Reviewing @necrosoftgames.com's Demonschool after it was delayed by Silksong was REALLY HARD, because I had to spend three months resisting my urge to recommend it to everyone.
But now its finally coming out tomorrow and its great and you should play it. checkpointgaming.net/reviews/2025...

Demonschool Review - Top marks
Demonschool gets high marks for its inventive and tightly designed combat system; it also offers assured, cohesive design and presentation.

I think Retro Studios have earned a lot more good will than they're getting today. People liked the federation stuff in Prime 3.
I get worries but people acting like you have this yap fest NPC telling you where to go at all times is not what the game is. That doesn't happen. Did I play a dif demo?

In Super Mario Galaxy, the stars on the letters of the logo spell "u r mr gay", while for the movie it says "he mr gay". This is because you are watching Mario, not playing him.
