Some additional information about Medabots Classics has been revealed in this week’s edition of Famitsu.

Firstly, development is stated to have been exactly 78% complete.

There are postgame bonuses for completing the main stories, such as being able to replay the game with every part unlocked and even gaining access to phantom parts that were never available before. There is something called a “Meda-Album” which functions something like a Pokedex, compiling all the parts you obtained in the main stories. You can save and load at any time, and you can skip pesky low-level battles (or high-level ones) using a “Force Robobattle Skip” feature. Wireless local multiplayer has been included for battles and trading.

Medabot Classics versions Kabuto and Kuwagata will release in Japan for 3DS on December 21st, 2017.

No, this isn’t about the Japanese versions of Pokemon.

Red Game Without a Great Name and Green Game: Timeswapper by iFun4All are both receiving a port to the Switch within the next few weeks.

These challenging games can be purchased for $2.99 each on Steam. Below are the trailers and brief descriptions for both games.

Teleport yourself into the most hardcore game this fall. Try to imagine a game simple in its basics, but demanding from the very first level, where everything might kill you. Even the camera and the main protagonist are against you as both of them constantly move forward. Add some barbed wire, spikes, and sawblades and you’ll get Red Game Without a Great Name. And in this game you will die a lot.

The game features fifty carefully designed levels. You will need to make your way through a hostile world – the blades of windmills will slice the bird, pistons shall squash it and spiked gates are going to crush it. Control time to deactivate traps and activate the steam generators that will change your movement direction. Find one of many ways to the end of each level. Plan your route and show your reflex skills to get through the most difficult paths and gather all the gears.
