Every week I do this thing called Niche Fighter Monday where I play, analyze, and celebrate niche and indie fighting games.
I'd love for y'all to come crowd into The Digital Basement on Monday afternoons. 🕹

You don't have to write a huge review either. A couple of lines about the games style or how it made you feel will go a long way.

Can't stress how much this helps out your favorite indie games/dev!
Friendly reminder to leave reviews on the indie games you play🫡 in the past two weeks, we saw the releases of The Skeletons Are Fighting, Parable Academy and Heatwave. With less than 10 reviews, they are kept out of the Steam discovery queue. If you enjoyed them, leave a mark!

Tappuri has achieved peak game design.
Monmesu-bu Club Beast Prison is a 2DFM game, and a part of Tappuri Doubutsuen's Lobster series!
Typical of Tappuri games, Beast Prison is heavily influenced by VSAV - albeit with an ABCS layout - featuring a Magic-Series Combo-System, a snappy pace, and fairly big damage!
Also, the roster is crazy

Mike here committing the unpardonable sin of taking the words "housing is a human right" seriously when the people who use those words don't actually mean it to be taken seriously.
New MMI piece: We look at the 3.5 million people in Canada who live in a home that is too small to meet their needs, and how a mismanaged push by governments and urban planners towards densification is at odds with the human right to housing.

Man, the changing of the season is doing a number on my mental health this year.
(And also you know... *gestures wildly at the world*)
Trying to just focus on the people and things that matter.

If you like fighting games with both strong offensive and defensive options, assists, and multiple fighting styles/grooves to choose from, you should play my game when it comes out in 2 days :)
And there's a visual novel attached to it too I guess

Heatwave's last major update, will be available on NOVEMBER 12!!! It will also be releasing on steam then as well. Most notably, it will contain a ~100k word visual novel story mode, and 4 new "secret" characters, along with balance changes, and bug fixes. ❤️

Here's a combo with another one of the new secret characters, "Trois", he's Sparrow's boss? roommate? sugar daddy? it's not very clear... to find out how they really feel about each other, you'll have to play through the game's story mode :)

I started learning the Castlevania 2 Simon's Quest Any% speedrun between matches of Mortal Kombat XL with the homies. This means I was playing on leverless, and I wonder if it's worth switching to pad for my attempts. 🤔
