99 US PSN buff.ly/H7Ut3jc

My quick impressions: Enjoying it overall with the Tetris Effect flavor, challenge mode levels has interesting varied mechanics (one level only drops pieces on the music beat)

Lumines Arise is one of the best puzzle games we have played. It brings back the classic Lumines gameplay, ups the ante with visuals, and is a joy to play on the #SteamDeck.

Ahead of the release of Lumines: Arise on Nov. 11, creator Tetsuya Mizuguchi believes there is still so much to explore when it comes to synesthesia in gaming.

Started to watch Down Cemetery Road, to fill that Slow Horses hole.

It’s bad. Poor acting, hammy and stiff. Disappointed.

I just want to put this out into the universe.

If you are a homebrew developer of a GB, GBC, GBA, NES, SMS, MD/Genesis, N64, or PS1 game with a free version or a free demo of you game, I’d love to ship it with SuperStation as a physical or digital demo disk.
This is a very impressive PS1 game by @eliasdaler.bsky.social running on SuperStation.

Pitching your game to print media? Here’s a thread full of tips!

Always send screenshots in PNG format. JPEG compression blurs sharp edges and creates ugly artefacts that look even worse once printed at 300 DPI.

Where possible, submit your screenshots at 4K resolution. Or native res for pixel art.
