Baby Steps starts as an elaborate shitpost before slowly revealing itself to be a sincere game about male insecurity. A deconstruction of the kind of idealized picture of manhood that video games helped create wrapped in a terrific slapstick comedy. My review. www.polygon.com/baby-steps-r...

I reviewed Despelote, which is at once the smallest game and also the biggest thing in the world. It's a towering achievement and something that will live with me for the rest of my days. My rave for Digital Trends: www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/despe...
Despelote review: miraculous slice-of-life soccer game pulls a hat trick
Despelote is an autobiographical and sumptuously rendered slice-of-life game that shoots for gold and handily gets there.

⚽ despelote is OUT NOW on Steam, PlayStation 4 & 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Coming soon to Switch.

A bittersweet and sometimes dreamy semi-autobiographical tale of youth taking place in 2001 Quito, Ecuador.
